Absolutely loved our time staying at the Ballyseede Castle ! It was our first time staying in a castle so we were very excited. The rooms were stunningly beautiful fit for royality. The grounds were also very lovely. We had a great meal in the dining room with excellent service and a yummy breakfast included. I even went looking for the ghost of Hilda (one of the previous owners) on the third floor but did not find her. And we loved the bonus of the adorable dogs on the property ! There were two Irish wolfhounds (Dolan and Joe) plus two adorable smaller dogs (Charlie and Hope) all very friendly. There was nothing quite like our stay at Ballyseede Castle, we will remember it forever !

Amazing stay! The staff are very attentive and the animals at the property add a very nice touch. You can tell that the owners truly care. We did have one issue, which was that we were served gluten by mistake, but the staff handled it very professionally. Overall, I would highly recommend and we will come back!
