Our Ethos

Co-founded by Anthony and Fionnuala Brabazon, Killruddery Estate Enterprises Ltd has built upon over 400 years of family stewardship.

Over the past decade, Anthony and Fionnuala have been working to build a soil-based community business, committed to Earth-friendly choices.

Killruddery has always had a family home and kitchen table at its heart. The culinary garden and on-site kitchen now evolve together, hand-in-hand.

MISSION

Killruddery is a family-run biodiverse farm, garden, hospitality and lifestyle business - rooted in our historic Wicklow Estate. We steward land with activity that is sustainable for its structure and environment. We grow with the seasons, sharing artful, community spaces where Nature and culture thrive.

VISION

For every guest to leave Killruddery with a sense of connection to the land and  a belonging in our community.

EDIBLE ESTATE
We are growing with the Seasons. You are invited to partake in the abundance of Killruddery's natural environment. Our food and flowers are grown here and locally - in tune with nature and offered in a gesture of welcome.
GROWN & GATHERED
From the rustic, Estate-recycled materials we use to style our interiors, to the practices across our biodiverse farm and garden, to the seasonality of our menus: we grow what we can ourselves and partner with exceptional local growers and makers for the rest.
ARTFUL HOSPITALITY
We are growing Killruddery Yard into a community-focused, sustainable lifestyle destination. Our arms are open wide to give all visitors a warm, family welcome. We hold a deep and thorough commitment to providing exceptional service and community spirit. We take pride in creating beautiful, shared spaces with an artful eye and attention to detail.
FOOD PROVENANCE
We sow, grow and rear on our biodiverse farm and garden. We have cultivated systems to ensure that the food we cook is all about maximising nutritious flavour and minimising food miles. Our menus are ingredient-led and grown here; marrying season with landscape.
A SENSE OF BELONGING
We wish to provide a space where community thrives; a place of stimulation, socialisation and joy. As we progress development at Killruddery, all our designs are grounded in the aesthetics of our heritage house and gardens. We wish to give our guests a sense of being part of an environment that weaves together structures, pathways and plantings - where one part flows seamlessly into another, and each belongs to the other.
SUSTAINABILITY
Our 2025 Georgina Campbell Sustainability Award has recognised our commitment to Food Miles and Earth Conscious Farming. We farm regeneratively and garden without the use of chemicals. We nurture our soil. Across all our services, we focus on no waste cycles, compostable packaging, eco cleaning and growing at one with Nature.
