Nestled on 1,000 acres of undulating Irish countryside, dotted with ancient woodlands and glittering lakes, Castle Leslie Estate is one of the last great Irish estates still in the hands of its founding family. The Leslie Family arrived in Ireland in the 16th Century and bought the Estate at that time. Today, this Irish estate is led and managed by Brian Baldwin and Sammy Leslie and guarded by The Leslie Foundation. Sammy considers herself to be a guardian of the land, and her overwhelming desire is to protect the Estate for future generations.

On our 16 day trip around Ireland we stayed at several castle type hotels. Most were amazing Except Castle Leslie it was Definitely the lowest in customer service and cleanliness. But the most expensive in price. We stayed in the muse - it was moldy and the carpet was old,musty and dirty. The muse is located in the back of the estate. Our room was a disappointment The bathrooms were not clean They needed repainting too. The kitchen tile was dirty. Furniture uncomfortable This area was supposed to be secured by a security gate but the gate stayed open to anyone ! We felt unsafe. We had to call security one afternoon for a suspicious car and activity!! By our rental BMW Also, We lost power one might and tried to contact the desk - they never answered Our family sat in the dark for over an hour. Ne evening, We went to see the castle on the estate and were not greeted by reception- they were rude. . We ate at Conner’s bar two nights and service was a disappointment! The employees were not friendly or engaging . . Room service does not exist after 9 and the village offers nothing ! Definitely the worse stay we had on our vacation I would not recommend castle Leslie. The Lake Hotel or Ballyseede is a far better option.

The staff are very friendly and relaxed. The facilities are 5 star. The Buildings are lovely and full of character. The walks are very well signposted and lovely. The food is great especially as they cook the full Irish breakfast individually as you order it. We appreciate the charitable activities and support for other charities and businesses.

We stayed in the Old Stable Mews, using package Girls Getaway. Warm welcome, great food, very comfortable accommodation, very professional crew in the Victorian Spa... With outstanding weather allowing a lot of walking we felt really pampered.

Myself and my daughter visited Castle Leslie for the day. Our experience was excellent, but the food was a big disappointment. We had the two course set lunch in Conor's Bar, where I had the cod cheeks and my daughter had the duck wings. While the duck wings were lovely, my cod cheeks were both cold and bland. Both myself and my daughter ordered the "Mushroom Burger". It was hugely disappointing for a vegetarian option. The mushrooms were tasteless and minimal, the burger tasted as though it had come from a freezer from Lidl. Beautiful grounds, highlt trained staff, but the food falls way short of the standard :(

Our special place never disappoints, just returned home from a stay in the ‘Jigsaw Room’ at The Lodge. This was such a special touch for my birthday/retirement celebration, the room complete with private entrance was FAB. Spa & Equestrian services both used and were top notch all the way. 5* food, atmosphere & service from the staff in every area were friendly, efficient, professional & truly exceptional from start to finish. Credit to you all! Looking forward to our return again next month!!
