About this property

Set in an unusual and impressive collection of historic rose-clad buildings including a mill and former dovecote, dog-friendly Cliff at Lyons is a glorious eighteenth-century hotel in an idyllic rural setting, just 30 minutes from Dublin city centre in Ireland. The original buildings, built of granite and slate, have been either rebuilt or stylishly renovated to create contemporary hotel rooms and suites, as well as one and two-bedroom apartments and cottages. On the edge of Lyons Demesne, which is considered one of the great historic houses of Ireland, Cliff at Lyons is dotted through orchards and lawned gardens on the banks of the Grand Canal, where barges still ply the waters. With miles of countryside walks on your doorstep, Cliff at Lyon makes the perfect base from which to explore with your canine companion.

Dine with Your Dog

Dining at Cliff at Lyons maximises the benefits of its rural location, with a kitchen garden adjacent to both the main restaurant, The Orangery, and the casual Trellis. There is a lavish afternoon tea available in The Orangery on the last Sunday of most months and Sunday lunch, perfect for a family gathering, is to be had in Shackleton Mill on selected Sundays throughout the year. From the fresh snip of verbena in your morning tea to the crushed mint in juices, to the French radishes sliced at your dinner table, the connection to the green surroundings is real and emphasised throughout the dining experience. A courtyard dining menu is also available for furry friends.

Bow wow factor

At Cliff at Lyons your dog will be in seventh heaven with miles of countryside to tire out their little legs! Take a relaxing stroll through the estate or follow the canal at your leisure.
