Kinnitty Castle, Gothic revival castle in Kinnitty, Ireland

The castle stands on 650 acres of parkland with 60 acres of rolling lawns near the Slieve Bloom Mountains along the R421 regional road.

The initial castle from 1209 was destroyed and rebuilt by Normans in 1213, with subsequent reconstructions leading to the current Tudor revival structure by architect James Pain.

The castle features the Library Bar, Sli Dala Restaurant, and Drawing Room, offering traditional Irish cuisine prepared with local ingredients for hotel guests.

The hotel contains 37 bedrooms with high ceilings and cast iron roll top baths, functioning as a four-star establishment for weddings and conferences.

An Egyptian-style family mausoleum located on the grounds of St Finnian's church holds the remains of Captain Richard Bernard, a former castle resident.
