The castles are most stunning Beautiful castles that I've ever' seen. Impressive i enjoy the video. Thanks

[@gotraveleurope]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@capasso_martina]

we visited Burnatty Castle back in August of this year. It was a really nice place for a family trip. We enjoyed the visit at the castle and the village was also super interesting with loads of cottages from different times in Ireland, from the 1700's all the way to modern Ireland.

The O'Briens were like the equivalent to the Campbell's in Scotland ...treacherous .

I've been to all of them except Ashford. Glad you included Cahir castle... very underrated.

True.

My people were from Donluce Castle on the northern shore on the cliffs overlooking the North Sea. It's ruins now but looked like it was awesome in it's day.

One of the castles mentioned fell into "despair." I think the word she might have been going for was "disrepair."

Thanks for the comments, I will try a better accent in future. Thank you for watching!

[@neosquirrel]

There were a number of mispronunciations for the simplest of words. Ireland sounded like “island” and despair sounded like “dispear”. Again, it felt very AI narrated.

[@roseogrady8785]

So enjoyed my visit there and the Village of times gone by... Also Dirty Nelly's...My Mother (Irish loved it).

[@gotraveleurope]

[@richardhall5489]

If you get the chance tio visit Trim there's a statue of Duke of Wellington. It seems to be totally incongruous when you first see it (like it belongs in an English city) but there are good historical reasons for its prescence ..or maybe bad reasons depending on who you listen to...or just, you know...reasons. ;)

[@joprocter4573]

Wellington ancestry was Ireland and queen Elizabeth 11 Queen mother descendant of how Scots n Irish were same family

[@gotraveleurope]

Thank you Richard for the comment, I visited Trim Castle last summer and I did not know that. Thank you for sharing!

Richard Wellington was ansestor of QE11mum down to last king of Tara.. Was any connection mentioned there

[@didntlistendad]

Most unfortunate choice of intonation by narrator. Very distracting.

[@gotraveleurope]

Thanks for the comments, I will work on a better accent in future. Thank you for watching!

[@neosquirrel]

I feel like it’s AI from its audio trimming and the fact a lot of the narration repeats phrases like “wealthy owners”. ChatGPT has exploded in use lately.

[@ConnbineHarvester]

The Castle Shopping Center in Swords County Dublin has a pretty decent Chinese restaurant.

[@gotraveleurope]

Thanks for the comment. I'll be sure to check it out

[@ConnbineHarvester]

@@gotraveleurope I mean Swords Castle is around 200 meters up the road from there, and Swords has a Round Tower and Clock Tower and then Malahide Castle is like 5 mins drive away from Swords but none of those has curry or barbeque sauce.

Kilkenny was damage severely during Cronwells invasion of Ireland in 1650

[@gotraveleurope]

Thank you John for extra info!

[@ATLmodK]

Kilkenny was built in the medieval time, but inside it looks very Victorian to me,

[@jgog59]

@@ATLmodK many of the occupants of the castle, redesigned them adding windows elaborate interiors that’s why you get the Victorian feeling within the castle they were remodeled to suit the living standards of Victorian times

[@lightofthejul]

The castles and Irish history are beyond fascinating , beautiful and unique but the narrator seems either to be computer assisted or has a speech impediment ! They really do need to get better people to narrate such amazing places !

[@gotraveleurope]

Thanks for the comment. I am planning to redo the voice over to fix it up. Thanks

[@eoinoceallaigh2472]

the pronunciation of Cahir mad me die a little inside but not bad, surprised that the Rock of Cashel wasn't there
