Castle Leslie Estate

This was our third visit and it only gets better and better. Fabulous location- walks, equestrian centre, village nearby (with shop, cafe and chocolate shop) . Rooms in the Lodge are luxurious and peaceful. The new section now has a space with fridge / freezer containing water, fruit and ice for guests. This is a welcome addition. Both Snaffles restaurant and Conor's bar serve mouth watering food and drinks. Breakfast is amazing too. Staff are friendly and professional. The Castle is a short distance away and has beautiful rooms with views of the estate as well as a cosy bar. And the icing on the cake - when we were leaving a little note on the windscreen of our car let us know that someone had kindly cleaned the glass ahead of our journey home!! Thank you all. Hope to see you again soon.

I recently stayed in the stunning Castle Leslie Estate and it exceeded my expectations. We stayed in the Mews which was truly a high standard accommodation. Not only the decor but the fine detail throughout made our stay cosy and welcoming. Cannot express the dedication and commitment all the staff put into making our stay so welcoming and enjoyable. A special mention to Kevin and Conaire, their professional approach on arrival and throughout our stay was superb. We dined in Snaffles restaurant, again words can't express the detail and presentation of each course. Couldn't fault our meal and of course the service. We strolled around the grounds which again felt like walking in an enchanted fairytale. At night the castle lit up beautifully and the following morning we got to visit the stables and meet some of the gorgeous horses. I would highly recommend visiting Castle Leslie it was a magical experience for me and my friends.

We had the most fabulous experience from check in until check out. Helpful, friendly and accommodating staff; nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the self catering Old Stable Mews which provided us with two bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and an excellent outside, furnished space. Well equipped kitchen and real fire. Brilliant accommodation. Breakfast each morning at Conor’s was fulsome and delicious. Dinner at Conor’s was brilliant. Plenty of scenic walks, horse riding and a fabulous spa. A really, really excellent stay at a gorgeous Estate.

This is a truly wonderful place to experience. What Castle Leslie does well is to make you very welcome. If you like horses, even better! The staff are plentiful, attentive and pleasant and those at reception are not sitting about filing their nails or on their phones! Let me commend in particular the superb five-course fine dining experience on a Sunday night (six if you count the little treat at the end). On arrival into the bedroom (called 'Grundy') a very nice touch was a little cake each to go with a cup of tea or coffee. In order to make things even better for other guests, we have identified three issues for improvement. First and foremost: staff in the bar need to be trained to pour a full pint in order to avoid any feeling of people being short-charged for the €7.80 a pint of the gorgeous Castle Leslie lager costs. We had to mention this point twice. Second, the tablet in the bedroom never came on despite us charging it repeatedly on the docking station. Third, my missus noticed that the blinds were marked in several places with a rust colour. That's her "hotel inspector" side coming through. In all, however, other than the bar issue these are not major issues and we found the price a very good one indeed for dinner, B&B and overnight accommodation (in a very comfortable bed) for two in a luxurious setting.

Had a two night stay in Castle leslie. Hotel very clean and beds very comfortable. Food excellent in Conners bar and breakfast was really good. Could I just mention the young lad named Darragh very helpful in Conners bar nothing was too much trouble for him.All staff make you very welcome.

Lovely old style estate hotel. Every member of staff was very helpful & friendly. The food was excellent in both Snaffles Restaurant & Conor’s Bar. The walks on the estate are short enough, but they take you through some lovely woodlands & along by the lake. Would be happy to stay again.
