Suite Dreams: Ireland's Ashford Castle Offers VIP Royal Suite Package
Over the years, Ashford Castle has hosted numerous world leaders and political figures, including George V of Britain and President Ronald Reagan.
With the recent visit of Queen Elizabeth (the first visit to Ireland in a century by a British monarch) and President Barack Obama's upcoming visit to the Emerald Isle, Ashford Castle has created two packages in their honor, complete with helicopter rides, a stay in the Presidential Suite and lessons in the sport of kings -- falconry.
The Royal Package includes first-class train from Dublin to Claremorris, limousine transfer from Claremorris to Ashford Castle, two nights' accommodation in the Royal Suite, clay shooting for two, falconry lesson for two, historical walk on the grounds with local historian Mick Maye, and dinner on both nights at George V Dining Room. Based on double occupancy, this package is priced at 1,025 euros ($1,462) per person.
The Presidential Package features helicopter transfer from anywhere in Ireland to the Ashford Castle helipad; two nights' accommodation in the Presidential Suite; private dinner in room 224, replicating the scene and the menu of Reagan's visit; dinnertime entertainment by resident harpist Annette Griffin; and a guided walk with local historian Mick Maye along the same route taken by Reagan. Based on double occupancy, this package is priced at 2,175 euros ($3,103) per person. For more information, call 800-346-7007 or visit www.ashford.ie.
