Overview

Roam the Irish landscape in the noble surrounds of Powerscourt Estate located in the Garden of Ireland, County Wicklow.

Established in the 13th century, the original castle underwent large-scale changes 500 years later when famed architect Richard Cassels was commissioned to redefine the property.

Renowned for its grand Palladian design, the 47-acre grounds are just as impressive. Here, forested valleys, ornamental lakes and hidden hollows signpost a stroll to Ireland's tallest waterfall.
