The check-in process was confusing and unwelcoming.

The castle was a stunning backdrop for our family getaway. Our dogs loved playing in the vast grounds, and the staff made us feel right at home, especially Joe, who gave us excellent tips for local attractions. Plus, the kids adored the friendly Irish Wolfhound.

My kids wished for a more kid-friendly breakfast experience.

Stunning grounds and delightful dogs greet you at the entrance. Breakfast served by the wonderful Joe and Doreen was fantastic. The staff truly make your stay feel special.

A few guests mentioned cleanliness issues in the rooms and delays in meal service at breakfast, which detracted from their experience.

The claw-foot tub was a delightful surprise, and the

room offered an incredible amount of space, which made our stay comfortable. However, we found the check-in process to be slightly confusing, which was a bit off-putting at first.

This place suits me perfectly, offering free wi-fi, comfortable rooms, and a lovely restaurant. The staff even helped me find directions during my first visit, which I still appreciate. I highly recommend trying the dinner!

The food was absolutely incredible, especially the Lamb Shank dinner. The staff treated us like royalty, always ready to help, which made the experience even better.

It wasn’t cheap, but worth every penny.

Spacious room, excellent breakfast, with the friendly waitstaff making sure your morning starts off right while enjoying a fantastic meal in a charming dining area that feels like stepping into a period drama.

It is perfect.

We were completely blown away by the stunning views from our room and the extensive breakfast menu. The delightful afternoon tea with scones was such a treat! Can't wait to return.

The beautifully restored interiors and elegant decor created a magical atmosphere. I particularly enjoyed the spacious lounges with large windows and plush seating, perfect for relaxing. Accessibility was good, making it easy for seniors to navigate the castle.

More accessible options in dining areas would be helpful.
