Kilcogan Castle
Ireland / Kilcogan, County Galway
Experience a majestic Galway family retreat that's steeped in history, surrounded by wildlife and water, and close to the area's most fascinating places.
Though it's only a short drive from bustling Galway City, you'll feel as though you've stepped back in time with a private stay at the mesmerising, historic Kilcolgan Castle.
Boasting a wealth of ancient stories, you'll enjoy a tour of the castle... and get to meet the resident hens, cats, and champion greyhounds, to help you settle in!
There are two comfy bedrooms at the top of the tower; one equipped with a double and single bed, and one twin room... which makes this a particularly special retreat for families with something to celebrate.
While away some time browsing the library, bursting with vintage books, or take advantage of the exclusive fishing rights on the private water, on which you can also watch wild birds glide languorously past.
You'll be close to the Burren, Connemara, and Aran Islands for fascinating day trips, though if you'd prefer to simply take a turn around the castle's nine fresh acres of green fields, imagining yourself as an ancient royal, then who are we to argue?
