Located 10 minutes outside Newry City, Killeavy Castle Estate is set within 350 acres of farm and woodland walks. The Grade A listed Castle and Coach house, derelict for over a decade, was transformed following a £12 million investment now incorporating a 45-guestroom luxury boutique hotel.

Jason Foody, General Manager of Killeavy Castle Estate, said; “After a challenging year for the hospitality industry, we are delighted to have been recognised as Boutique Hotel of the Year by the Golfers Guide to Ireland, acknowledging our commitment to exceptional customer service, our stunning facilities, but most of all our people who make the Killeavy experience truly exceptional.

“We look forward to 2021 with an optimistic mindset and to welcoming all our guests from across Ireland to enjoy Killeavy Castle Estate and all that the local area has to offer, once it is safe to do so.”

For that perfect gift, why not consider a voucher for Killeavy Castle Estate which has no expiry date and can be redeemed for a luxury break, spa, relaxing lunch or dinner in the award-winning restaurant?
