Castle Durrow, Georgian country house in County Laois, Ireland
Set on 30 acres of gardens and woodland, Castle Durrow features grey and blue cut stone construction across three floors built from limestone.
Colonel William Flower initiated construction in 1712, completing the manor house in 1726 before becoming the first Baron Castle Durrow.
The formal gardens reflect 18th-century design principles with traditional landscaping techniques incorporating structured pathways and geometric patterns.
The country house hotel provides online reservations for overnight stays, dining experiences, and accepts Blue Book Vouchers for payment.
Between 1929 and 1987, the mansion served as St Fintan's College and Convent after the Bank of Ireland acquired it from the Flower family.
