Orlagh House - Hidden Ireland

A Georgian mansion built by Dublin snuff merchant Lundy Foot back in 1790. Frequent visitors to the house included the Great Emancipator Daniel O’Connell, Eoin Mac Neill, Padraig Pearse and William Smith O’Brian, among many other famous figures from Anglo-Irish history.

A truly unique house set on 45 acres in the foothills of the Dublin Mountains, with spectacular views over Dublin City and stretching out as far as the Irish Sea. We are only 25 minutes from Dublin Airport and from Dublin city centre. The house has been lovingly and tastefully restored in recent years, with large drawing and reception rooms and open fires. Our beautiful dining room sits 20 people at our regency table. There is a large games room in the basement of the house with table tennis, pool table, and a full-sized snooker table.

There is lots to do in the immediate area including numerous hiking trails both on the estate and in proximity including the Dublin Way and the Wicklow Way. We have an equestrian centre next door with reduced rates for guests and some of Dublin’s most infamous pubs are within 10 minutes of the house, with great local food, traditional music, and Irish dancing.

Orlagh House specialises in Exclusive Rental and is most suited to group bookings and with 14 bedrooms is ideal for large family holidays or celebrations. The house really is one-of-a-kind.

“Our large extended family of 11 adults and 8 children spent a magical 6 days in Orlagh House in comfort and style…Orlagh House is in a magnificent setting with panoramic views of Dublin, there are lots of walks on the grounds and nearby areas including hell fire club and Massey’s wood. We also had a great afternoon horse riding in the nearby Rathfarnham Equestrian centre….I would highly recommend Orlagh House for special get together and entertaining.”
