Dromoland Castle Newmarket-on-Fergus, County Clare
Located 13km from Shannon Airport Dromoland
is one of Ireland's finest castle hotels. The castle, a magnificent
Renaissance structure built in the 16th century, was once the royal
seat of the O'Brien clan. Refurbished and transformed into a luxury
hotel in 1962, it retains priceless reminders of the Castle's historic
past. Splendid woodcarvings and stone statuary, hand-carved panelling
and fine antique furnishings surround guests.
Facilities on offer within the 375-acre estate include fishing,
hunting, horse riding, boating, tennis and of course Golf.
For those in search of more luxurious pastimes indulging in the
superb Spa is highly recommended.
Its two restaurants, The Earl of Thomond and The Fig Tree provide
a dining experience that is not to be missed.
