Located on the banks of the beautiful Kilcolgan River overlooking Galway Bay, this castle dates from the 11th century. It was rebuilt in the late 18th century, incorporating some of the walls of the earlier stronghold. The present owner has renovated and decorated the castle to the highest standards to include every modern comfort, while maintaining its unique atmosphere. The four gracious reception rooms have commanding views over the water.
As a guest you will have exclusive fishing rights on the stretch of river flowing alongside the castle perimeter, famous for its Salmon and trout. Game shooting is also permitted in season.
