"Let the moment dictate the mood.  There are no pressures, there is nowhere you have to be - there is nothing you have to do, except relish the langour..."

"Thank you all for an amazing stay!" Kate & Kelly McMahon USA June 2010

"...guests need very little persuading to retire into comfy sofas and pints of Guinness.  A spa and cookery school complete one of the most welcoming atmospheres I've come across in an Irish country house hotel - Dunbrody is tone elevated to an art.  I'm wary of celebrity chefs but the Dundons balance profile and product with aplomb."   - Pol O'Conghaile, Irish Independent 17th January 2009.

"A wonderful peaceful stay, Excellent food & service.  Beautiful surroundings but too short a stay.  We'll be back" - Tony & Kay Cullen 14 September 2009

Set in 300 acres of beautiful parkland, Dunbrody House in an enchantingly intimate 1830s Georgian manor located near the small fishing village of Arthurstonw on County Wexford south coast.  Ancestral home to seven generations of the the Chichester Family, the house has a long and well-established tradition of hospitality.  A warm reception awaits you here at Dunbrody - an oasis of tranquility located on the dramatic Hook Peninsula.

Fresh flowers, crackling turf fires in period fireplaces, relaxed elegance... Dunbrody is a charming small hotel with a character and atmosphere all of its own.  Stroll the woodland walks, explore the kitchen garden or drop in on Delago the pot-bellied pig, feed the chickens or just lounge away the afternoon with a good book on the sunny terrace, nodding off now and again.

Originally the ancestral home to 7 generations of the Chichester Family, Dunbrody has been run as a small luxury hotel since 1997 by husband and wife team Catherine & Kevin Dundon. From small beginnings Dunbrody now offers a choice of luxury accommodations with 22 bedrooms and suites, the The Harvest Room Restaurant, an informal dining option with Dundons Seafood Bar & Terrace, the Dunbrody Cookery School, Spa and a beautiful little gem called the Lodge available to book on a self catering basis or with a full concierge service from this luxury 4 star hotel in Wexford.

Dunbrody has also put a new twist on luxury pampering with its boutique spa. All treatments, services and products have been exclusively designed by wellbeing anti-aging experts Elemis in London and organic USPA from Australia to enhance the luxurious hotel environment and offer guests a deeply indulgent experience.  Not just for residents, you can also come and just book individual treatments or splash out on a half day or full day spa package.

Dunbrody cookery school offers a wonderful choice of one and two day courses run by the very popular Edward Hayden.   Details of the new Spring and Summer programme are now available and the new week long Masterclass is already in demand so book early.

Food is always a feature at Dunbrody and the return of the original Table d'Hote Menu has proved so popular we will continue this offering for Spring and Summer allowing for the hotel's gardens to produce a daily selection of fruit, vegetables and herbs.  Truffles are eagarly anticipated next year and will make Dunbrody the first Irish producer of year round truffles. 

Located a mere two hours drive from both Dublin via the N11 and R733 and Cork International Airports via the N25 and only 20 minutes from Waterford City via the Passage East Car Ferry Dunbrody is easily accessible from both North and West.
