Cashel Palace Hotel
A Magnificent Regal Manor
What we think
Skylark only includes hotels that meet our stamp of approval. Our editorial review for this one isn’t ready yet — but we’re working on it! Below is the hotel’s own description.
At the foot of a hill, in the shadow of Ireland's most iconic medieval site, the Rock of Cashel, stands another architectural masterpiece, Cashel Palace. Built in 1728 by Sir Edward Lovett Pearce, the architect who designed the Parliament House in Dublin, this red brick manor was once the residence of Ireland's archbishops. It is a brilliant blend of classicism and sophistication with a facade that hides behind its symmetrical layout a world of surprises: majestic colonnaded hall walls covered in detailed wood paneling staircases with handrails carved in the shape of candy canes and rooms that seem to have been taken from a fairy tale. With its English-style gardens, comfortable sofas warmed by the cozy fire of the bar, and a spa bathed in light, Cashel Palace takes its guests on a magical journey. It is an idyllic refuge where you can recharge your batteries before plunging into the area's Celtic history or wandering through the enchanting moorland.
