Castle Ellen really is a totally different kind of experience than the usual.The room was pleasant and there was a shower and hot water and the makings of tea in the morning: our bed was really comfortable and there was a lovely crackling fire of logs in the hearth!
But the real pleasure was meeting our gracious and charming host Michael; he was excellent company, very courteous and hospitable and entertained us with many anecdotes, sitting beside the fire with a glass of wine.
He gave us a guided tour of the premises and we marvelled at the many antiquities he has collected as well as the leafy grounds. However guests should be warned that there are piles of things everywhere and a disabled person would probably not be safe!
Ba mhór an pléisiúr é Micheal a chur in aithne agus bhaineamar taitneamh mór as an taithí!Go raibh míle maith agat a Mhícheal dhíl, as ucht gach rud a rinne tú dúinn agus an fáiltechroíúil a chur tú romhainn,
Peter and Kate
