7 Bedroom Place in Bansha

Welcome to Bansha Castle, one of Ireland's best kept secret get-aways. A former home of the Butlers of Ormonde, Bansha Castle is now yours to experience as a haven of rest and relaxation. This lovely old country house, dating from the 18th century, is set in private grounds with mature gardens, backed by the beautiful Glen of Aherlow and the famous Galtee mountains. Once owned by General Sir William Butler, the Butlers of Ormond crest is still evident on the facade of the Round Tower, highlighting the rich heritage of this unique residence. Don't feel like cooking every night? The owners occupy a completely separate wing to the main house and are usually available should any problems arise. They can give catering recommendations if required. Bansha Castle is a perfect location for historical and cultural pursuits. Bansha lies at the centre of the heritage trail; The Rock of Cashel, Holycross Abbey and the Medieval City of Kilkenny are all near by.
Activities: There is a variety of leisure activities on offer. Walking/Cycling - forest and mountain trails. Fishing (in season and weather dependent) is five minutes away on the River Suir, one of the best trout rivers in Europe. For golfers there are a selection of excellent courses within easy driving distance. Horse riding, swimming and tennis can all be arranged upon request.

Summary: Bansha Castle was the perfect setting to celebrate my 80th birthday with family and friends. The accommodation was elegant, comfortable, and homey, and the hosts, John and Teresa were more than welcoming. They arranged a night of music for us that was enjoyed by all and made for a very special birthday party, and also recommended an excellent caterer, Kay Ryan and her husband Shane, who provided tasty breakfasts and some delicious evening buffets for us. It was a week of celebration enjoyed by all.

Summary: Our family of 14 adults (ages 21 - 79) used Bansha Castle as "home base" while taking day trips (with bus and driver Mike contracted through John Cotter Buses) throughout Ireland, going to Galway, the Connemera region, Cliffs of Moher, Limerick, Ennis, Ring of Kerry, Cork/Cobh, Killarney, Waterford, Kilkenny, Kildare and Dublin. Nearly all were 1 - 2 hours away. There was also so much to see and do in Tipperary County itself!!!! Teresa and John were AMAZING hosts, working with me for months in advance on day trip logistics so that we maximized our time in Ireland. They also went above and beyond upon our arrival, coordinating massages one day in the castle, John being the photographer for a family photo shoot, and putting me in touch with a fabulous caterer (Barbara) who made and served two dinners in the castle. The castle is EXCEPTIONAL...7 BR/7BA, a fully stocked kitchen and a dining room seating 18 comfortably, to a massive living area with overstuffed couches and a snooker table, to a huge backyard and covered patio, and grounds and flowers meticulously maintained by John. The area restaurants (e.g. Mikey Ryan's, Chez Hans, The Junction, O'Neills Bistro) were all excellent!!!! And Nellie's Pub, a 5-minute walk away, was a family-favorite for a Guinness and watching the GAA national hurling semifinals!! Everything EXCEEDED our expectations!!! (Ask Teresa if you want our itinerary to help you plan your amazing trip!!!!) THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

Summary: Our family met at the Castle for a week long visit to Ireland to explore our family heritage. This was the perfect launching point for daily excursions to Cork. Limerick, Westport, Newport, Cashel, Chair and Kerry. The Castle is beautifully situated on lush lawns and hills, tucked off the main road and outfitted with a full kitchen, dining room, living room and snooker room. We gathered in the heated patio area in the mornings for coffee and enjoyed late night fires in the working fireplace with games and hot drinks. We hired out some of the meals with a local caterer who the host recommended for traditional Irish Breakfast, cold welcome dinner, continental breakfasts complete with fresher baked soda bread, scones, fruit and porridge and a last night’s meal of Guinness Stew, Cabbage and Bacon and roasted vegetable soup. Highly recommend using Kay and her family for meal prep when you stay in.

Summary: Twelve of us stayed in this lovely castle for two weeks. The older kids enjoyed the grounds for soccer, running, and ball tossing. There was lots of room indoors to put down play areas for the baby. We explored all over the south of Ireland and the location of Bansha allowed us to comfortably return home each day! The castle owners were welcoming and very good about answering any questions that we had.

Summary: This is a beautiful spacious castle. Everyone had their own bathroom/shower. There is a lot of relaxing space inside and a large covered patio area with heat lamps available to use outside. Great country setting and we were able to take many day trips to interesting sites in the area. Very friendly, accommodating couple that own the castle

Summary: Our family of 16 enjoyed 10 days at the castle. While Bansha is a small, somewhat remote location, it was the ideal jumping off spot for our travels (if you don’t mind a daily 1-2 hr drive). From here we visited Cork, Cliffs of Moher, Dublin, Bunratty Castle, Rock of Cashel, Galway, The Burren and Kilkenny. Everyone was able to “spread out” or get cozy with many relaxing spaces inside and outside the castle. Sleeping arrangements were ample (ages 7-78) and very comfortable. Access to a full kitchen, with nearby shops allowed us to get on the road early each day, and welcoming pubs and restaurants a short distance away offered the chance to sample local meals at night. Also, a catered dinner by Barbara Russell was a special treat one night. Highlights, aside from the usual stone-kissing and cliff-viewing included a sheep dog demonstration, horseback riding, snooker at the castle, photos on the beach in Connemara by Wonky Eye Photography, learning hurling in Kilkenny, and Mass and dinner in Cashel. So, when people ask “And why are you staying in Tipperary?” Now you know 🍀

Summary: Bansha Castle was the perfect place for our family trip! The property was beautiful and Theresa was great. We also had Barbara cook our dinner every night and all 16 of us loved everything. I would highly recommend this property.

Summary: Teresa and John were excellent hosts. Showed us round the property when we arrived. We were struck by how clean the property was, especially important during these difficult times. Very attentive to any needs or queries that arose during our stay, yet seamlessly invisible at other times! We felt we had total privacy. Property has everything we needed for our stay, two families. Not a huge amount to see or do in the area, especially at the minute, but we enjoyed some local walks.
