A labour of love, at Ballyknocken we pride ourselves on offering a warm welcome and friendly service offering seven beautifully appointed bedrooms all equipped to four star standard reflecting the Victorian style of the premises.

Conveniently located in the Garden of Ireland, Ballyknocken House is the perfect place to explore County Wicklow from, hike the Wicklow Way, play a round of Golf or take a short drive to Glendalough, Sally Gap or Powerscourt Waterfall before returning to the comfort of Ballyknocken House.

Alternatively guests can enrol on a cookery course of their choice at the award winning Ballyknocken Cookery School run by celebrity TV chef and food writer, Catherine Fulvio. Catherine has made many media appearances and has her own TV series and soon to come is her book by the same name, “Catherine’s Italian Kitchen”. She is a familiar face on major international TV channels including Discovery, NBC Today Show, The Food Network and BBC Good Food Channel’s “Market Kitchen” to name a few.

Ballyknocken House is listed in the Bridgestone 100 Best Places to Stay in Ireland and in the Georgina Campbell’s Ireland’s Best Places to Eat, Drink and Stay. Located only 29 miles south of Dublin City, it is the ideal location for a weekend break or a longer stay while exploring the surrounding countryside.

Ballyknocken offers comfort in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere in elegant, authentic country house accommodation where there is time to relax and read, sit and talk, explore the Wicklow Way, tour the Garden County, embark on a culinary experience or simply chill out in front of an open fire with an after dinner drink.

We look forward welcoming to you and do let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more memorable.
