Ross Castle Historic Accommodation

Spent an amazing weekend with a group of friends to celebrate a 'big!' birthday in Ross Castle on the 17th & 18th October. The castle has a wonderful historical back story which certainly added to the experience of been there. It is maintained to a very high standard ensuring that we had a luxurious couple of days there. The castle is a treasure trove of beautiful furniture, art and numerous other pieces of historical interest, with the old and newer parts of the building blending together seamlessly. We were treated to amazing food by Stephanie and her team. In particular the three course dinner on the Saturday night was amazing, food sourced locally, prepared, cooked and served to a very high standard. Jackie is the lady who runs the show and it was an absolute pleasure dealing with her. She ensured that everything was as it should be and was available if we'd any queries. I have absolutely no problem in recommending this wonderful accommodation.

We were 14 friends meeting up to celebrate 60th birthday. It was excellent. The castle is amazing, the real thing. Very secluded location. Meals had been arranged for both evenings and they were delicious. We catered for ourselves for breakfast. Recommended!!!

Amazing experience staying at Ross castle for our father’s birthday. Good selection of accommodation for our family. Loved the banquet room and the large social room which accommodated our numbers very well. |Had the pleasure of a fantastic evening meal on the party night and 2 breakfasts prepared by Stephanie which were fabulous. Really appreciated the effort taken with the home made granola and beautiful fresh berries among other delights. Would definitely recommend availing of the catering provided by Stephanie, it really made the trip!

A dream Dublin getaway! We stayed here for a weekend in May 2025 with a big group and it was perfect. The location is pretty close to the city, the facilities are great, and the kitchen is well equipped. We did a catered dinner one night and the food was incredible, including meeting some specific dietary requirements for the group. Nearby archery was a great afternoon activity and overall the property was a dream. The only minus is that none of us encountered the ghost!

My wife and I stayed a week (June 20-27, 2025) with 12 other friends. The castle absolutely exceeded our expectations. Everything about the place - the history, the decor, the furnishings, the grounds - charmed and thrilled us. The place was exquisite. There was ample space to gather with a group or to find a cozy nook to read a book. Jackie the property manager was incredibly helpful and responsive, which truly enhanced our stay. Perhaps the highlight of our stay were the in-home multi-course culinary experiences (3 dinners, 2 breakfasts) prepared and served (and cleared!) by Stephanie and her crew for our entire group around one of the long dining room tables. Stephanie is a true gourmet chef and a gem of a person. Every dish was magnificent and beautifully presented (see the photo of a cake she prepared from scratch in the castle kitchen decorated with local fruits and flowers). Each meal was a treat worth every penny.

A group of 14 of us spent the weekend in Ross Castle and had the most amazing time. The castle is incredible, and absolutely perfect for a big group, with lots of different places to relax / hang out / eat meals and 7 very comfortable bedrooms. We had a delicious catered meal on Friday from Steph and her team, and then looked after ourselves with the BBQ on the Saturday. We couldn’t have asked for better - and we were already discussing our return trip before we had even left! Highly recommended.

Spent a week over New Years Eve 2024. Celebrated family wedding anniversary with 14 family/ friends. The host Jackie was wonderful . She went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. My husband was in a wheelchair and the room accommodations were excellent . Jackie and her daughter prepared a wonderful New Year’s Eve dinner. We enjoyed very interesting stories about the local folklore and area. Someday we hope to return back to our new found friends! Thank you for the wonderful experience. Barb, Charlie, Taylor and Luke

Stayed for the weekend with a big group. Great location and space, especially the upstairs that was perfect to hang out with bar and views across the lake. Was like something you'd find in BC Canada. Amazing experience with beautiful 3 course meal the first night. Space is bursting with character and history at every corner. Jackie and co were super friendly and accommodating.
