@shadesofbrenn: Recently, I was fortunate enough to stay at the beautiful Clontarf Castle in the heart of Dublin. A stunning boutique hotel with centuries of history that blends a medieval past with modern luxury. @Clontarf Castle Hotel The original castle dates back to 1172 and was a key stronghold for the Knights Templar and sits right on the grounds of the famous Battle of Clontarf, where the High King of Ireland defeated the Vikings in 1014. Walking through the historic walls really did feel like stepping back in time. It was such a surreal experience. If you’re planning a trip to Ireland, skip the boring, standard hotel and experience something really cool and unique. Whether you’re a history nerd or a fantasy lover like myself, I can’t recommend this place enough! I mean let’s be honest, what’s a trip to Ireland if you don’t stay at a medieval castle?? It feels like a total escape from the modern world. Only 2 miles from the Dublin city center, a 10 minute walk to sea, and super easy to get to from the airport! Mention my name when booking and you may get a nice little treat! Head to the Linktree in my bio for more info. 🏰⚔️ #dublin #ireland #irelandhotels #medieval #castlehotel
