This was such a fun place to stay! The rooms were nice, clean and cozy. There was a total for 5 beds. One was a queen in one room, with its own shower/bath. Be advised all of the showers are small, about 3ft by 3ft. The other 2 bedrooms have 2 twin beds in each and each had its own... More

We stayed in one of these "cottages"--really a Townhouse--for 6 nights, booked through Sceptre Tours. It was perfect and extremely clean! There are 3 bedrooms, 2 upstairs and both ensuite, and one downstairs with a full bath. There is a living room, a dining area and a fully-equipped kitchen, complete with a dishwasher and a small washer/dryer combo. The beds... More

We stayed for a weekend in January in a 3 bedroom cottage. The heating was on for our arrival and it was lovely and comfortable. The cottage was clean and well equipped with all mod cons. It is perfect for a family. The cottages are right beside Bunratty Castle. The location was ten minutes by car from Limerick city and... More

We stayed here through Sceptre tours. The 3 bedroom/3 bathroom cottage was adorable. It was so nice to have a "home" base. Having a living room to hang out in on the nights we didn't go to pubs was very comfortable. The well equipped kitchen was very helpful for a quick breakfast before exploring for the day. We found everything... More

Booked a Sceptre special with air/car/rooms. Four of us shared a 2-story cottage on Oct 18. Yes, 3 bedrooms and 3 baths! Kitchen was well equipped and living room had wifi and TV with a dining room table. Not very many units were occupied in the 'off' season. Units have been repainted within 3 yrs--not a Hilton but better than... More

My husband and I and two of our daughters (ages 24 and 17) visited Ireland in early July. The Bunratty was part of out vacation package and I must say it turned out to be a wonderful place to stay. Don't let first impressions turn you off. When driving in the place looks deserted. Our townhouse was very comfortable. Having... More

We are staying here now. It's great. I agee with all the recent positive comments so I'm not going to re-post. It is very clean and close to Shannon, and restaurants. We especially like that after long day of touring we can always eat here. Sometimes we just didn't find a place for dinner because we didnt want to randomly... More

Two adult couples stayed in one of the 3 bedroom townhomes. We knew in advance to bring our own hairdryers and toiletries. We also knew we'd have to do some shopping to get the kitchen basics (paper towels, coffee, filters, wine, beer, etc.). Have to admit that finding the place took us a few minutes extra, but remembered reading from... More

We just returned from a stay at Bunratty Castle Gardens Townhouses arranged through Sceptre Tours. The price was good and the accomodation was clean and that is it for any positives about this particular accomodation. The host, Joan, was rather brusque when we arrived tired from an overnight flight and the place is veyr difficult to find within the welter... More
