The Former Bray Head Hotel

The Former Bray Head Hotel holds a rich cinematic history, having featured in iconic films such as The Commitments, Breakfast on Pluto, and My Left Foot. Notably, in 1965, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor visited the hotel while Burton was filming ‘The Spy Who Came in from the Cold’ at Ardmore Studios.

The renovation and development of this historical and iconic building, a protected structure dating from the Victorian era, will result in the preservation and retention of many very special original features. The new development, comprising 49 residential units and two commercial units, will see the sympathetic development of the Bray Head Hotel into a boutique collection of spacious apartments and penthouses, many of which will boast stunning sea views.
