This Valentines, instead of sitting in a packed restaurant on Valentines Night, paying for an overpriced menu and getting hurried out the door, why not indulge yourselves and take a trip down to the BrookLodge Hotel and Wells Spa on Tuesday, the 14th of February for a night of lovin’.
We have three hot special offers…
Bed & [...]
The evening feast, with all the food coming from Wicklow (save for David Llewellyn’s Dublin wines), was one of the greatest events in Irish culinary history.
We’re having a facelift… It started with new TV’s and carpets in BrookHall and then last week we put all new chairs and couches in the Waterside Lounge.
It’s an ongoing process over the winter months, so next time you’re down we think you’ll notice that we’re a bit glammed up!

Wild&Slow is now happening. The second workshop of the day is underway, with the inimitable Derry Clarke from L’Ecrivian highlighting the difference in taste and textures of our native game. Dusk draws near, so it’s getting time to light the wood braziers and kick back with a Wild Venison Burger from Ed Hick, and a [...]

From the heady scent of braised pheasant, the deep dark flavour of slow-cooked venison to the delicate taste of Woodcock and Snipe, a contented reliance on nature’s gifts is as Strawberry Tree as it gets.
Then here we are at a place called BrookLodge, where the reception area glows with candlelight. Here we are at Ireland’s only certified organic restaurant, The Strawberry Tree, eating foraged chickweed and elderberries with goats’ cheese and a plate of organic chocolate. (The restaurant featured on a recent episode of MasterChef, hence the knife clue. Subtle.) Here we are. Laughing and talking, sometimes about the children and sometimes not about the children, and this is no longer a business meeting, more a meeting of hearts and minds.
We mean business! We’re delighted to announce that the BrookLodge is the recipient of the “Business Hotel of the Year 2012″ award at the Georgina Campbell Ireland Hospitality awards, that took place yesterday, October 11th, at Bord Bia’s HQ in Dublin. It’s a nice one for us, as not many people realise that as well as being a food, spa and leisure destination, we also have a big following in the conference, meetings & events market, both in Ireland and abroad.
This is one superb place to celebrate “wild” Wicklow, especially as the seasons change and the menus adapt accordingly. Come back from a day on the hills to bask in the eco spa, followed by their current harvest offering of a complimentary glass of organic bubbly, with a shot of home-made wild elderflower cordial before dinner. Just to give it that added “wild” touch.
