This year we stayed at Castle Demesne House for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Josephine was a welcoming and considerate owner and the interior of the property was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The view of the coastline from the verandah at the front of the house was superb and we spent many delightful hours out there in perfect contentment.

We were greeted by our host nearby, she lead us to the property which gave us outstanding views as soon as we turned into the drive way. There is plenty of space to park (we tucked our car around the back of the property so it wasn't in our view - we wanted to make the most of every bit of that amazing all around view!!!). Our host gave us a very warm welcome and was able to offer advice on local attractions etc. We were able to relax into our holiday straight away and felt so lucky to be in such idyllic surroundings. We had everything we needed in the property and were very comfortable throughout. The driving from this property is easy and pleasurable to get to anywhere you want to visit in Connemara and the surrounding areas. Always a pleasure to return to the property at the end of the day and make use of the cushioned patio furniture with a glass of wine in hand and yet more chances to enjoy that view!
