Killeen Castle – A World-Class Golf and Leisure Destination

Located just 35 minutes from both Dublin Airport and Dublin City Centre, this remarkable destination combines golfing excellence, luxury accommodation, and rich Irish heritage - all overlooked by a magnificent 12th-century castle visible from every hole.

A Championship Golf Experience

Host venue of the HotelPlanner Irish Challenge in 2025, 2026, and 2027 - and proud host of the Solheim Cup, Ladies Irish Opens, and multiple PGA events - Killeen Castle is consistently ranked among the Top 3 Parkland Courses in Ireland, most recently being awarded ‘Best Parkland Golf Course in Ireland’ at the 2025 IGTOA Awards.

Designed by the legendary Jack Nicklaus, this par-72 championship course epitomizes modern golfing excellence. Its immaculate fairways, strategic layout, and breathtaking views make it both a fair challenge and an unforgettable experience for golfers of all abilities. Tour-standard practice facilities, a state-of-the-art clubhouse, and luxurious locker rooms ensure a seamless experience from arrival to the 18th green.

Luxury Accommodation – Hunter’s Yard Lodges

Nestled beside the castle’s manicured walled gardens, the Hunter’s Yard Lodges offer stylish, 4-star accommodation just steps from the clubhouse. Each of the six elegant lodges features contemporary interiors, individual entrances, and ample parking - ideal for golfers seeking convenience and comfort within the tranquil estate surroundings.

For extended stays, 26 premium lodge guestrooms provide all the essentials of modern luxury, including air conditioning, smart TVs, rain showers, and premium Irish toiletries - perfect for unwinding after a day on the fairways or exploring the 6km of woodland trails that weave through the castle grounds.
