Local tip
Knappogue is in a remote location so make sure you have a driver if you are going to enjoy the mead at the banquet.

Knappogue Castle is a beautiful 15th century castle located in Quin, Co. Clare. It hosts medieval banquet dinners between April and October, and guests can visit the castle daily between May and August. Its walled gardens are a magical setting on a lovely summer's day and have been carefully restored in Victorian style.

Knappogue's elegant State-Room Apartment may be hired on a self-catering basis. Read more about the State-Room Apartment.

Knappogue Castle was built in the mid-15th century by Sean MacNamara. It was restored by its American owners in the late 1900s in collaboration with Shannon Development, who have since bought the castle with the intention of preserving it as a fantastic example of a medieval tower house.

Knappogue is an ideal location to host an exclusive castle wedding reception.

The Medieval Banquets hosted in the castle allow visitors to partake in a great night's entertainment. Learn more about Knappogue Castle Medieval Banquets.
