Strokestown Park House

Strokestown Park House is an 18th Century mansion which has been faithfully restored. It is unique in that it retains its original furnishings and professionally guided tours allow visitors to experience Georgian Ireland in its purist form.
The Irish National Famine Museum is located in what were once the stable yards of Strokestown Park, an estate owned by the Mahon family from the late 17th century until 1979. When what remained of the original property was purchased, an archive of papers relating to the management of the estate came to light. This collection is now regarded as the single best, private archive on the Great Irish Famine in the world.
The Beautifully restored six acre Walled Gardens have been faithfully resorted to their original splendour. Visitors are given a unique insight into horticultural practices and garden architecture from the 1740s to the present day. The Georgian Peach House and Vinery date back to the 1780’s, and exceptional views of the estate and gardens are obtained through two splendid tripartite Venetian windows in the Georgian Gazebo House.
The Woodland Walk has been beautifully restored and is open to the public free of charge.
Complement your visit to Strokestown Park with a visit to our Woodland Walk Cafe where you can choose from a wide ranging menu. Our Cafe is situated in what was once the estate granary and serves wholesome home baked fare throughout the day.
