Despite being so popular with both locals and visitors, Powerscourt Estate has a great sense of calm and space. It offers the ultimate peaceful retreat, with plenty to do and see among its 1,000 acres.
Powerscourt House and Gardens
From formal tree plantations to a walled garden, fish pond, grottos and terraces (and not forgetting the pet cemetery!), Powerscourt House & Gardens are stunning in any season. Voted No.3 in the Top 10 Gardens of the World by National Geographic (just behind Versailles…), the Gardens truly live up to their reputation and are just a short stroll along the wooded avenue from Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa.
Powerscourt Waterfall
Powerscourt Waterfall – Ireland’s highest – is truly magnificent! Just 6km from Powerscourt Estate, you can paddle your feet in the babbling river, enjoy a picnic by the trees or even treat yourself to a coffee from the kiosk.
River Walk
During a stay at Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa, guests can enjoy exclusive access to the River Walk – a 5km trail through stunning scenery in a hidden corner of Powerscourt Estate. The walkway is a blissful escape from the buzz of everyday life and is also the perfect setting for a romantic picnic now that the summer is on its way.
Powerscourt Golf Club
Set within the vast grounds of Powerscourt Estate, Powerscourt Golf Club features 36 holes of championship golf. The stunning golf centre consists of two fantastic courses, the East Course and the West Course, both of which feature magnificent views of the Sugar Loaf Mountain, and even glimpses of the Irish Sea.
