Belleek Castle

Nestled within majestic woodlands, this tranquil Irish castle on the banks of the River Moy in rural Ballina offers a truly serene escape for up to 26 guests. The scent of ancient Norway spruce and Scots pine draws you into the moment, making it easy to forget how conveniently located you are - just a short drive from the airport and from County Mayo’s top attractions along the coastal Wild Atlantic Way.

Striking neo-Gothic castle stonework gives way to plush, elegant interiors, where historic charm meets modern comforts, offering discerning guests the ultimate indulgence. The medieval Great Hall’s distinct interior and atmosphere conjure historic intrigue, while the castle’s bar - with its 17th-century solid oak baulks salvaged from the shipwreck of the Spanish Armada - invites guests to take a cosy seat with a signature cocktail.

An Exciting Castle Experience

From the original suits of armour at various turns to the 13th-century Norman fireplace to imperial statement bedheads, there’s so much to discover and admire here. Well placed for exploration of Mayo’s spellbinding landscape, laced with culture and history, Belleek is an ideal countryside escape or romantic weekend break on the West Irish Coast.
