We went yesterday evening for the trail of lights experience and what an experience it was. My little boy loved it and we left with a little magic of Christmas. Santa was amazing and very well done. The characters around the place were fantastic and the lights were amazing. Thanks so much for what brightened our spirits well done to all

I love this place. It is peaceful, beautiful, interesting and very well done! It has so much Irish culture and history. Really a must see for any visitor to this area. We also did the banquet. Very personable. We felt like we were among friends. They did such a great job We had issues with our tickets and two employees, Lily and Fiona helped us out with such kindness and help! They literally saved our visit. They wanted to help us more than anything else and we felt that. Thank you to them for showing how good Irish are, and thanks to Bunratty for keeping this culture alive

This was a return trip after a visit in 2015 and it was great fun - again. We love the castle and folk park - and, yes, even the little fairy village. The gardens weren't full bloom yet but the wisteria was gorgeous. Thank you!

Not crowded, you walk through historic village where there’s something for everyone. Ancient castle to explore, craftsmen’s cottages, shopping, petting zoo, playground. Staff and costumed guides very helpful. I was disappointed that mansion, one of the main spots, was not open. Flowers and botanical diversity amazing. A delightful fairy trail. A few dining options. Nice way to spend day for anyone.

We visited Bunratty Castle and folk park today. We had not been for a few years and again I can say we thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. The staff are amazing. Helpful, and so informative, especially in the town. We absolutely loved it. We had lunch and porter cake in the tea rooms and the food was excellent. Thank you to all for making our experience memorable yet again. We look forward to our return. We are blessed to have this fabulous amenity in Ireland. ❤️

Great half day. Castle cool lot to see. Grounds 20 houses: blacksmith shop, kitchen, typical house, thatched houses. Like Colonual Williamsburg.

The park is a wonderful and easily walkable experience inn Shannon. You get a taste of old Ireland. It is calm and peaceful there and a fun (but chill) experience. They have a couple of shops and a small place to eat. They have a number of animals you get to see and is definitely a fun place to bring the kids. They also had a gentleman playing old Irish songs on the violin. Was a great time.

Large free car park. Bought tickets at the entry inside through the gift shop, also cafe. Would advise to go early before the coach tours arrive, purely as the castle has narrow, steep stair ways & it got extremely congested as the tours moved around. The castle is a good medieval example of Irish history. Good restoration has taken place, with exhibits in each room. Its a tall, narrow castle, so lots of steep stair ways. From the castle its a short walk to the country folk park - clearly marked &b easy to follow map. The folk park covers all aspects of rural life in Ireland - each house/structure has been restored with original features & shows how life was. Paths are easy to follow. There is access to food/drink & toilets within the park area.

We visited the folk park a castle and spent hours here taking in the great atmosphere and talking to the ‘locals’ in their houses, the blacksmith was very friendly and we had a great chat, the castle itself is beautiful with lots and lots of hidey holes for you to explore, there’s tea rooms and even a bar! Kids play park and animals. It’s a brilliant place for all ages

What a fantastic place. We really enjoyed our day here. The whole park is really cool. The castle tour was great and the little village part with the guy playing music on the street. The pint of stout was creamy as anything in the bar and went down a treat with a toastie. We absolutely loved this place it was our favourite part of our holiday and we will 100% be back in the future. 10/10
