Looking for castles to stay 2 night in ireland
Jan, castles in Ireland was actually the cover story of Budget Travel this month. Here's the online link: http://budgettravel.com/bt-dyn/content/article/2009/09/09/AR2009090901974.html
Ashford Castle has been having huge sales - 50% and more www.ashford.ie
Pricey, but authentic, and a great place to stay!
Actually, Ashford isn't particularly authentic. It looks somewhat Norman in style, but that section was actually built in the 19th century, not the 11th. Regardless, it is a lovely place and certainly worth the indulgence.
