"Want to get away from it all? Then head to the private island where Waterford Castle is located. The restored 16th century castle is full of elegant touches like patterned brocade curtains and plush couches perfect for curling up with a book. For dinner, head to Munster Room, the hotel’s restaurant that serves upscale takes on Irish classics, like smoked haddock topped with caviar and duck breast with Jerusalem artichokes and red cabbage gel, best finished off with fresh Irish cheese."
