What our visitors say

Our visit to King House was an unexpected excellent excursion. The guide at King House certainly knew his stuff… Well worth a visit.

— Grainne G

This is a great attraction. It's a restored Georgian house, but there's enough variety in the exhibitions to appeal to everyone…The staff were really helpful. If you're in Boyle, I really recommend it.

— Maria C

Our very informative tour guide Aisling gave us a fascinating and amusing account of it's history… You could easily spend two or three hours here. Thoroughly recommended.

— Brendan O’Donovan

Thanks to Thomas who provided us with this afternoons tour, an absolute fountain of knowledge who added real value to our visit!

— Simon Bedford-Smith

King House is magnificent on many levels… There is a coffee shop and a farmers' market in the grounds too. King House could easily be the most interesting and diverse Great House to visit in Ireland

— Fergal Jennings

King House in Boyle is a must see for anyone visiting North West of Ireland. A beautifully maintained historic building that represents three centuries of history of Ireland and the aristocracy that ruled it and the King families in its role.
