    About this property

    • The Killeen Estate
      With a rich history dating back to 1181, Killeen Castle is among Ireland's most historic estates. Originally built by Hugh de Lacy, the estate later became the ancestral home of the Plunkett family, the Earls of Fingal, until 1951. Today, the estate has been thoughtfully redeveloped into one of Ireland's premier country living locations, featuring an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, a clubhouse with dining and bar facilities, and beautiful woodland walks.

      The estate is currently being further enhanced with the development of a luxury hotel within the castle itself.
