The perfect time for a walk though the estate on the last day of May. Birdsong carrying through the woodland, the river moving alongside the paths, and a long stroll beneath a canopy that’s fully come into leaf. 🌿

Scenes from the garden this week. The recent sunshine has brought everything on quickly, colour appearing in every corner, the beds filling out, and the whole space feeling alive again.

One of the loveliest times of year to wander through the walled garden. 🌺

For many guests, breakfast at Ballynahinch is the moment they remember most. A quiet start to the day, with the river outside and nowhere to rush towards. What's your favourite part of breakfast here?

A slow weekend morning in one of our classic riverside rooms. A cup of tea, a good book within reach, and nowhere pressing to be for a while.

Celebrating World Bee Day at Ballynahinch Castle. 🐝

Bees are a vital part of the ecosystem here at Ballynahinch. From wild planting to habitat restoration across the estate, sustainability efforts continue to focus on encouraging biodiversity and protecting the natural environment around us. A reminder, today especially, of how connected it all is.

There’s a particular freedom to summer at Lettery Lodge. Long lunches in the garden, days exploring the estate, and evenings gathered around the table as the light fades outside. With Ballynahinch Castle just beyond the door, it offers the freedom of a private house alongside the ease of the Castle.

There’s a cocktail for every corner of Ballynahinch. The warmth of the Fisherman’s Pub, the quiet comfort of the Hunt’s Room, or the terrace on a brighter evening. A good excuse to mark World Cocktail Day properly. 🍸

Cian and the team are seeing the garden shift quickly now that we are in May. Tender plants are moving back outdoors, the vegetable beds are filling up, and the greenhouse is beginning to take on a life of its own again. Rhubarb harvesting is well underway, tomatoes are being planted under cover, and attention is turning towards summer pots, baskets and window boxes.

A busy and rewarding time in the walled garden as the season gathers momentum. What are you up to in your own garden this month? 🌱

May is when the estate begins to come into bloom. Across 700 acres of woodland, river and lakeshore, the landscape shifts day by day, with trails leading you through it at your own pace. A beautiful time to plan a stay and take it all in.

An afternoon well spent in The Fisherman's Pub. The crossword half-finished, a drink beside it, and sunlight settling across the room.
