The 800-year-old Ashford Castle offers a unique stay in Ireland's picturesque County Mayo. Set on 350 beautifully landscaped acres, the first and only Forbes 5-star hotel in the country has much to offer. Book a treatment at the award-winning spa, named Ireland’s Best Hotel Spa. Indulge in a sumptuous meal sourced from local producers (or from the hotel's gardens) at one of the six restaurants on the estate or sit down for an authentic Afternoon Tea. But it's not all about experiences within the exquisitely decorated castle—cruise the Lough Corrib lake, walk the estate's gardens or local trails, or even try your hand at falconry at the oldest established school in Ireland.
