Killeen Castle, located within the historic Killeen Castle Estate in Dunsany, County Meath, is one of Ireland’s most significant and historically important castles. With a history spanning more than 800 years, this iconic Irish landmark is now entering an exciting new chapter as part of the Romantic Castles of Ireland collection.
Positioned at the heart of a prestigious estate known for its championship Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, scenic woodland setting and elegant private residences, Killeen Castle has long been recognised as a cornerstone of Ireland’s architectural and cultural heritage. A strategic partnership between Romantic Castles of Ireland and the Killeen Castle Estate will see the Castle restored and repositioned as a world-class luxury hospitality destination.
The restoration of Killeen Castle will be led by Romantic Castles of Ireland, drawing on their extensive experience in heritage conservation and luxury castle hotels. The project will carefully preserve the Castle’s architectural character while introducing modern comfort, refined interiors and exceptional guest experiences befitting an international audience.
During the restoration period, with the Castle scheduled to reopen in 2028, all existing operations across the wider Killeen Castle Estate, including golf and residential activity, will continue uninterrupted.
Once complete, Killeen Castle will reclaim its role as the centrepiece of the estate, offering a unique destination where Irish heritage, luxury hospitality and a strong sense of place come together in a truly romantic setting.
Further announcements and updates will be shared as the redevelopment progresses.
