This was my 3rd time to visit, it gets better every time. It really is a stunning place for all ages with lots to do from tennis, table tennis, fishing, garden walks and the swimming pool and more. The pictures do not do it justice.I hope to be back again.

Marshall’s place was beautiful! If you are looking for an authentic, Irish experience stay here! Beautiful grounds, peaceful and a cool stone building to stay in. We loved it!

Situated in the idyllic setting of Ross Castle, our week in Catherine's cottage was a lovely experience for all of the family. Forming one side of a quadrant of stone-cut buildings, it has the charm and character you would expect from its historical setting yet is within easy access of local villages. Marshall and the castle staff were very considerate and helpful to ensure we had a lovely time.

It was absolutely lovely to stay in Catherine’s cottage: to be within the grounds of Ross Castle, with access to a swimming pool, a lake, an intriguing walled garden, a tennis court, a billiards room was fabulous. The cottage itself is not luxurious and if judging purely on the standard of accommodation, the price tag is unrealistically high. That said, Marshall is a genial and welcoming hostess and we had a lot of fun in a truly unique setting. This is an excellent location for exploring Galway and the wilds of Connemara.

Amazing weekend in Ross Castle, Marshall was a great host. Perfect location for a get away with lots of activities; swimming pool was lovely temperature, fabulous lake where you can take the boat out and tennis court. The grounds are incredible with a walled garden. And the mattresses were very comfortable, we had a great long weekend wish it was longer!

Fabulous grounds. Lovely host. Kids loved the swim pool which was heated! Only disappointed was the constant partying in the house next door. But wouldn’t take it away from the host as she was lovely
