With spring just around the corner, it’s an ideal moment to broaden your horizons for 2026 and carve out some time to enjoy our February/March issue of Kildare Life magazine.

This latest edition is packed with inspiration for the months ahead - from seasonal features and recipes to celebrity interviews and a carefully curated guide to local events.

In celebration of St Valentine’s Day, we chat with local couples who open up about the joys (and a few challenges) of sharing life together at the most romantic time of the year.

Kildare hotelier Amanda Torrens takes on our Seven Deadly Sins questions, sharing how she balances history and heritage with modern comforts, while emphasising the value of sustainability and community.

We also meet Naas-based fashion designer Róisín Linnane, renowned for her timeless, elegant designs that combine everyday luxury with effortless versatility, created using quality fabrics and guided by a “less is more” ethos.

Michael Masterson, general manager of the Keadeen Hotel, looks back on his career path-from stacking shelves at Ray O’Brien’s petrol station in Newbridge at 13 years of age, to working in his aunt’s restaurant, Katmanu.

In our Meet the Chef feature, Pablo Bernardo, Executive Chef at Barberstown Castle, reflects on growing up in Brazil and discovering his passion for both classic and contemporary French cuisine.

Our arts section highlights the work of PIGSY (Ciarán McCoy), an architect-turned-visual artist whose large-scale expressionist paintings delve into the psychological landscapes of language, memory and identity.

To round things off, we present a special photography feature capturing two distinctive pantomimes staged in Naas at the beginning of 2026 - and there’s plenty more to discover between these pages.

All in all, it’s a wonderful read, and we hope you enjoy everything this issue has to offer.
