About

Bantry House & Garden is a magnificent stately home perched on the edge of Bantry Bay, offering visitors a unique blend of Irish heritage, elegant Georgian architecture, and beautifully curated gardens. Since its opening to the public in 1946, the house has been lovingly preserved by the White family, whose historic collection of furniture and art is displayed throughout the estate. Visitors can explore the house’s original furnishings, stroll through seven terraced gardens featuring a central fountain, statues, and panoramic views of the Caha Mountains, and discover the charming walled garden. The estate also hosts a range of events, from concerts to wedding celebrations, and offers B&B accommodation in the East Wing for a truly immersive experience.
