From Farm to Fork: Fresh Produce at Killeavy Castle Estate

At Killeavy Castle Estate we are proud to be situated in the heart of an exceptional region, full of expert farmers, artisans and producers. The nearby Irish Sea provides world-beating sustainable fish, while independent suppliers from around Northern Ireland offer fresh fruit, vegetables, cheeses and other produce.

We are committed to offering the freshest local and seasonal produce in all of our dishes. Alongside our estate farm and gardens, we work closely with local producers to provide an exceptional farm-to-fork dining experience.

The Killeavy Castle Estate Ethos

Sustainability is built into everything we do at the Killeavy Castle Estate. As a family-run business, our mission is to protect the local environment for generations to come. Partnering with suppliers who share this vision allows us to help protect local wildlife stocks.

We believe in farm-to-fork dining and sourcing quality ingredients from the local area. This helps us to reduce transport emissions, ensuring that we protect our surrounding forests, mountains, and waters.

Above all else, our staff are passionate about food and providing exceptional hospitality for our guests. Overseen by Executive Head Chef, Darragh Dooley, and Head Chef, Dario Percic, our culinary team are handpicked, ensuring that they share Killeavy’s sustainable farm-to-fork ethos.
