Lovely old house with very friendly and engaging owner. Not sure it is quite a boutique hotel, and some of the descriptions eg beach bars, seemed a bit of a stretch. We pretty much had the place to ourselves and enjoyed a nice bottle of wine and nibbles on arrival as well as breakfast delivered to our suite every morning. Comfortable and quiet, and a nice walk to restaurants of Port Dover.

Buyer beware. Please be aware that the bathroom is not attached to the room itself and is expected to be shared with multiple rooms. The size of the room is not as listed. The amenities are not as listed. When we arrived we were taken aback at how little it resembles what was pictured and advertised. The person who greeted us made us sufficiently uncomfortable that we left even though they would not refund us for our stay which was prepaid.

I chose Clonmel as a surprise getaway for my husband and I. This was our first night away since becoming parents six years ago. Stakes were high, and I wanted to find something special we wouldn't usually do with kids in tow. Clonmel exceeded our expectations. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Craig, and we knew we were going to have a great experience. He offered us a bottle of wine and showed us around the castle with detail on the history and made us feel very comfortable in the space. The entire property is beautifully maintained. We took some time to explore the downtown, played mini golf before dinner, and visited the waterfall near the property. We inquired about the fire pit on the property. Craig took care of setting up and managing the fire throughout the evening. His stories were fantastic and made the whole experience very memorable. We will never forget this trip. In the morning, Lynnee and Craig prepared the most excellent breakfast, and we enjoyed coffee on the porch. Would highly recommend Clonmel for those seeking a unique and memorable stay.

What's not to like. We had a wonderful experience at Clonmel Castle. Lynnee was an exceptional host. The property was meticulously restored to a high standard in keeping with the era of the construction. Craig's culinary skills were definitely worthy of a 5 star rating. Very relaxing and inviting atmosphere and made you feel like you were at home. Highly recommended!
