Malahide Dublin, Leinster +353 1 846 2184 / +353 1 846 3027 (Restaurant) http://www.malahidecastle.com/malahidecastle/

This private house and one-time fortress is located on 250 acres of lush park area, in the town by the sea. The interiors are done up beautifully, with portrait paintings of the Talbot family generations. Standing strong for about 800 years and almost oozing history, this old home has seen it all – wars, good times, and memories of the family it sheltered. Now, a major attraction, the main hall plays host to private celebrations and banquets, while guided tours in French, Spanish, Dutch, et al escort sight-seers around its premises. The admission is EUR6.50 for adults, EUR4 for children and EUR18 for a family. The restaurant is quite popular with the locals, who drop in for a hot breakfast of Baked Scones, with Homemade Jam and Cream. Tea rooms offer you self-service, while the five resident ghosts prowl around, looking to scare a vulnerable soul!
