The castle consists of a restored Great Hall and medieval Undercroft, a tall battlement tower and lookout posts, other separate buildings include stables, an old coach house and a folly. One of the most attractive features is the garden, a formal 17th-century layout with box hedges, yews and mop heads.

About the area
It is often visited on a weekend trip, but rushing around is not the best way to experience Dublin. When Ireland joined the European Union, an economic boom began that flourished in the ‘Celtic Tiger’ years of the 1990s – fashion, the arts, food and Irish culture all blossomed, turning Dublin into one of the world’s hottest city destinations.
