The interiors of the House were designed by renowned Scottish architect Robert Adams and were selected by the United National World Monument Fund for restoration in 2004. Today the House stands as a commitment to honouring the past and celebrating the present.

​

In 1949, the Marquesses of Headfort leased the main house to the newly formed Headfort School and since that year, it has remained as such, educating generations of families from Ireland, of all faiths, and from all over the world.

​

As a functioning school, the House is protected during the school year for the learning of our students, as many of our boarders reside on campus for the full week.

​

With tennis courts, rugby fields, tyre swings, ancient Magnolia and beautiful Berch trees, all sharing the expansive grounds, the outside teaches our children as much as the inside does.
