Situated in the Vale of Avoca, one of Ireland’s most beautiful locations, Woodenbridge Hotel & Lodge combines all the charm of yesteryear with all the facilities required of a modern hotel.

Established in 1608, Woodenbridge Hotel is the oldest hotel in Ireland and some of our past guests include Michael Collins, Eamon de Valera, Charles Stewart Parnell and Thomas Moore, who have all been captivated by the idyllic wonder of Woodenbridge. The main hotel has 29 well-

appointed bedrooms all ensuite .The main hotel overlooks the Vale of Avoca and the amazing scenery of the Woodenbridge Golf Club.

Woodenbridge Lodge is the more modern part of the hotel and the home of the newly opened Smokehouse Restaurant. It is adjacent from the main hotel in wonderful, landscaped gardens overlooking the Aughrim River.
