HOW TO EVEN BEGIN. I'm going to start by trying not to be so sappy. My girlfriends and I couldn't believe we were staying in a real life castle but then when we showed up and meet Daphne it's was everything plus more, beyond our wildest expectations. Literally went beyond our wildest dreams. I think she thought we were a little strange because we couldn't stop screaming in excitement and stating how this was so cool. ( it is so I can't even under play it). Haha. The little things she did to make our stay amazing: i.e.: put up a sign with our names welcoming us, made us fresh scones and tea on arrival, left three robes on our beds, a bottle of wine for our pleasure, a home made fresh breakfast ( her spread of home made breakfast was better than anything you could ever by). This truly was a dream come true. I want to cry even writing this with such excitement, joy, and thankfulness. One would NEVER regrets staying here. Please don't come to Ireland without being a guest of this castle. Thank you Daphne- you made our year!
