Classification: Irish Tourist Board 4 Star
Proprietors: Patricia and Austin Cody
Built in 1703, Churchtown House was associated
with some of Wexford’s most powerful families involved in the 1798
insurection; notably the Herron Family whose son John later became
one of Napoleon’s favourite generals. Today, Patricia and Austin
Cody have returned Churchtown to its former glory and in extending
it have combined its traditional elegance with all the comforts of a
small distinctive hotel. Set in 8 acres of mature parkland,
Churchtown provides a haven of peace and tranquillity. Elegant
reception rooms hung with Irish paintings and individually appointed
bedrooms make this the perfect breakaway retreat. Dinner at
Churchtown celebrates good country food cooked in a traditional
style, matched with a personal selection of fine wine book by noon.
Churchtown House is an ideal base from which to explore Wexford “A
land of Living History” with an abundance of forts, castles and
abbeys. Enjoy golf, blue flag beaches, bird watching, fishing and
horseriding nearby. Recommend by Michelin and the Good Hotel Guide.Awards
