Ashford castle is amazing. The grounds and accommodations are gorgeous. I wish i would have had more time at the castle and visited Cong, the town just outside. It wS all beautiful. I recommend at least one full day if not too. I would have loved the boat tour and we wanted to do the falcon walk but should have booked ahead. Day of there was no availability. Id also make dinner reservations at one of the 3 hotel restaurants before your trip Enjoy the amazing place.

Once in a Lifetime Trip
Grounds are beautiful and you are treated like royalty from the moment you enter the hotel. You receive an orientation and you do receive calls to check in on how you are doing. There is no need to leave the grounds since there are a few restaurants to pick from on-premise. Short walk to Cong is you want to check out the Quiet Man bar. We stayed two days and wish it was longer.
Falconry experience at the Ashford.
