Property information

Traditional Historical Irish Pub in the beautiful Castleconnell village. On the banks of the river Shannon, a peaceful setting with safe secure parking. This building is over 200 years old and has been through many transitions. A coach house, family home and pub. Our guests must remember that with a 200 year old building comes some character. These rooms are located above a traditional Irish pub and have a shared bathroom. We do a great job on providing a great stay, but as mentioned above, expectations must be set.
