A one night stay at family-friendly Dromoland Castle in County Clare, Ireland.
Staying in an Irish castle was a priority when planning spring break in Ireland with our 12 year-old. Emma has always been a bit of a princess (she’s my daughter!) so we knew she would be delighted by the mere thought of sleeping in a real castle. Having previously stayed at Ashford Castle and Waterford Castle, my husband and I preferred to experience a different castle and it had to be within driving distance of Killarney due to our St. Patrick’s Day plans. Dromoland Castle was exactly what we were looking for.

Now, you have me dreaming of staying at this castle. Imagine when it was some family’s home! I really like that they welcome young children and have special amenities and activities for them. I definitely need to keep this place in mind.
