    There wasn't anything we didn't like.

    Jerry was a fantastic host. The staff for breakfast were very attentive and helpful. The facilities, grounds and staff were amazing.

    Not a thing.

    Once in a lifetime. Stayed in the salmon room, had views of the river out of one window and view of the cadet out the other. Clean, spacious and comfortable.

    The only downside was we missed the opportunity of a guided tour as we were asked the morning we had to leave and catch a train to Dublin so remember to request/inquire about it asap! You can also hear your neighbours, especially if they snore like a bear and have an adjoining room.

    Very cool location, beautifully decorated in historically restored theme. Room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and a bottle of wine was provided on arrival (with glasses). There was a small fridge in the room to keep bits and pieces. There was a lovely little table to sit and enjoy the tea that was provided over views of the castle gardens. Divine breakfast with plenty of options, freshly baked cakes, breads, yoghurts, fruit, cereals and cheeses, jams and spreads (extra cheeses were also provided). Tea and coffee were also provided and were delicious. There is also an antique piano in the foyer for you to play, we asked for permission first but they were more than happy to let us play. Very easy to communicate with the host who responded within minutes about any requests or queries we had.

    Nothing- I wish we had stayed there longer!

    Our castle stay was so peaceful. Our toddler enjoyed the large lawns and the flowers. We took a short stroll by the river too. Our rooms were beautiful and the restoration of the castle and the rooms is immaculate. It was such a pleasure in every way. You feel immersed in history while still being able to enjoy modern luxury.

    Would have liked a little more option for breakfast. It would be great if there were even eggs available. But what was there was fine. Just plan to have breakfast somewhere else if you're hungry.

    Gerry was really friendly and showed us around. Rooms were beautiful and clean. The location was just breathtaking.

    This castle stay was AMAZING! I would definitely recommend anyone to stay at this location. It looked and felt like a castle but also with all modern amenities and very clean. The room was huge and it really felt like we were in a castle. We checked in late but were able to tour the castle part in the morning and that really added to the experience. This was our favorite place that we stayed in Ireland- well worth the extra cost to stay somewhere cool!

    Disappointed with breakfast. It said continental breakfast so was expecting some meats and good cheeses but just very basic triangles of cheese and no meats of any kind.
