Kippure Estate, in County Wicklow, is a very special place, offering quality accommodations and facilities privately set in 240 acres of mature woodland and rolling farm pastures.  The estate is surrounded by the wild and beautiful Wicklow Mountains and adjoins the fledging River Liffey. 

Thier onsite accommodation options include self-catering holiday homes, as well as guesthouse accommodation in the Kippure Lodge. We have a number of meeting- and multi-function rooms, an onsite bar, private dining with flexible catering arrangements from picnic to barbecue and multi-course dinners.

Kippure Estate is also one of Ireland's foremost providers of corporate events, team building and outdoor activity days, catering for corporate groups as well as private groups.  If you are looking for a venue set in truly stunning countryside, with comfortable surroundings and a team of welcoming, professional staff, then Kippure Estate is an excellent choice for any type of family function, including smaller to medium sized wedding ceremonies or, alternatively, a larger marquee wedding reception.

Perfectly situated for rambles, hillwalking and enjoying the many attractions of the area, Kippure Estate is less than an hour from Dublin city, Dublin airport and major ferry ports.

County Wicklow (Contae Chill Mhantáin in Irish) lies immediately south of County Dublin, along the east coast of Ireland. Its topography is unusually diverse for Ireland; containing a beautiful mix of rolling mountains, ancient woodlands, cascading waterfalls, sparkling glacial lakes and golden sandy beaches.
