Dromoland Castle

Welcome to Dromoland Castle

Our Castle is your Castle

Located in the heart of County Clare, the 16th century Dromoland Castle is a self-contained world of light-hearted luxury.  Surrounded by five hundred acres of unspoiled parklands and woodlands, steeped in a thousand years of eventful history, Dromoland is brimming with an irrepressible spirit of five-star delight.

Prepare to be welcomed like family, treated like royalty, and spoiled within an inch of your life.

With a lineage that dates  back to one of Ireland’s last High Kings – Brian Ború the castle is steeped in storytelling, but Dromoland’s true magic is something much more down-to-earth. It’s a real, living thing, rooted in the landscapes and local legends of County Clare.

You’ll encounter that magic when you meet the cast of characters who fill the Castle, the people and their personalities, the stories they tell and the songs they share. It’s the ease and laughter which banish all airs and graces and dispel any ghost of cold formality. It’s the warmth and wit and most of all, the welcome.
