Very nice Castle Hotel. The experience is worth the stay. Don’t plan a a good shower, this was an issue. Rooms could do with a little TLC. Even with the above, you won’t regret staying here

Cathy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very beautiful castle hotel and property. It's on its own island and a free ferry brings you across the small river. Lovely. Food is fantastic. Extensive Breakfast is included (except my cappuccino). Staff is great. Romantic. There are large, modern "cottages" (like townhouses) for families or bigger groups.

Amazing time here! I highly suggest a reservation for dinner in the Munster room. Big shout out to Dylan and David who were inside bar area. They were so kind and helpful. The grounds are absolutely amazing. Definitely a 10/10 experience.
Peggy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I loved the atmosphere of the experience, and it starts with the kindness, from the reception, to Mike who helped me with luggage, to fillipo the bartender! The whole time was enjoyable!
James, 1-night trip

A beautiful property. Once in a lifetime experience. The 5 course dinner was spectacular
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It is a lovely place to stay. Being on the island takes you away from the hustle and bustle. We took this as a “pause” from our tour of Ireland. David in the bar and Antonio in the restaurant go out of there way to make sure you enjoy your stay. Feel like an Earl!

Amazing Dinner

The castle and the ground are magnificent and the rooms beautiful. I have traveled extensively over the last 40 years, and then that time I have had no finer meal, then was served at the castle for dinner. Clearly the work of one of the finest chefs imaginable.
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Wonderful experience But dinner took an hour to be served !! If it were not located on an island I would suggest you eat out and only stay at castle
