IRELAND - DROMOLAND CASTLE

Dromoland is one of Ireland's finest castle hotels, offering guests the experience of living like landed gentry, surrounded by luxury, beauty and service. Dromoland is one of the few Estates tracing its history to native Gaelic Irish families of royal heritage.

The castle, a magnificent Renaissance structure built in the 16th century, was once the royal seat of the O'Brien clan, direct descendants of Irish King Brian Boru. Refurbished and transformed into a luxury hotel in 1962, it retains priceless reminders of the Castle's historic past.
