2023 Award Winners VISITOR ATTRACTION 2023

Mount Congreve House and Gardens & The Stables Café Kilmeaden Co Waterford

Ireland’s Visitor Attractions have been moving up to a new level of late, lifting the destination appeal of their regions and not only delighting visitors but also creating a real sense of pride in local communities. Good food has not always been a given, but that is changing. And no better example is to be found than Mount Congreve House and Gardens in Co Waterford. Following a €7m renovation, the legendary property reopened in spring 2023, with The Stables Café, in an atmospheric glass-roofed courtyard, operated by the famed CLIFF team, of Cliff House Hotel in Ardmore and Cliff at Lyons estate in Kildare. Prepare to be delighted by the estate-produced and local food offered, and much else besides.
