Dunbrody Country House Hotel (also referred to as Dunbrody Country House Hotel and Restaurant[1]) is an Irish Georgian manor-turned-restaurant in County Wexford, owned by Irish chef Kevin Dundon and his wife Catherine.[2] It is located near the village of Arthurstown.
Formerly associated with the Marquess of Donegall, Dunbrody House was built in the early 19th century.[3] The house was sold in the mid-1990s and renovated between 1999 and 2001.[3] Dunbrody Country House Hotel was opened by 2001.[1]
Media coverage
An October 2001 review in The Sunday Business Post described Dunbrody Country House Hotel and Restaurant as a building which is "beautifully proportioned" and similar in style to that of Queen Anne.[1] In the same article, Ross Golden Bannon gave a negative review of his and his compatriots' "depressing" experience at Dunbrody Country House Hotel and Restaurant.[1] He bemoaned the fact that himself and his accomplices had to pour their own wine, implying that a restaurant of this calibre ought to employ wine pourers, and complained that the food was overcooked and too salty.[1]
Dunbrody Country House Hotel and Restaurant has also been covered in the Italian media.[4]
