We had a wonderful experience in Ballyhannon Castle in November 2012. Between the castle and the coach house we accomodated 13 adults and 6 children for a weekend to celebrate my husband's birthday. The castle itself is truly wonderful and its authenticity really added to the sense of occasion. Our guests' feedback was unanimously positive. Margaret did a fantastic job... More

Last december I had my medieval themed wedding there. Any picture that I saw before the day could not really picture how beautiful is the place! Every room makes you feel like a princess and I did not get any special decoration for the wedding, so it's always that perfect! If you like animals there is an amazing surprise: many... More

Christmas 2012 will be etched into our families memories forever! Stone walls, authentic spiral stairs and slot windows, rich and romantic decorations but all the modern amenities to make it a warm and comfortable stay. We pulled off the full Christmas dinner in the fully equipped kitchen, the atmospheric and richly decorated grand dining hall was the perfect place to... More

We searched for sometime for a castle to stay in before we left Iowa. Most didn't look like a castle or were so expensive we couldn't justify a stay there on our budget. Well we found Ballyhannon and it was fabulous! We went over budget but it was worth it. We were so very happy with our stay there and... More

I want to see Ballyhannon Castle and Coach house months ago. Before I stepped out of the car I was in love with it. We meet Margaret and from the moment we meet her she was friendly and helpful. We booked the Castle and Coach House for our Wedding. What an experience it was... Ever dream I have ever had... More

The castle was the perfect backdrop for all of our activities and we spent every evening relaxing together in the coach house. We rode horses in... More

Our hosts Liam and Mags were so wonderful with their kindness and they know hospitality very well, allowing guests to discover the castle while... More

We had so much fun. It really gave me an idea of what it was like living in a castle. Thank goodness for the modern aspects of it! Lords and ladies never had it that good! Highly recommended. The countryside is beautiful and lots of places to see. Awesome!

From the nine levels of beautiful rooms to the lush grounds next to horse stables, this place is a find. How can pics capture this experience? The medieval decor (antiques mixed with newer replicas) give it the charm you hope for. The owners do everything they can to make you comfortable with modern bathroom and kitchen facilities, electric blankets and... More
