The stay was fantastic. The rooms were clean and the experience was pleasant. The tower and surrounding environment made for a unique and nostalgic feel. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely choose again if given the chance!

The Castlehouse near Templemore was fantastic. It’s in a great central location to see a lot of different sites in Ireland. It’s a beautiful property with great views. It is very quiet and peaceful. Dave was very helpful and answered all our questions. We also were welcomed by their two sweet dogs when we arrived. We definitely recommend this property!

We had a fantastic time, the rental was well setup for playing games and a writing retreat! We were all very comfortable. We also had some amazing trips in the are like visiting Devil's Bit and ran into the owners of an old mill and castle and were given unofficial tours! Unbeatable trip!

We got a wonderful time there. Perfect place to stay for discovering the area and to reach some wonderful hiking paths. The park of Templemore is absolutely worth a visit! We used the first hours inside the house only for discovering the big collection of books and boardgames. If you want to do an rest day, you got enough to explore!

A truly ethereal location, unlike anything we have ever encountered. The accommodation so reflects the owners, Dave and Suzanne, who were so warm and friendly. If you want something different, gothic/eclectic, in a beautiful mid-Ireland settlement, this is for you! And it was dog friendly! Loved it!

Beautiful property and very comfortable. A little disappointed that listing had not been updated to reflect that nearby pub had been closed. Communication with owners was fantastic as there was an issue with their property managers and they made things right.

Dave and Susana are excellent hosts. All was as described in the listing and their home was easy to find. They kindly had milk, eggs and butter for us in the fridge, as well as tea, coffee, sugar etc. Dave greeted us on arrival and shared helpful suggestions on hikes, outings and restaurants. We also got the chance to meet their adorable dogs the next day.

Beautiful restored tower. Really enjoyed our two nights there with our puppy. Plenty of garden space for her to run around in. Pub two mins down the road for an evening drink. Only accepts cash, no food, very small, but lovely people in there. Short drive to templemore where all the amenities are. Can’t recommend this place enough to spend some nights :)

Very clear and cute house. Steps to the second floor are concrete and narrow. This is not to be negative but it is better to use a small suitcase to take upstairs. They list a washer but their house rules are not to use it.

Apologies for the washer confusion. Our guests are indeed allowed to use it. I had mistakenly printed an out of date sheet of house rules. Thanks for highlighting my error and I'm sorry you didn't ask us about it...

Wer das Besondere liebt, ist hier genau richtig.

Wir haben die besondere Atmosphäre dieses Hauses sehr geliebt. Um es richtig genießen zu können müsste man im Castel House eine Überwinterung buchen, wir waren leider nur 5 Nächte hier. Findet selbst heraus was das besondere ist. Wir können es nur befürworten. Alles was gebraucht wird, ist vorhanden.
