20 Beautiful Castles in Ireland to Inspire Your Next Trip
"Sitting on a site that began as a Viking trading camp in 970, the present stronghold was built in 1425 and restored in 1954; it is furnished with 15th-century art and tapestries and forms the centerpiece of a 26-acre Bunratty Folk Park with recreated medieval village buildings, farmhouses, shops, and an elegant Georgian residence dating to 1804. Guests can experience a four-course medieval banquet with performances by the Bunratty Castle singers in the castle's Great Hall." - Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty Patricia Doherty is a writer who specializes in covering destinations, resorts, and cruises for Travel + Leisure and other publications.
