Family Vacation
We absolutely recommend staying here!! We had 15 people staying here for the New Years Holiday and it was absolutely the best. While in a small town the property was centrally located for us to see many historical sights.

Staying at an Irish Castle
We truly got the feel of the Irish countryside by staying here. It is very rural but was a great center point for us as we traveled to different towns and castles in the are. The home accommodated our large family of adult children and grandchildren. Loved the backyard for several pick up soccer games! Anthony and Eileen were very responsive to questions. Great place to stay with a large group or family.

50th Anniversary Intergenerational Adventure
The entire family found the accommodations fun and functional - walking to a little park and / or town was easy. There is a lovely little grocery store and a nice spot or two for pizza take out!

Amazing family party
We had my husbands 50th birthday at Killaghy Castle with some family and friends and had an amazing time. We all LOVED the space and Marie, Eileen and Anthony were just so helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend staying here, so spacious and grounds are beautiful.

Wonderful Retreat!
We had an amazing time at this awesome castle with comfortable accommodations for our large group of family and friends ranging in age from 25 to 82 years old! We had an awesome time getting to know many Mullinahone locals, loved the local pub write down the street, loved the area (several local hiking spots and many other day trip options from biking, to several historical sites) ... so much to do and such a beautiful setting. Also hired a chef for a birthday dinner at the castle! Amazing time! GPS was a little wonky getting to the castle ... but a quick call to the Host squared us away!

Texans live Royally
Eileen and Anthony are amazing hosts! Our time was short and fast paced so coming home to a castle every night was wonderful. Everything we needed was ready and waiting for us. The kitchen is grand and the grounds just immaculate. I could live my days at Killaghy and spend my nights at TJ Macs in Mullinahone as long as I was blessed to be on this earth. Do not pass up the chance to live like royalty!
