Set amid approximately one thousand acres of parkland, woods and lakes, Bellamont Forest is one of Ireland’s finest 18th century Palladian
villas. Built between 1725 and 1730 for Thomas Coote, Lord Chief Justice of Ireland, the house was designed by his nephew, Sir Edward Lovett Pearce, one of the leading exponents of the Palladian style in Ireland. Bellamont symbolises the pinnacle of architectural perfection and is one of only a few buildings in Ireland designated of ‘National Importance’. Pearce’s other works include the former Houses of Parliament in College Green, now The Bank of Ireland. He later became Surveyor General of Ireland, a post which he held until his death in 1733.
