Savour your first glimpse of this majestic castle and its enchanting lake, as you pass through the castle gates. This was the ancestral home of the O’Briens of Dromoland who were the Kings of Thomond and whose lineage goes back 1,000 years to Brian Boru, the only High King of Ireland.

Mini moon of dreams - we arrived to Dromoland Castle and stayed in the Viscount Room for two nights. To say we were blown away by the attention to detail and level of care we received is an understatement. From check in to drinks in the gallery, we were always made feel so welcomed and special. We booked clay pigeon shooting with Patsy which was so gorgeous and wholesome, to spend time with a man with so much knowledge of the grounds and area whilst also so much fun with the shooting was the perfect way to spend an hour. We booked in for the fine dining restaurant and our sommelier couldn’t have made it any more special, assisting with wine choices for every course made it so special and an experience never to be forgotten. Last note to mention Darragh, both nights he helped select cocktails, whiskeys, night caps to finish on whilst again chatting with us and making us feel so welcomed and care for. I never saw him without a smile on his face Dromoland made a special trip, extra special ❤️

Absolutely amazing from the drive in to when you first see the castle, stunning. Then the fabulous grounds and gardens. Arriving at the front door and greeted by the friendly staff but that did not stop there, the staff all through the castle were amazing. They could not do enough for us, everything no problem. 10 out of 10. Can’t wait to go back.

A welcome Spring break, 3 nights at Dromoland Castle in a Queen Anne courtyard room. This is hospitality at its finest, superb accommodation in a magnificent setting. All staff very attentive, housekeeping exceptional. We managed to explore all the dining options, The Gallery, The Fig Tree and The Earl of Thomond, each of them offering wonderful cuisine with faultless service. We would return in a heartbeat, thank you to all at Dromoland who made our stay very special.

Lovely hotel and grounds; we had a great room, upgraded free-of-charge. The staff were delightful - very friendly and helpful, with a special shout-out to concierges John and Richard, and Lucy who served us at the bar. Only negative was the spa and thermal suite - the spa area was just six treatment rooms, while the thermal suites comprised a sauna room, steam room and pool in the Leisure Centre which was in a separate building -not really a five-star experience! But overall we really enjoyed our stay and would go again
