The Lodge at Ashford Castle

Country house charm

Originally built in 1865 for the Estate Manager of 800-year-old Ashford Castle, The Lodge at Ashford Castle is a proud part of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection, featuring elegant white-washed architecture and views that rival the best in the world. Windows frame inspiring vistas over placid Lough Corrib, one of Ireland’s largest lakes, backed by the rolling, emerald hills of Connemara. The Lodge offers country house charm, fine dining in Wilde’s Restaurant, and an exceptional collection of estate activities. This destination is one of Ireland’s finest for weddings, pairing warm Irish hospitality with a modern appeal.

BEAUTY IN EVERY DETAIL

Discover individually designed, beautifully furnished and generously proportioned rooms and suites. You’ll enjoy rich deep pile carpets, super king beds with goose down duvets and pillows, and chic furniture and beautiful art. Traditional sash windows allow you to breathe the pure air for which the West of Ireland is famed and all of the bathrooms offer extra-soft towels and luxury toiletries.
