The standard rooms overlook either the courtyard or Cashel Hill behind the hotel.

The suites are the largest rooms, split level, with a step down from the bedroom to a sitting area. These rooms have the best view of the gardens. Top floor suites have sea views.
Connemara's hundreds of lakes, rivers and mountain land, as well as the island studded Cashel Bay, combine to provide the selection of sea food, including fresh lobsters, mussels, clams, scallops, salmon, mackerel, brill, turbot and trout. Choice meats and poultry also feature on our menu, including Connemara lamb, Irish beef, venison, quail and guinea fowl, complimented by a wide variety of fresh vegetables from the organic gardens.
These are then carefully cooked under the supervision of a skilled team of chefs and served in the welcoming dining room by Ray Doorley and his efficient, personable team. Cashel House's wine list is extensive and provides the perfect accompaniment.
A large conservatory extension enhances a well-appointed split-level dining room, which is overseen by members of the McEvilly family. You can choose to dine in the airy, bright conservatory or in the dining room, with its antique tables and numerous original works of art.
