Nestled cozily in Connemara National Park, within the heart of the scenic West Coast province of Galway, the gated Castle Hotel is encircled by the green mountain backdrops for which Ireland is renowned. At the base of a mountain, the Ballynahinch Castle sits on the shores of a lake where in the summer months you can enjoy the tranquility of fishing and a rowboat ride around the lake. Ideal for horseback riding, the Ballynahinch Castle offers its guest the experience to take a horse on one of its trails to experience the real Ireland. In what many claim to be the heart of Ireland, by the time you leave, the Irish hospitality will leave you wanting to return and saying Erin go bragh as an honorary Irishman.
