Review
Killruddery House & Gardens in Bray, Co. Wicklow, is one of Ireland’s most captivating heritage estates, offering something for everyone across its remarkable 800 acres. Home to the Brabazon family since 1618, the estate is steeped in history, with the Earl & Countess of Meath and Lord Ardee and his family, continuing a proud lineage rarely matched in Ireland. A tour of the house reveals centuries of legacy, while the gardens, meticulously maintained, offer a tranquil yet awe-inspiring experience.
