About This Project

This prestigious project consisted of the construction of a new 18-bed extension over 2 floors, renovation of existing bedrooms, and upgrade of existing Electrical Infrastructure within the beautiful Castle Leslie Estate in County Monaghan.

Castle Leslie is nestled on 1,000 acres of the undulating Irish countryside, dotted with ancient woodland and glittering lakes.  It is one of the last great Irish Castle estates still in the hands of its founding family.  Castle Leslie Estate is now truly one of the finest luxury estates in Ireland.  MDE is proud to have contributed to the significant investment and major restoration programme.

Project Challenges:

  • Throughout the course of the works, the existing hotel remained fully operational.
  • Access to the site was strictly controlled, with dedicated site access routes being agreed with the hotel and the works being secured from the general public, hotel staff, and guests.
  • Due to the everyday running of the hotel, there were restrictions on noise throughout the site at certain times, which were agreed with Castle Leslie Management.
  • Electrical Services included new LV distribution, Installation of new 800kva Generator, general and emergency lighting, general power, fire alarm, TV distribution system and PA/music system, access control, disabled refuge CCTV, data cabling, telephone systems, and external lighting.
  • Our works ensure the preservation of all existing interior decorations, fixtures, and fittings within this listed 1660’s building.
