About Borris Lodge Nursing Home

Welcome to Borris Lodge Nursing Home, where we pride ourselves on providing our residents with the highest standards of professional comfort and care in a warm and welcoming environment.

Borris House was originally built for the ancestral home of the McMurrough Kavanagh family, who were the High Kings of Leinster in the 1850s.

Borris Lodge Private Nursing Home first opened its doors in May 2000, when new owners purchased the home. Initially it was a 21 bed residence, but they extended it to a 52 bed nursing home through their time of ownership.

Evergreen Care took over new ownership of the nursing home in 2021. The nursing home is situated amidst breathtaking views at the foot of Mount Leinster and is overlooked by the Blackstairs Mountains.
