    Heritage Private Hire

    Killruddery is one of Ireland’s great living estates. Our family-run historic house and 17th-Century Gardens offer a rare opportunity to experience a remarkable heritage setting.

    The Orangery is our glass domed conservatory inspired by London’s Crystal Palace. Overlooking a landscape of ornamental planting, the classical statuary provides an iconic setting before a gala dinner in the Grain Store. Discover secret garden settings across the Estate: The Sylvan Theatre, with green hedge walls and ornate gates; the Bowling Green, sunken and enclosed by ancient Yew and Holm Oak.

    Every event begins with a conversation about your vision. Contact our Events Team to arrange a private tour of the Estate.

    Christmas Celebrations

    Host your Christmas celebration at Killruddery.

    Our former dairy and horse yard is home to our spectacular Grain Store barn. Arrive through a festoon-lit courtyard with open fire pits before gathering for seasonal farm-to-fork dining inspired by our Gardens, Farm and local producers.

    Killruddery Flower Studio decks the Yard with foraged berries and rustic branches, while our Events Team curates a bespoke countryside Christmas celebration that captures the beauty of this remarkable heritage setting.

    We had incredible feedback and praise from our clients and from many of the guests who attended, we repeatedly heard "it was the best event we've ever had in Presidents Club history". It was such a pleasure to work with Gemma over the past many months. Thank you for all you did to make this happen.

    Helen Cooke - Odyssey International

    Killruddery Yard was the perfect setting for our Christmas Gala. Gemma and the whole team were accommodating, thoughtful and professional throughout planning. The night ran seamlessly, with exceptional food and seasonal decor. We look forward to returning next year.
