Wow! What a fabulous adventure, @PA Mom-mom ! One I'm sure you'll never forget. Catherine is their daughter. Thanks for sharing fascinating details of your memorable visit.

@Oznell To tell you the truth, we were on a bicycle study tour at the time, and our interests were food, shelter, and credits toward our final grades. That was in the '70s. I did return a few years later with my DH.

I loved Ireland on my one trip there as a teenager, @PA Mom-mom . The gardens, wow!

What elegance, this is my taste and there is much about this castle I love and wouldn't change! The furnishings are exquisite as is all the art work. I am impressed. The gardens are spectacular also, it must be so peaceful to walk through them. Sign me up for at stay!!!!!

Far be it for me to knit-pick about a castle. I'll take it as is.

Definitely not my style but it is still beautiful and was fun to take a peak inside. The grounds are stunning!!!!! Thanks so much for finding, and posting, these homes (or castles .... LOL)!!!

I'm so happy they found a way to hold onto this. It would be a "crying shame" to have to let it go. The video was very inspiring. What a beautiful place to live. What memories to pass on to children and grandchildren. Thanks for posting the video, too.

Beautiful castle, beautiful grounds and actually somewhat 'homey' inside, which has to be a minor miracle. Many lovely elements and gracious, appealing rooms. Interestingly enough, though, as much as one might appreciate something like this from afar or as a visitor, I don't think I'd want to call it home. As nice a job as they've done to keep it looking like an actual home rather than a show place, perhaps it's still all just a bit overwhelming for me.

@Oznell -

That was really interesting.

It looked like that wonderful harp had no strings. I wonder if it was just for decoration.
