  • I stayed at Castle Hackett the end of April 09 for 10 days. What a blast! The proprietors Donagh and Phillip are real characters. The building itself is a true piece of Irish history. Accommodations are much like they were hundreds of years ago (plus showers and toilets of course:-) The grounds are very large (over 100 acres) and if you want a tour of the grazing sheep (I was there during lambing and helped feed the lambs) or the horses or if you want to fetch some eggs out of the hen house. I'll bet they might accomidate you. If you are into flying planes, there are some really cool ones in the hangar and there is a runway (of sorts) as well. The pub near by at Headford called Campbells has lots of locals and live music and is a great place to "thow back a pint or two". Then, of course, theres Galway near by. What a great town! With the river running right through it and great pubs, entertainment and shops galore. If you're not too prissy and want an authentic Irish experience...I highly recommend Castle Hackett. I'll sure be back. Bela
