Remodelled historical house w/ 17th century tower. Pet friendly. Boardgames!

Castle House features a unique 17th century tower and a 250 year old farmhouse incorporated into the fabric of a modern home creating a rather unorthodox layout, combining the traditional and the cutting edge in a beautiful, quaint setting.

This listing is for the self-contained guest wing of our house, ensuring you complete privacy with sole use of the space and its amenities.
The space
The castellated tower is definitely the feature which draws the most attention, but Castle House has so much to offer.
Located in the small village of Killea, near the foot of Devil's Bit Mountain, we are surrounded by lush countryside.
During your stay you can enjoy the beautiful views from our garden and relax in the unique comfort of the house itself.
We also have a huge library of boardgames for our guests to play and enjoy while here.
There are many leisurely pursuits available around Killea and Templemore, such as golf, horse riding, fishing or hiking.
And in the evening there is entertainment and refreshment almost on our very doorstep at the O'Sullivans pub, renowned far and wide for its friendly atmosphere, live traditional music and for serving a perfect pint of Guinness!

We are a little over five kilometres from the town of Templemore on a relatively untraveled rural road.
The junction to the M7 motorway is 15 km from Castle House, and from there you have an easy and direct route either East towards Dublin (about 1 hour and 40 mins) or West to Limerick (about 45 mins) and then on to Galway.
This makes both Dublin Airport and Shannon Airport very convenient.

Guest access
Aswell as their bedrooms and shower/bathrooms, guests have access to their own private Kitchen, living room and reading/relaxing mezzanine area.
Guests are also welcome to explore and relax anywhere in the garden grounds.

As we charge by person per night, please let us know how many rooms and beds you require for you and your group.
Other things to note
Pet Friendly
Large selection of books, board and card games available for use while you stay.
TV, connected to the internet, with a selection of Dvds and old console games.

Please note we do not allow children under 12 or visitors on the property unless previously agreed.

Due to the small window of opportunity to get the house ready for the next guests, check out is by 11am sharp or a Late Checkout fee will be applied.

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.

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.
