About the Hotel

A thirteenth century castle buried deep in a wooded parkland sounds like the setting for a fairy tale, but really it is home to the exclusive Ashford Castle. Standing impressively on the shores of Lough Corrib in County Mayo, Ireland, Ashford Castle is a monument to a fascinating and timeless history. Once the Guinness Family estate, the Castle has since opened its doors as an exclusive luxury hotel in 1939. Where else could one spend the morning learning how to fly a hawk at the School of Falconry, escape to the Walled Garden for a romantic picnic, and relax in the afternoon with a soothing massage at the spa? Filled with family heirlooms, rich furnishings and priceless objets dâ€(TM)art, Ashford presents the chance to enjoy the splendor of a bygone era in comfort and style.

Absolutely stunning

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

If you can afford just one night, this is a must stay castle to try.This was the highlight of our multi country trip.The staff are welcoming and nothing is too much trouble.Our room was small but pretty with a lovely view.The bathroom was large.All the food from the High Tea to 5 course dinner to huge buffet breakfast was outstanding.There is alot to do if you want,like golf,fishing,indoor pool and spa,wine tasting and hawke walk which is what we did and I would absolutely recommend.Lots of parking.

Bucket List Experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

This is a bucket list hotel, the hotel and grounds are stunning and we had a lot of fun doing the activities. I'm particular about food and every meal we had here was incredible. What really makes the experience is the staff, they are FANTASTIC and really define Irish hospitality. Definitely worth the splurge!

Everything you could ever want at one location!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

You can’t go wrong with a stay at Ashford Castle! The grounds are stunning, staff is wonderful, food and wine is spectacular, and the activities are unbelievable! There is truly something for everyone. Our room was gorgeous with an amazing view of the lake. Falconry is a must do as well as the Blas experience (wine tasting with the head sommelier,Paul Fogerty, and a 5 course meal with head chef Liam!)

Wow what a beautiful place, setting, location,I actually stayed in Ashford lodge within the grounds but next time the castle is a must, the west coast can be a little wild, just dress accordingly, sometimes in life you just need to pay for the best and this is what in in offer here A must visit location

Castle Magic, Warm & Friendly Hospitality

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 5 days ago

We had the most lovely stay at the Lodge at Ashford Castle. Thanks to the personal touch of the reservations and front desk team, we were able to accomodate all the activities we had hoped to enjoy in our brief stay and more. Wilde's restaurant was so lovely and delicious, that we ended up dining there multiple nights during our stay. The Quay Bar was comfortable and convenient, and loved the culinary and beverage options. Above all else, the warm and friendly hospitality of the entire staff was impeccable. Manager Deirdre was truly thoughtful going above and beyond to ensure that we felt welcome and well accommodated -- the personal touch that the entire team brought to the experience made this perhaps the most exceptional of 5-star resort experiences. Cannot recommend this enough. Telling all my friends. Thank you!

This is one of the finest properties we have ever visited. It is a beautiful castle, but it is also a world class hotel in the most beautiful setting you can imagine. The grounds are large and bikes are available for guests, the fishing on the river and the lake are first rate, and the service is unmatched. We have stayed twice and can't wait to go back again.
