Visiting Limerick? Take a look at the Castleoaks House Hotel

If you are contemplating visiting Limerick, in Ireland's Mid West Region then take some time to check out the beautiful Castleoaks House Hotel, nestling in the pretty village of Castleconnell.
Situated just six miles from Limerick City, this Hotel is on the banks of the Majestic River Shannon and in fact the River is visible through the Hotel Carpark.

The River Walk below the Hotel is unsurpassed and for lovers of Birdlife there is plenty to be seen...Swans who are resident along the whole stretch, Ducks, Wagtails and the Lordly Heron are just some of the delights.This stretch is World renowned for its Salmon Fishing.

As a resident of County Limerick for 25 years my Family has used the Hotel throughout this period for casual drinks and more formal Dinners; for Christmas functions and for more sombre Family gatherings.It is a restful and calming location with excellent food and service.

On the occasions when the Sun does shine you can sit outside and sip your drink and let the Shannon wash your cares gently away.

Since the village of Castleconnell is right in the middle of one of our Learner Driver Circuits it makes an ideal spot for a welcome break. We have coached numerous students from the area over the last few years and in fact the current photos on the Astral Driving School Web Site were taken in the Hotel Car Park with the Shannon as a backdrop.I expect we will take more in the future since it is a magical spot.

As a secluded spot the Hotel makes for a wonderful quiet tete a tete with a close friend or loved one, and the flower garden and shrubbery should be very pleasing to the keen Gardener.For the fleet of foot and Gym enthusiast the Health club offers great facilities.

For those less energetic, a gentle stroll along the River Walk will provide a healthy option and give you a great appetite for lunch.My favourite lunch or early evening meal would be the inimitable Chowder which is surely the best I have tasted in my life.As a Fisherman for more years than I care to remember I do know my seafood!

For Drivers leaving the Hotel, take care as the the road can be rather busy during peak holiday times and particularly at weekends.
