"A fairytale getaway that’s one of Ireland’s most magical stays, Dromoland Castle boasts lavish accommodations, award-winning dining and a world-class golf course."

Arguably one of Ireland’s most magical getaways, Dromoland Castle feels like something plucked from a fairytale. The ancestral home of the O’Briens family (the lineage of whom dates back to one of the last High Kings of Ireland), Dromoland castle is no stranger to luxurious living. The property has also been welcoming guests since the 16th century, putting more than a half millennia of hospitality experience under its already impressive belt. To make a good thing even better, the castle is set on a 450-acre estate that includes a host of top-notch amenities: intimate spa and world-class golf course included.

Dromoland’s façade is quintessential castle, with proud baronial exteriors that hint at the fit-for-royalty digs inside. Within, you’ll find a grand total of 97 guestrooms and suites, each of which has been lovingly and thoughtfully designed to ensure an absolutely sumptuous stay. There’s a good bit of variety to choose from, whether you opt for a Deluxe Room or the exquisite...   Show more

Within, you’ll find a grand total of 97 guestrooms and suites, each of which has been lovingly and thoughtfully designed to ensure an absolutely sumptuous stay. There’s a good bit of variety to choose from, whether you opt for a Deluxe Room or the exquisite Brian Boru Suite, which is the poshest option of all. The interior design is set in peaceful and pretty pastels, with elevated decor that makes the spaces feel regal without being stuffy. High ceilings sport gorgeous chandeliers and equally tall windows are flanked by gorgeous drapes, while tasteful works of art, beautiful antiques and gilded accents further heighten the aristocratic feel. Expansive bathrooms are luxe and lovely, and the inspiring views are captivating.

The hotel’s award-winning dining scene is helmed by Executive Head Chef David McCann, who has been the mastermind behind the property’s gastronomy for over two decades. With that much experience, it should come as no surprise that the cuisine is utterly spectacular. The celebrated Earl of Thomond is Dromoland’s flagship restaurant; it is a superb fine-dining eatery with an utterly exceptional dining room. Thoughtfully inclusive menus make this spot a boon for vegetarians, though the meat dishes on the menu are utterly sublime. The sunny Figtree Restaurant is another delightful spot no matter the season, while The Gallery is a cosy fireside spot that’s perfect for the day’s first cup of coffee or a light snack later on. For drinks you’ll have the attractive Cocktail Bar and be sure to not miss the elevated Afternoon Tea.

There is no shortage of activities at the castle, from fishing and falconry to clay shooting, archery and more. Active guests can enjoy a spot of tennis, a hike or even stand-up paddle boarding, while golf enthusiasts will want to head immediately to the Dromoland Castle Golf & Country Club.
