Opened in 1978 by the Bowe Family Marlfield is a charming example of a fine Regency period house. Set on 36 acres of gardens and woodlands it is just one hour south of Dublin and close to miles of golden beaches. Marlfield has a great variety of accommodation including 18 beautifully presented bedrooms in the Regency period house and a two-bedroom fully renovated Lodge in its own garden with contemporary living areas. In December 2020 five unique Pond Suites, the epitome of a modern country house experience were added on the duck pond. The stand-alone suites are surrounded by wildlife and nature in a lush wooded setting encompassing picture-perfect views of the pond and its wildlife. Marlfield is surrounded by extensive gardens including a tennis court and a kitchen and rose garden with nearly 2 km of walks.
Award-winning dining options include the long-established Conservatory fine dining restaurant with frescoed walls and sparkling silver and the stylish but more casual Duck Restaurant set in courtyard buildings with a south-facing terrace overlooking the kitchen garden. While the conservatory offers classical fine dining with modern influences the Duck menu features a variety of European and middle eastern dishes including steaks, fish and salads overlooking the kitchen garden.
Marlfield is also available for exclusive use weddings or smaller private dinner party style weddings and for think tank business meetings.
Things to Do: Relax over a cocktail on the terrace, savour afternoon tea in the drawing-room, ready a book by a blazing fire. Be more adventurous and discover the grounds or visit the many beaches and woods nearby. Wexford walking, cycling, heritage and garden trails can be searched online. Visit the medieval city of Kilkenny and its environs, County Wicklow "The Garden of Ireland", and the monastic settlement at Glendalough. It is surrounded by many well-known golf courses including Druids Glen, The European, Woodenbridge, Seafield and Courtown.
