Located in Boyle. The house was built in the 1730s by Sir Henry King, King House is one of the most important provincial townhouses in Ireland and Britain. It was home to the Earls of Kingston until 1788 when it became a military barracks for the Connaught Rangers Regiment of the British Army, and later for the Irish Army.

Now beautifully restored, King House has a series of exciting interactive exhibitions focusing on Gaelic Ireland, the King Family and their time as landlords, the construction of the house and its military history.
