It's always a pleasure to return here.
Pros:

We have been long-standing guests at The Castle Hotel, and every time we stay with them, it feels a little like home. There's a warm Irish welcome from the team on reception and nothing is every too much trouble.

The bedrooms are immaculately clean and they have recently had some improvements to the furnishings to make them a little more luxurious. Whilst the bathroom is immaculate and shower is wonderful, the bathrooms are in need of an update in comparison to other four star hotels.

That said, their breakfast takes some beating and their long-standing waitress is professional and friendly, always. As we we were having a family gathering, we also had a large party in the bar, which has a warmth about it the moment you enter. For those of you who may be looking for a nice meal, I can recommend the food in the bar also, and they have a fabulous cafe for tea and scones or lunch to the front of the hotel, which is extremely popular with locals alike because it serves delicious fare in pleasant surroundings. Although we don't avail of the other facilities usually, The Castle has a fantastic pool and gym, so it's ideal for families and those who like to keep up their fitness routine.

There's plenty of parking out the back too with an accessible ramp for those who may need it.
