About Clandeboye Estate

The estate was first settled in 1674.
Clandeboye is most famous for the legacy of the 1st Marquess (1826-1902), who laid out the historic parklands under the guidance of James Frazer. The project was so extensive that the estate still boasts the largest area of broadleaved woodland in Northern Ireland.
A series of intimate walled gardens adjoin the courtyard and house.
These include the delightful Bee Garden, the Chapel Walk and the intimate Conservatory Garden. In the Bee Garden you will find a selection of Old Irish Variety apple trees surrounding an area of wild-flower meadow on which stands a Georgian style bee house. The walls of the Conservatory Garden help create a warmer environment and so you will find more exotic plants and trees both inside the conservatory and in the adjoining garden. Further afield are the woodland gardens which display a large collection of Rhododendrons and other exotic species suited to the unique mild climate of this part of County Down.
