If you come to Dublin, you must stay in a castle! Experience the life of a little princess

If you come to Dublin, you must stay in a castle! Experience the life of a little princess. We booked two nights at Dromoland Castle in Ireland. We originally wanted to book the royal family's favorite Ashford Castle, but unfortunately it was full on the weekend (we really can't afford the presidential suite...) D's fame overseas is slightly smaller than A's, but when the customs officer learned that we were going to stay at D's, he directly 'Wow' came out and the official website picture was too fancy! We decided to book it immediately after seeing it. The fact proves that the real scene is 100 times better than the official website picture! Arrival method: Self-driving from Dublin or Galway, there is a conspicuous castle sign at the highway exit. The butler will check the reservation record at the entrance of the manor, park the car at the entrance of the hall, and the butler will come to park the car and deliver the luggage to the room. We just need to check in easily-remember to tip, the butlers here are all white-haired and dressed in uniforms of Irish grandfathers, we usually give 5-10 euros, if there is a lot of luggage such as ball equipment and horse equipment, please also increase it appropriately. During the stay, you can make an appointment for self-funded activities at the front desk: -Golf: There is a professional golf course and club here, guests can make an appointment for a coach and rent golf equipment -Fishing or banana boat: There is a small pier by the lake, but I'm not sure if fishing gear can be rented. -Equestrian: There is no horse farm in the castle, but guests can help book a nearby horse farm, and children can also book pony teaching. We didn't have time to go because we played at the Cliffs of Moher for a day, what a pity -Carriage tour: non-riding project, mainly for sightseeing. -Play with eagles: This is really high-end! I saw a falcon trainer on the day I arrived, with a super handsome falcon standing on his arm! Falcon training is an ancient tradition of the nobility, if you have the courage to try, you can experience it!¥4¥4 Restaurant: Although there is no Michelin star, the standard is completely according to the Michelin standard, requiring formal wear. Dinner needs to be booked in advance. We checked in on Saturday night, and the restaurant was full! Each table will eat for a long time, if you don't book, you won't be able to eat... Everyone is dressed beautifully, even the waiters and sommeliers are handsome! Men's suit pockets should be added with small silk scarves, and women should wear their best-looking cocktail dresses. The environment and service are impeccable, there is a harp-playing sister, each table has an exclusive waiter, and they will come over to chat during the waiting period to prevent boredom. The main course is covered with a very traditional pure silver lid, and two waiters come over to count down Three Two One, and then uncover the lid. It can be said that it is very ceremonial! The sommelier is a handsome uncle with a ponytail. If you are hesitant, you can ask him if you can taste it before making a decision. The next morning I ran along the lake in the early morning, the moist air paired with the castle sunrise, it was really charming. The only regret is that I didn't have the opportunity to fish and ride a horse here. If I have the chance, I really want to stay for a week, and by the way, I can take a level in equestrianism (dreaming)...
