Ballylinch Stud

On the boundaries of the estate is Ballylinch Stud, where the McCalmont family, bred many world famous racing horses including The Tetrarch, once known as "the fastest horse in the history of the turf". The breeding tradition continues today, and hotels guests are invited to enjoy a personal tour of the stud during their stay. At the right time you may be lucky to see the birth of a future champion.

Alternatively the hounds of The Kilkenny Fox Hunt which are kenneled on the estate are available to walk most mornings. Depending on the time of your visit there may easily be a show or competition taking place in the locality. This is a great opportunity to see the talents of local competitors and to lend your support. Regular monthly horse sales are held in the nearby town of Goresbridge after the pleasures of riding at Mount Juliet you may want to purchase a mount of your own!
