The property was great. Staying in an old castle was a cool experience. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The only downside was the room which smelled musty and the windows had no screens so we had to be mindful of the bugs when airing it out. The bed was tiny, but comfortable.
We loved the experience of staying in a genuine castle! It was a beautiful property with trails for walking and wildlife wandering on site with horses! The only thing I’d change were the sheers on the bathroom window (felt a little exposed. The staff were lovely and we would definitely stay again and longer to enjoy the area more! Offaly is beautiful

The castle felt authentic. Dungeon Bar was fun and staff were friendly. Loved the castle cat - Bootsie!
Such an amazing experience, the staff were so kind and organized horse back riding for us in a days notice. They helped make our experience so special in Ireland. Beautiful view of the horses out front from our room. So lovely!
Wow, beautiful hotel castle. Stayed only one night, checked out the walking trails - they were so nice! Staff were excellent , so warm and welcoming. Its a must stay when visiting Ireland.
Service was fantastic! Everyone was very inviting and friendly. We stayed at the castle Dec 30th. Vivian at the front desk was great, she took our families on a ghost tour throughout the castle. The bartender, wait staff and overnight porter were great as well!
This was by far our favorite stay while we were in Ireland. The staff was absolutely the best!! Vicki and Connor were so kind and accommodating. We had such a lovely time and wanted to really stay longer. I wanted to stay at a authentic castle and that's the way it felt. It was a dream come true for me and my husband. We will be back.
Conor was amazing at check in - couldn’t do enough. Sabina, was delightful, friendly and again, couldn’t do enough. Service in Dungeon Bar, a bit hit or miss. No plate under Chowder, didn’t know what a finger bowl was for chicken wings - had to explain. Table sprayed and cleaned whilst food was on the table. Need a wee bit of training, easily fixed!
We really enjoyed our Castle stay for our anniversary. The staff really made our anniversary very special which was much appreciated. The room was very comfortable. Beautiful grounds and trails to walk on. We enjoyed seeing the horses and deer out in the field. Very memorable.
