How To Get There

By car from Dublin Airport: Leaving the airport, follow signs for M1 and M50. Guests will be travelling on the M1 for a short time before coming onto a roundabout. Take the turn for the M50 southbound. Continue on the M50 going through a toll bridge. Turn left at Exit 16 off the M50. This exit is also signposted for Cherrywood, Loughlinstown and Killiney. Go through the lights at the exit and follow Dun Laoghaire Car Ferry signs over the fly-over bridge. Continue straight onto to Wyattville Road through 3 sets of traffic lights and continue straight up the hill. Continue straight through the next set of traffic lights for approximately half a mile until reaching a roundabout. Guests will see Killiney Shopping Centre and the Graduate Pub in front of them. Take the third exit off the roundabout up Avondale road. Take the first turn right onto Ballinclea Road. Drive up Ballinclea road until coming to a fork in the road, then take a right turn at this fork. Continue up this road to a T-junction and the Fitzpatrick Castle should be ahead. Turn either left or right for the hotel entrance.
