Check out: Ballynahinch Castle and two other recently refurbished hotels

There’s an inviting fishing and hunter lodge feel to the vibe; the kind of spot you’d pop off your Hunter wellies at the door before curling up with a pint and a game of Scrabble — pure Country Living luxury

Ballynahinch Castle

As tourism jets off to a far more promising start in 2022 (not least thanks to last week’s easing of restrictions), many travellers will be feeling more confident booking their next overseas holiday or holiday in Ireland. The pandemic has seen venues across the country carry out refurbs to woo guests, and I recently checked into Ballynahinch Castle in the heart of Connemara to experience the latest look of this West of Ireland classic.
