Kilbrittain Castle, was built by Mahon, king of Rathleann and a grandson of Brian Boru (from whom the O'Briens are descended) in 1035. It is located on the southern tip of Ireland in County Cork in a beautiful, quiet, serene setting.
We stayed at Kilbrittain Castle for an evening in 1999 and thoroughly enjoyed our evening and the dinner recommendations made by Mr. O'Brien.
Today the Castle is a Bread and Breakfast Inn owned by Cahill-O'Brien family. For more information on accomodations at Kilbrittain contact the Irish Tourist Board. |
