‘It needed to be boutique’ – Ray Byrne and Eoin Doyle on their new €10m venue at Goffs

The pair have developed an equine-themed hotel in the bloodstock sales company grounds which will include a restaurant run by Derry and Sallyanne Clarke, formerly of L’Ecrivain

Eoin Doyle and Ray Byrne: ‘The hotel has an equestrian theme because of Goffs, but also because of Kildare in general – you have Punchestown, Naas, the Curragh and the National Stud here.’ Picture: Cathal Noonan
