Ballyfin

With a glorious history that includes a painstaking, nine-year restoration, Ballyfin regains its throne as one of Ireland’s most lavish country retreats. Reigning over a sprawling 614-acre estate dotted with follies and grottoes, this 20-bedroom Regency manor house has been authentically refurbished, from the Chippendale mirrors right down to the antique mosaic floors. Food is sourced from the garden and local farms; guests may even pick their own fruit or collect eggs. Activities range from falconry and fishing the tranquil lake to enjoying cooking demonstrations and whiskey tastings in the cellar.

Why we love it: Beauty as far as the eye can see with excellent dining, masterful service and rooms never to be forgotten.
