The luxurious five-star Lyrath Estate, in Kilkenny is set on 170 acres of mature parkland complete with exquisite lakes, rustic walkways and historic gardens. The large variety of guestrooms feature understated comfort and minimal style decor offering residents the perfect place for a restful break away. At its heart is a charming 17th century Manor House which has been sympathetically restored and now sits comfortably alongside a contemporary hotel housing 141 bedrooms.
The property includes two restaurants, Yew which serves classic modern Irish and European cuisine, The Grill and Bar which is a casual, bistro style dining experience with a strong emphasis on steaks, gourmet burgers, delicious lobster fresh from the tank and a wonderful selection of cocktails. There is also Tupper’s Bar, a traditional style, cosy bar, and The Conservatory which serves lunch and informal food in the evening. The newest addition is Lady Charlotte’s Drawing Room – an elegant room in the Manor House, where delightful afternoon tea is served. The décor here is inspired by the botanicals of the estate and has an eclectic and stylish design.
Lyrath Estate offers a selection of onsite activities for guests to enjoy such as the award-winning Oasis Spa and relaxing thermal suite. The spa incorporates a range of luxurious face and body treatments for both men and women. The thermal suite in the spa includes a number of heating and cooling experiences including a stunning outdoor hydrotherapy pool which looks out on the mature private gardens.
