There’s a touch of Irish magic at Ballynahinch Castle, a tranquil, 48-guestroom retreat located in the Connemara region of County Galway. The estate’s 700 wooded acres are blanketed in rolling hills, a freshwater lake, rivers, and trickling streams teeming with salmon and trout. Go hiking and fly fishing, take a boat tour, or cycle along the scenic coast. Local masons restored the original stone walls around the enchanting Walled Garden, which produces fresh fruits and vegetables for the hotel’s kitchens.
