A luxury 5 star hotel and golf course created from a 12th century protected structure.
Dunsany, Co. Meath
The redevelopment of the Killeen Castle estate comprised the restoration of a 12th century Norman castle, and the design and construction of a new golf club house built on a signature course designed by world famous golfer Jack Nicklaus.
The project included the construction of a new luxury hotel accommodating 180 guest bedrooms together with function rooms and leisure/space facilities; alterations to the existing pond and stream to accommodate bedroom wings and roadways and the provision of surface car parking in front of Castle and within walled gardens.
