For generations, Burtown has been a family home, shaped by gardens, art, the changing seasons and a deep connection to the surrounding landscape. Today, we invite guests to experience the estate in many different ways—whether staying for a few nights, dining in The Green Barn, wandering through the gardens and farm walks, discovering something beautiful in The Burtown Shop or gathering with family and friends for a special occasion. Whatever brings you here, Burtown is a place to slow down, explore and return to throughout the seasons.

Stay on the Estate

Stay a little longer and discover Burtown beyond a day visit.

Our beautifully restored Stable Yard House and Studio Apartment offer guests the opportunity to experience the quiet rhythm of the estate from morning until evening.

Wake to birdsong, wander the gardens before breakfast, explore the farm walks at your own pace and finish the day with dinner in The Green Barn. Staying at Burtown is about far more than a place to sleep—it is about becoming part of the life of the estate.

The Green Barn

The Green Barn

At the heart of Burtown is The Green Barn, where seasonal ingredients, thoughtful cooking and warm hospitality come together in one of Ireland’s most distinctive dining spaces.

Whether joining us for breakfast beneath the wisteria, a relaxed lunch or dinner with friends, every menu reflects the changing seasons and the landscape that surrounds us.

The Burtown Shop

More than simply a shop, The Burtown Shop is a carefully curated collection inspired by the estate itself.

Discover artisan foods, beautiful interiors, furniture, garden pieces and thoughtfully chosen objects for home and garden. Whether you’re searching for something special or simply browsing, the shop has been created to inspire long after your visit to Burtown has ended.

Gather

Some occasions deserve a setting that feels both beautiful and deeply personal.

At Burtown, people come together to celebrate, create, learn and connect. From private dining and family celebrations to corporate retreats, seasonal events and gatherings in our new Stream Barn, every occasion is shaped by the character of the estate rather than a traditional venue.

To preserve the rhythm of Burtown as a living family estate, we host only a very small number of weddings each year. This allows every celebration to receive our complete attention while protecting the atmosphere that makes the estate so special throughout the seasons.

The Gardens at Burtown

For generations, the gardens have been at the heart of life at Burtown, evolving season by season as part of the wider estate.

Today, they continue to be carefully maintained as both a place of beauty and a living landscape. To help preserve their character and tranquillity, the gardens are now enjoyed primarily by guests staying on the estate and by pre-booked groups visiting by prior arrangement.

For those wishing to experience more of Burtown’s remarkable landscape, our farm walks offer a journey through woodland, meadows, sculpture and history, inviting visitors to discover the estate beyond the formal gardens at their own pace.

A Life That Changes With The Seasons

The rhythm of Burtown changes throughout the year.

Spring brings blossom, bulbs and the first fresh flavours from the garden. Summer fills the borders with colour and opens the landscape for long walks and evenings outdoors. Autumn transforms the estate with rich colour, harvest menus and changing light, while winter brings fires, slower days and a quieter beauty all of its own. However many times you visit, Burtown is never quite the same place twice.
