The rooms at Ashford are timeless and follow the traditional elegance belonging to the opulence of the castle origins. They have been individually designed to provide modern luxuries while having the finesse of a suite befitting the authentic setting. The furnishings have been lovingly complemented with unique pieces of art and antique furniture. For a more secluded stay, choose the idyllic Hideaway Cottage. A former boathouse dating back to when the castle was home to the iconic Guiness family. Surrounded by private gardens and filled with unique treasures such as a blue Murano glass chandelier, it is an eclectic beautifully designed space, great for staying on the estate with an added bonus of privacy. 

With 350 acres to toy with, enjoy country classic pastimes such as horse riding, fishing, falconry, shooting, golf cycling and kayaking. After a day exploring head to Ireland’s best Spa, to restore beauty and balance to mind, body and soul. A complete haven of tranquillity, go on a journey with your personalised therapist, and float back to your suite nurtured and pampered. The options for dining at Ashford Castle are endless. With a real mix of bistro style, more casual dining arrangements to high tea and a luxury fine dining experience in the George V dining room. Whatever you fancy on a particular evening, the gastronomy is exquisite accompanied with copious, jovial Irish charm, whether dining on Seared Scallops and Skeaghanore Duck or tucking into the foot-long chili dog in the Stanley’s the American diner.
