ARG Visit to Farmleigh House October 2024

The ARG went on day trip to Farmleigh House in the Phoenix Park and viewed in the magnificent house and grounds.

Home to the Guinness family for generations, Farmleigh remains a unique representation of its heyday, the Edwardian period, and houses important artworks and furnishings, as well as the Benjamin Iveagh collection of rare books, bindings, and manuscripts which is held in the Library. The extensive pleasure grounds feature walled and sunken gardens and scenic lakeside walks, tastefully influenced by the Guinness family.

Farmleigh is managed by the Office of Public Works. The Estate hosts a donkey sanctuary, horses and is home to a herd of Kerry Black cows. The knowledgeable guides showed us around on a tour of Farmleigh House taking us from the eighteenth century, when building commenced, right up to the present day.

ARG membership is now at capacity, however we will open up a waiting list for those hoping to join. For further information, please email: us at activeretirement@ozanamhouse.ie or call us on (01)8742804.
