Ireland’s Hidden Heritage at Temple House

A personally hosted experience of Ireland’s North West, based for seven nights at Temple House Estate.

More than a tour. A week as our guests.

Spend a week discovering the hidden heritage of Ireland's North West, from ancient landscapes to sacred places. Along the way you'll meet local craftspeople, hear the region's stories and uncover layers of history that many visitors never experience.
 

Your home for the week is Temple House Estate, a 300-year-old lakeside manor set within a 1,000-acre historic estate, including the ruins of a 13th-century Knights Templar castle.
 

Hosted by a local guide, each day unfolds at a relaxed pace, shaped by the group, the weather and opportunities that arise along the way. It's a more personal way to experience Ireland, creating memories that stay with you long after you return home.

“It was the trip of a lifetime. Thanks for the incredible experiences and the wonderful memories."

- Joan, 2025 Tour
