“We loved our stay and have started to plan another”
We love everything about this family run hotel. What’s not to love, the sight of this castle on the drive in to the staircase at the entrance. We are in awe of this place and can’t get enough of here.

“Stunning venue you have to try!”
Stunning property that I adored exploring and wandering around. I stayed here last minute for a birthday treat and was assigned a beautiful room with free standing bath overlooking the gardens. It’s quiet, relaxing and I loved the SMEG tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast was gorgeous and coffee great too. Can’t wait to come back!

The food was excellent and the included breakfast was great. The service at dinner was also very good. The staff was polite and very attentive. Exploring the different rooms in the castle was a treat. The snooker table was grand.

“Live like Royalty”
I loved everything. It was an experience I won't forget. I originally hadn't chosen to stay here, but decided how can I NOT stay at a castle while touring Ireland!? (After all, I AM a queen! 😉) The grounds and building are exquisite, dinner was delicious and all staff were very helpful (shout out to my server at dinner, I'm horrible with names, but this young lady was very friendly, very timely/helpful) I didn't have dress clothes with me, and didn't once feel uncomfortable The bed was made for a queen, so comfortable! The room as well...just indescribable! I'd encourage anyone to just do it and stay!
