County Sligo Vacation Rental castle

There are 6 fine double rooms, all with recently revamped private bathrooms offering lots of high pressure hot water! Sit back in the Morning Room in front of an open fire, watch the sun go down on the lake shore. Relax. Join the party at the magnificently huge mahogany dining table. The Italianate terraced gardens were laid out in 1863. If you go exploring you might find the Rose Garden and Rockery amongst the Rhodies too. There is a walled where we grow some vegetables for our kitchen - you can enjoy the results. It is beautifully sheltered with old varieties of apple trees, plums, pears and figs. We preserve most of the 600 acres of old woods and the bogs in their natural state; they are an extension of the gardens for us. There are acres of bluebells, rhododendrons, ferns, heathers or lichens and many different fungi, depending on the season.

The Lake is about 200 acres in size, 1 mile long and pear shaped, it has a limestone substrate with many springs of fresh water. There are four boats on the lake which you may use to go fishing or to visit the crannogs and promontory fort. We provide maps to show the paths, tracks, roads & many other sites of interest in the estate.
