A wonderful experience both for the House Tour & walks around the parkland. Exceptional art & furniture.
Lovely parkland walk. Not too long even for my 83 old mother. The house tour was super interesting and being c50 mins was perfectly timed. Our tour guide, George, was excellent. Very relaxed and friendly and demonstrate a very detailed knowledge of the house and contents. Some of the rooms are breath taking and a joy to see preserved. Great value at €16 per adult. Relaxed in the cafe after which have an excellent choice of for and snacks. A great place for a 2-3 hour visit.
We had a fabulous guide, George, he made the house come to life with his stories, definitely worth a visit.
Worth the Price . Brian is a very good tour guide . Learned alot from him and enjoyed the tour
We enjoyed an excellent house tour by Tara who gave us really interesting insights into the lives of the families who lived there. Fabulous Palladian mansion. Claire gave us a tour of the Walled Garden which is maintained by dedicated volunteers. Lots more to see but we ran out of time. Gorgeous cafe with lovely food and friendly staff.
George is a wonderful guide and a great art historian .no question was too much for him .
Lovely house & interesting tour. Guide very knowledgeable. Not really arty but the Prodigal Son collection & story behind pictures was great, as was the history of all the robberies !! .Nice mixture of gifts in shop & great service. Grounds & garden lovely also. Lots of events there, so worth a visit.
Totally surprised by how great this tour turned out to be. George, the inhouse guide, was fantastic and incredibly enthusiastic and knowledgeable. In many ways we visited at just the right time as the Murillo paintings had been returned from the National Gallery, but on loan.
Called out to Russborough House after a 20+ year gap since our last visit. We had good memories from our last visit and this trip created more. A lot has been done to the house since we were last there, lots of restoration and a much bigger café. The basement houses a shop and a number of little museums, you could spend well over an hour down there alone ! We took the house tour, with the marvelous Martina, what a fountain of knowledge, she was also great with the kids on the tour, getting them involved. The OPW are lucky to have people like her. We then went for a long walk in the grounds and finished up with a visit to the walled Garden, which sells some of its produce there on the spot, whatever is in season at that time I would think. Its a great place, well worth a visit and a great place for families.
Very nice place, especially the grounds and walled garden. We were there on a Tuesday, one of the volunteer gardeners' days, with produce for sale. Walks around the beautiful grounds are flat. Children's' playground, a maze (which wasn't accessible) . A very good café, with long queues at lunch time. Good shop, too. Pleasant staff, clean toilets. If you take the house tour, be prepared for lectures on old paintings and for being locked in. Russborough house is typically Georgian and typically furnished, and in good condition, with paintings on loan from the National Gallery of Ireland. When we (group of 25) were admitted, we were to be locked in each room, and lectured about these old, Spanish and not likeable paintings, which would only be worth blackmail value if they were stolen. Their importance took preference over the tour of the first room. Stealing of paintings is still, it appears, feared, even though we, all aged between 70 and 90, would have been physically unable to run off with them. (Paintings have been stolen from Russborough in the past by people who were [I presume] desperate but ignorant of condition/close recording/ provenance etc. of artworks.) Also one wonders what the Fire Service thinks of such lock-ins. Locking people in is, in my view, dangerous and ridiculous. If standing is a problem, you may sit on the radiators, which are low, so you'd still need good lower muscles. I had to get myself buzzed out, as I had expected to tour the house and was very uncomfortable standing, crushed on a crowded "protective carpet" and being told about something I did not want or expect. I enjoy stately homes, architecture and period decor, so I was disappointed. (It may be arranged, I'm guessing, for interiors buffs to walk through, at a special time - at some period properties there is.) (As everyone knows, crowds spoil the atmosphere in such places.) The guide had excellent presentation, and knew her subjects. However there was no adjustment for the average age of the group or its level of interests. We were given the standard heavy-duty ordeal. Some of our party would have loved more seating along the path to the walled garden - they had to give up on visiting it. (Pity that I didn't get to see the house.)
