Gorgeous Place to stay
Pros:

The property is beautiful!! I see why there are lots of weddings here. We stayed in a building behind the castle. The room was spacious and beautiful. There was no ac but it was not needed. A fan was provided and so was a hair dryer which is not provided much in Ireland hotels. The restaurant was very nice and our meal was great. Didn't realize the entree came with potato and veggies so we ordered potatoes and had three sides of potatoes! Breakfast was great as well and included in the rate. Nothing bad to say at all.

Pros:

Beautiful grounds and amazing staff both at reception and at the bar and restaurant. Our rooms were lovely and when one of the beds was smaller than expected the staff helped to find another room for us.

Cons:

Wish there was more to do on the grounds. Enough for a one night stay but would have been bored if we stayed longer.

Beautiful and amazing experience overall. Dinner was delicious and enjoyed Breakfast delivered to our room.
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay, everything was great. A dream come true for me today stay in a castle ever since watching Bridgerton:)
Just wish the weather was better so we could’ve enjoyed the outside grounds as well.

Cons:

The check-in process didn’t go as smooth as planned. We got there about 2:30 and were told rooms weren’t ready so we went to the bar and had a drink. Went back to try again and got a slightly rude response “well it’s just 3 on the dot”. Two of us got our rooms but the other couple had to wait another 40 minutes.
