Retreat to a peaceful golf hotel with chic interiors, delicious dining, and a fantastic location amid a peaceful Kildare estate - includes breakfast, dinner, and more
  • Kildare county charm: Nestled amid a spectacular 550-acre estate in Kildare, Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort is a relaxing country retreat with beautiful surroundings. Immerse yourself in the perfectly landscaped lawns and gardens and enjoy boutique-style rooms set beside a 19th-century Italianate mansion.

Golf enthusiasts can take advantage of the resort’s 18-hole golf course, designed by Ryder Cup star Darren Clarke.

  • Dining with a view: In the evenings you can unwind with delicious dishes in the Sundial Bar & Bistro or, when the weather is good, on the balcony, where you can enjoy stunning views over the estate. Alternatively, spend your weekends amid the luxurious setting of the Moyvalley Clubhouse, and enjoy refreshing drinks and something to eat alongside panoramic 360 degree views of the golf course. Afternoon Tea also tempts with delightful homemade scones.

Balyna Estate, Moyvalley, Co. Kildare, W91 Y803, Ireland

A tranquil gem within the Irish countryside, Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort enjoys a great location for both indoor and outdoor pursuits. When you’re not practising your swing on the golf course, there’s plenty of pretty spots for a picnic, or you could enjoy a scenic bike ride along the 6.2 kilometre track which winds throughout the resort’s green 500-acre estate. Known as ‘The Thoroughbred County’, Kildare also boasts multiple race-courses and equestrian centres, so you can get up close and personal with one of Ireland’s greatest sporting traditions. Alternatively, if you travel a little further afield you’ll find that Kildare Village offers the chance for some retail therapy, Meath entices with its intriguing archaeological sites, and less than an hour away, Dublin awaits with its impressive architecture and traditional Irish bars.
