Accommodation (Self Catering House, sleeps: 10)

Castle Townshend has been the seat of the Townshend family in Ireland for many generations. The centre part was built around 1650. The original Castles were destroyed in the 17/18th Centuries. The two towers were then added to the present Castle, using the stone from the ruined Castle.
Castle Gardens House as its name suggests is located within a quiet courtyard in the castle gardens.
