Ashford Castle is a mainly Victorian and medieval castle near Cong on the County Mayo–Galway border in Ireland. Once the home of the Guinness family, the castle offers 83 individually designed rooms and suites, along with a variety of dining options and wellness services. The magnificent five-star Ashford Castle is set in 350 acres, on the picturesque shores of Lough Corrib. Dating back to 1228, the castle is now a jewel in the collection of Red Carnation Hotels, and has been recognised as a prestigious Forbes Five-Star hotel.
Ashford Castle offers rooms, cottages, sports, activities, restaurants, bars, spa facilities, and hosts weddings and events. Ashford Castle is celebrated for its historic charm, award-winning dining, and a range of exclusive experiences, from falconry to boat trips on the lake. When Ashford Castle was purchased by The Red Carnation Hotel Collection in 2013, it marked another extraordinary time in the history of the estate.
