Killaghy castle is set in a mature 240 acre estate. Poets from worldwide destinations come to visit for the Kickham festival held annually in August. Poetry reading takes place at this time in the walled garden of the property, and is a real delight to experience for Killaghy castle residents. A large terrace area equipped with seating is perfect for barbeques during the Summer months. Two tennis courts are located at the entrance to the castle, ideal for guests who like to exercise during their stay.
