Killeen Castle Hotel & Lodges is a luxurious countryside retreat located in County Meath, just 35 minutes from Dublin Airport. Set within a magnificent 600-acre estate dominated by the beautifully restored 12th-century Killeen Castle, the property offers an exclusive and tranquil escape surrounded by rolling parkland, woodlands and world-class golf. Home to Jack Nicklaus’ only signature course in Ireland, Killeen Castle is a premier destination for golfers seeking elegance, privacy and championship-quality facilities.
Accommodation at Killeen Castle is provided through a collection of spacious, modern and beautifully finished lodge-style suites, offering comfort, style and contemporary convenience. Each lodge is designed with generous living space, premium bedding, large bathrooms and scenic views of the estate. The aesthetic blends refined country luxury with the relaxed feel of a personal retreat, making it ideal for golf groups, couples and families.
The heart of the estate is the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, consistently ranked among Ireland’s top parkland layouts. Known for its immaculate conditioning, sweeping fairways, dramatic bunkering and strategic design, the course has hosted major events including the 2011 Solheim Cup. For golfers staying at the hotel, having such a world-class layout on the doorstep creates a complete and premium stay-and-play experience.
In addition to golf, the estate offers serene walking trails, manicured gardens and peaceful countryside views. The iconic castle itself stands as a stunning centrepiece — while not operating as a hotel, it houses exclusive event spaces and contributes to the atmospheric sense of heritage and grandeur throughout the property.
Guests can dine in the elegant lodge restaurant or relax in the cosy clubhouse, which serves high-quality food and drinks in a warm, stylish setting. Service throughout the estate is friendly, professional and tailored to delivering a memorable guest experience.
