Luxury estate, nestled in 21 acres of lush green Meath countryside. The Georgian mansion which welcomes visitors today was originally built in 1764, on the same site as the original castle. Though it’s been extensively refurbished in the centuries since, it retains the charm of the era it was built in. A sweeping tree lined drive and manicured gardens offer a grand approach, while on the interior, pretty stucco plasterwork cornices decorate the halls and chandeliers glitter from ceiling.

For the most part, all the hotels were very good. The last hotel North Star in Dublin was not as good as all the other hotels we stayed at. For the most part, the meals were excellent. The lunch at the Kilarney Design Ctr. was not very good.

My husband and I just returned from the 10-day Irish Legends Tour (June 28 - July 7, 2019.) This was our first time to Europe and our first tour. We had researched the various tour companies online and ultimately chose CIE for the great reviews and the all inclusiveness. We were not disappointed. We booked the trip directly thru CIE. Although the process was smooth, I feel the agent could have given us more information about creating the account to manage our payments and offer a little more information about the tour in general since it was our first tour. We took advantage of a 2-for-1 airline promotion CIE was offering which allowed us to upgrade to economy plus! We initially booked American Airlines flights, but switched to United Airlines, and CIE was great about making the change for us. CIE responded to inquiries in a timely manner. We received our travel documents on time. Along with the travel documents we were surprised to receive backpacks that included a documentation wallet, poncho, luggage strap, a set of international travel adapters, and luggage tags. Once we arrived at the Dublin airport we made our way to the CIE counter where they were so organized! This is where we met our AWESOME tour guide, Phillip, who did all the thinking for us! He was so knowledgeable and made it so much more interesting. Irish Legends was a great tour! We had a great group of people on our tour! The hotel accommodations were great! Although, beware, some hotels do not have air conditioning! We would have liked more variety for the dinner selections. We got to see the top attractions during the day and venture out at night to see a show or listen to some music while enjoying a drink or two! It was well worth the money. CIE made group travel fun, with well-planned stops and an organized trip. It was a relaxing and great way to visit Ireland. We would definitely take another CIE tour and recommend it to anyone thinking about checking Ireland off their bucket list!
