Adare Manor is located in the village of Adare, in the county of Limerick, Ireland. The Neo-Gothic manor was built in the 19th century for the Dunraven Earls upon the site of a 17th century structure, in which some of the walls were retained. The 7th Earl of Dunraven couldn’t afford to maintain the Adare Manor, so the estate and its contents were sold in 1982 to an investment consortium. In 1987, Thomas Kane, an Irish American from Florida, purchased the estate and converted it into the Adare Manor Hotel and Golf Resort. In 2015, the property was purchased by Limerick businessman J.P. McManus, who hosted pro-am golfing events on the property. Adare Manor is scheduled to host the 2027 Ryder Cup. Set on the banks of the Maigue River, the 840-acre estate boasts parkland, extensive gardens, a golf course, grounds for the Limerick Cricket Club, self-catering lodges, two three-bedroom self-catering cottages, a Michelin star restaurant, a spa, and the Padel Club. (Padel is a mix between tennis and squash) The Padel Club activity center offers two indoor padel courts, a 17-meter pool, a sauna, a steam room, a full gym, a contemplative studio, and a sports simulation room used for virtual golf, baseball, hockey, and more. Adare Manor has 104 bedrooms. Forty-two of them are part of a new wing linked to the original structure by a colonnade.
