Ashford Castle

Cong, County Mayo, F31 CA48, Ireland

The Boathouse

Constructed more than a century ago and dating back to the time when the estate was owned by the Guinness family, our enchanting, stand-alone and lovingly restored boathouse is perched on the edge of Lough Corrib, a few minutes from the castle. Enjoying uninterrupted lake views to the front and surrounded by private gardens and terraces, guests enjoy peace, quiet and total privacy, with just the soothing sounds of the gently lapping waters for company.

Once through the gates, unlock your own front door and you’ll surely feel at home in no time. Relax on your private lakeside terrace and soak in the panoramic water vistas. Dine à deux inside or al fresco on the finest cuisine West Ireland has to offer. And if you can tear yourself away from your charming home-away-from-home, a pair of bicycles are at your disposal and a 24-hour butler is at your beck-and-call to personally showcase the very best that the spectacular Ashford Castle Estate has to offer.
