Bed & Breakfasts

Bed & Breakfasts

Guesthouses

Guesthouses

Guesthouses are similar to bed and breakfasts in that they are family run, but they are usually larger in scale with 5 to 15 guest rooms. Guesthouses are often purpose built and so rooms are generally larger and facilities more generous than in a B&B. All our guesthouses have been... Read More

Hotels: 3 & 4 star

Castles

Castles

Every couple of years it is a good idea to wake up in a Castle. There is nothing quite like it. There is the ancient grandeur of course which is nice; the suits of armour and centuries old tapestries on the wall; the high wood ceilings, stone columns and battlements;... Read More

Wedding Venues

Wedding Venues

In the Ireland of old, it was good luck to hear a cuckoo on the morning of the wedding or see three magpies. It was also considered good luck if, after the wedding, someone tossed an old shoe over the bride’s head. Today the bride is more interested in finding... Read More
