Area Description

Irelands premier visitor attraction you are invited to explore three wonderful experiences, the acclaimed 15th century Bunratty Castle, the 19th century Bunratty Folk Park and the Village Street. The Castle is the most complete and authentic medieval fortress in Ireland. Built in 1425 it was restored in 1954 to its former medieval splendour and now contains mainly 15th and 16th century furnishings, tapestries, and works of art which capture the mood of those times. Today, the castle stands peacefully in delightful grounds. The houses and cottages of the folk park spread out at the foot of its massive walls, much in the way that the cottages and crofts of old would have clustered around its base. We invite you to wander through the castle and marvel at the finest collection of medieval furniture in the country which brings to life a vital part of our Medieval past. Within the grounds of Bunratty Castle is Bunratty Folk Park where 19th century life is vividly recreated. Set on 26 acres, the impressive park features over 30 buildings in a living village and rural setting. Meet and chat with the Bean an Ti (Woman of the House) and various street characters including the Policeman and Schoolteacher who give the site its sparkle during the summer months. Enjoy the tastes, scents, sights and sounds of this enchanting place as you stroll from house to house or around the charming village complete with school, post office, doctors house, hardware shop, printers and of course the pub. Its a wonderful experience for adults and children alike with something for everyone to enjoy!

Reviews for `Shannon Springs Hotel`

Caroline scored 5 / 5 on 03/01/2018

My sister and I had a fantastic 2 night stay in Shannon Springs Hotel 30th-31st December inclusive. We enjoyed the whole experience. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. The beds were comfortable and despite the hotel being very busy, it was not too noisy to sleep. The entertainment on both nights was amazing. We will definitely be coming to stay in Shannon Springs Hotel again soon. CH, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath :)
