Local Attractions
Adare Manor
Adare Manor, a neo-Gothic mansion (1832) set in a park, which is now largely occupied by a golf course, was converted to a luxury hotel some years ago. The principal rooms, including the hall and picture gallery, are open to the public. The tea room provides pleasant views of the gardens and terraces. In the park, on the banks of the river, are the extensive ruins of Desmond Castle (13th C.), a romantic sight with its semicircular towers and lushly overgrown walls

Adare Heritage Centre
Adare, snuggled in a wooded setting among the rich quite farmlands of the Golden Vale by the river Maigue, is a model village dating from the time of the Norman conquest. It has been home to the Earls of Dunraven (the Quin Family) for over three centuries. Thatched cottages line its broad street, punctuated with beautiful stone buildings and picturesque ruins. The River Maigue flows under a graceful stone bridge and medieval monasteries quietly count the passing centuries.

Having celebrated its first decade, it began the next one by moving just 10 minutes drive away to Echo Lodge, a spacious Victorian country residence set on ten acres of mature trees, shrubbery, kitchen garden and orchard along with luxury accommodation.
