Property overview
First built in 1725, Kilmon House is a fine example of early Georgian domestic architecture. The original settlement dates to 1540, leaving years of interesting history associated with the property. Kilmon is a fascinating venue – a theatrical, literary and horticultural celebration. Dating back to 1780, Kilmon was the birthplace of poet laureate C. Day–Lewis. This historic house with breath–taking gardens is available for exclusive hire. Hidden in a valley, and only an hour’s drive from Dublin city centre.

Accommodation
Kilmon House has four individually styled bedrooms all with ensuite. Extra guests can be accommodated in the secret fifth bedroom - the Sir John Hurt. Given the opulence of Kilmon’s lavishly furnished rooms, it is farmhouse style family kitchen & traditional dining room is reassuringly homely. With fireplaces in every room made from Irish marble Kilkenny Black, Kilmon is as cosy & snug in winter as it is alfresco in summer. The historic gardens at Kilmon have been expanded with an Arts & Crafts influence to include an impressive variety of garden rooms & pedimented yew cloisters.
