Rock of Dunamase

Vikings, Normans, a kidnapped princess, and a mysteriously ruined castle! Come on, you gotta get here!

As a photographer living in Ireland I'd love the opportunity to compare another ancient island civilization that is geographically in the opposite corner of Europe. The juxtopositon could be amazing!

7.4/10 Good! (19 reviews)

The Homestay Room was clean and modern. It is close to a petrol station convience store. A pub and take away is in walking distance. Ciara checked me in and was accomodating. I had difficulty using the house key and shower controls due to my infamiliarity. All said I enjoyed my stay in Ballyboughal.
