Avondale House and Forest Park

Avondale House, once the home of Charles Stewart Parnell, one of the greatest political leaders of Irish History, has been refurbished by the Irish Forestry Board to the decor of c. 1850. A specially commissioned audio visual presentation is shown to visitors prior to viewing the house. Forest and nature trails in the magnificent park of 512 acres start a short distance from the house. This year the 'American Room' will be open which mainly deals with Admiral Charles Stewart, Parnell's famous American grandfather who manned the US Constitution which still stands in Boston Harbour.
