財産 — Cabra Castle Hotel
Cabra Castle is a converted 19th-century Gothic-revival castle set on acres of woodland and lake, with turrets, stone walls, and a grand staircase that feels more country-house party than museum. The lobby mixes dark wood, open fires, and faded chintz, giving it a lived-in, slightly eccentric charm. It suits couples who want a dramatic backdrop for a romantic night away, or families who like the idea of sleeping in a castle without the stiff formality. Expect good-value rooms, a decent restaurant, and the sort of quiet where you hear the gravel crunch under cars pulling in.
Cavanの歴史
Cavan town began as a medieval market settlement under the O'Reilly chieftains, with a charter dating to the 13th century. Its architecture is low-rise and functional, with a few Georgian terraces and a Catholic cathedral (1870s) that dominates the skyline. The town grew modestly around linen, brewing, and agriculture, and today feels like a quiet service centre for the surrounding drumlin countryside. Contemporary Cavan retains a strong local identity—small, unhurried, and increasingly known for angling on Lough Oughter and as a base for exploring the Cavan Burren's prehistoric stone monuments.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Cabra Castle Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (4th floor or above) due to the potential for street noise from the nearby main road.

Additionally, the views of the surrounding countryside from the upper floors are likely to be more scenic.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd) as they may be more prone to noise from the street and could be subject to noise from the service entrance, which is likely to be situated near the rear of the hotel.
Best views

Your arrival at Cabra Castle Hotel

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →回り回る
Cavan Town (Bus Station, Farnham Street) → Church View B&B (stop: The Cathedral)
💡 Pays with Leap Card or exact change — the driver can’t give change. Get off at the Cathedral stop, then walk 2 minutes up Hillview Road. It’s really bus no. C5 only; the C4 goes a different route.
Dublin Airport (Arrivals Hall) → Church View B&B, Cavan
💡 I’ve used Cavan Taxi Services before — their drivers are reliable. Book 24 hours ahead for a fixed €120 fare; walk-up can hit €150. They’ll meet you airside with a name board.
Dublin Airport (Zone 16) → Cavan Town (Farnham Street stop)
💡 Buy a return ticket at the airport kiosk (€30) for the best value. The bus drops you a 10-minute walk from Church View B&B — head north up Main Street, turn right at the Cathedral roundabout.
Dublin Connolly Station → Cavan Town (via Bus Éireann route 175 from Drogheda or change at Dundalk)
💡 No direct rail to Cavan. Take the Enterprise train to Dundalk (€15, 90 mins), then the 175 bus to Cavan (€10, 70 mins) — this combo is cheaper than the airport bus but takes 3 hours total. Best to avoid if you have luggage.

Cavanのトップ観光スポット
💡 The park's Sensory Garden, near the Bandstand, is a quiet spot with fragrant herbs and a small water feature—good for a break from the town centre. Free parking on Church Street.
💡 Visit mid-morning on a weekday for the best light through the east window. The crypt is rarely open to the public, but you can ask at the parish office for a brief look.
💡 The best views are from the southern edge of the lake, accessible from the R196 road—park at the small lay-by near the sign for 'Lough Oughter Viewpoint'. No facilities, so bring water and a map.
💡 The Red Trail is the shortest (1.5 km) and passes the most tombs. Bring good shoes—the limestone is slippery after rain. No parking fee, and dogs are allowed on leads.
💡 Admission is €5 for adults, but the gardens and Peace Garden are free to wander. Check their website for free family days, which happen about four times a year.
