Newbridge House

Set on 350 acres of parkland just 12 miles north of Dublin city centre, Newbridge House is a delightful 18th century manor that boasts one of the finest Georgian interiors in Ireland, along with a traditional farm and demesne.

Newbridge House was built in 1740 to a design by James Gibbs for the Archbishop of Dublin and contains elaborate stucco plasterwork by Robert West. Each room open to the public has its own style of antique and original furniture - indeed the house appears more or less as it did 150 years ago.

The period atmoshpere of the house is further accentuated by the presence of a fully restored courtyard, surrounded by a dairy, estate worker’s house, carpenter’s shop and a blacksmith’s forge, all displaying nineteenth century tools and implements.

The grounds also contain a 29 acre traditional farm, complete with farmyard animals, a delight to any young visitor and perfect for school tours and large groups.
