Emma's Butterfly Garden


 DEBRA Ireland has opened a new butterfly garden in Killashee House, Naas, Co. Kildare.
This stunning creation of a butterfly garden was the brainchild of Emma Fogarty, Patient Ambassador with DEBRA Ireland. It was her dream to have a butterfly garden in a location where those affected by EB can go to enjoy peace and tranquility. This striking garden is complete with a fountain, butterfly houses and gazebo. This beautiful garden will be a place where all people can come to reflect and get away from the stresses they face in their everyday life. Please come and visit the next time you are passing by, dining or staying in Killashee House Hotel & Villa Spa.


Welcome to the Butterfly Garden,
Let your heart and soul float free,
Lift your face to the light and beauty,
And whisper, Let peace come to me.
Then quietly wander the pathways,
Or sit in tranquility,
In a flitter of delicate beauty,
You reveal yourself to me.

Celebrating 25 years in the Killashee Gardens

Tony laying out the red carpet for the launch of "Emma's Butterfly Garden"

We are extremely lucky to have such an experienced and talented gardener Tony Hanlon. Tony started his journey with Killashee over 25 years ago in the 80’s as the gardener for the nuns.  Tony has been the backbone of Killashee throughout the many years it has been a successful establishment under many guises from a nunnery to a boarding school and in recent years a luxury hotel. Tony is adored by staff and guests alike for his encyclopaedic knowledge of gardens, far superior to any google search (which he’ll personally assure you himself!). Not only will he provide great tips but he is the man with the real stories behind the history of Killashee. His latest horticultural masterpiece is the recently launched “Emma’s Butterfly Garden” – watch this space for the beautiful story behind his stunning creation.
