Looking for a Exclusive Rural Retreat in Ireland?
Then Ballinkeele Manor House, with its five
traditional bedrooms, is a stunning family home offering guests
peace and tranquility in the beautiful County Wexford countryside.
Ballinkeele gives you the opportunity to enjoy luxury accommodation
and hospitality of a more gentler age. Bordering on the village of
Ballymurn, Ballinkeele is an ideal location, where the traveller
can slow down, relax, recharge his whole being and also see a
beautiful lesser known part of Ireland.
The Maher family has been farming Ballinkeele since 1808. The Estate
was bought in 1825 and the present house built in 1840.
This exclusive rural retreat is both homely and gracious,
and from the spacious entrance hall, the floating staircase winds
its way up to the bedroom floor. The Master Bedroom
with its original four poster bed and furniture enjoys
fabulous views over the surrounding countryside. Each of the other bedrooms
feature original furniture, large comfortable beds and lovely views. The
Superior Bedrooms all have bath and shower
en-suite. The Deluxe Bedrooms. One has large
bathroom with a bath en-suite the other has a shower en-suite
bathroom. Ballinkeele is annually refurbished.
Keeping the house in traditional styling, the Dining
Room at Ballinkeele House offers guests the opportunity to experience first hand the
country house grandeur of bygone years. Decorated in the period of the
house with candle light reflecting off the beautiful chandelier, guests
can enjoy their evening meal, whilst getting to know or as has happened,
meeting someone after 40 years as they sit around the old family table.
We have a small, but reasonably varied wine list from house ranging up
to Champagne. There maybe some guests, who would wish to dine at a separate
table this can be arranged.
The dining room is suitable for small intimate meetings after the
daily service a good wholesome breakfast. Business guests can also
enjoy the fine cuisine over dinner in a relaxing atmosphere with
their accommodation. Food allergies are catered for and any dislikes.
Please note that the Ballinkeele only has a wine licence.
The garden and places to walk for the guest is gaining more interest
as more paths are being worked on and around the Laundry pond, we
have the lake refilled and hope to have course fishing for guests
sometime this year. Ballinkeele House is perfect for family gatherings
or old friends get together, you will be most welcome.
Ballinkeele is ideally situated for visiting a wide range
of historic and archaeological sites and gardens. Kilkenny,
Waterford, the Wicklow Mountains
and Dublin are all within easy reach and there are
six golf courses within one hour’s drive, and riding stables
just 30 minutes drive. One of John and Margaret’s large
breakfasts will set you up for a day of exploration or
for your special activity be it fishing, golf, horse riding, walking or
go for a cycle.

You can be assured that when staying at Ballinkeele you will sleep
well, eat well, leave with a feeling of well-being and perhaps
even a few regrets at having to leave our little haven of peace
.... but you can always come back again! |
