This Georgian manor house accommodates 22 bedrooms and overlooks the river. Built by the first Earl of Carrick and named after his wife, Lady Julianna Butler, Mount Juliet has gathered two and a half centuries of history since. Its Lady Helen restaurant is Michelin-starred; dishes by Head Chef John Kelly are crafted using locally sourced ingredients and enjoyed with a backdrop of rolling pastoral views. There’s a cinema featuring a velvet, marble and brass interior, a 15-metre swimming pool, tennis courts and equestrian facilities. Golf is also a major draw of the estate, with an academy and a Jack Nicklaus signature-designed course set across 180 acres of majestic parkland.
