Description (provided by Virtuoso)

This 13th century Castle is located 45 minutes

from Galway city. Once the Estate of Lord

Ardilaun and the Guinness family, Ashford opened

as a luxury hotel in 1939. In 2013 Ashford

Castle became part of the Red Carnation Collection,

who began a loving restoration project and

now offers 82 bespoke bedrooms and a lakeside Hideaway

Cottage. Dining options include formal in the

George V to casual in the Dungeon or Cullen’s at

the Cottage or private dining in the Wine Cellar.

There is a 32 seat cinema, a library, Spa, Billiard’s

room, Cigar terrace and beautiful public lounges

with complimentary high speed wifi throughout.

The Ashford Estate offers an extensive range of

activities including Orvis fly fishing to Ireland’s

first school of falconry. Evocative of an elegant

and bygone age and yet perfectly adapted to the

needs of this modern one, Ashford is the oldest

castle hotel in Ireland, voted Best of the Best by

Virtuoso in 2015 and Best Resort in the UK and

Ireland by Travel + Leisure 2016.
