The 5-Star Lough Eske Castle Hotel in Co Donegal has expanded its offering with the launch of 25 new guest suites.
Set within 43 acres of forested woodland, hugging the shores of Lough Eske, with a backdrop of the Blue Stack Mountains, the multi award-winning Lough Eske Castle, part of The Harcourt Collection, has elevated its offering of 5-star luxury with the introduction of ‘The Donegal Suites’.
Lough Eske Castle, Donegal’s only 5-star hotel, is renowned for its fairy-tale setting, award-winning service and luxurious, spacious rooms. The new Donegal Suites enhance this reputation further, providing guests with larger rooms that are perfect for special occasions, multigenerational stays, or an indulgent getaway. The design and colour palette of the new suites have been inspired by the stunning landscapes surrounding the hotel.
The suites each feature a bespoke Magee 1866 tweed, the result of a careful collaboration between fifth generation family business Magee 1866 and the hotel. The distinctive burnt orange and salt and pepper tweed originates from the firm’s ‘Eske Bunch’ collection, named after its weaving mill, situated on the banks of the River Eske, not far from the hotel, in Donegal town.
John Doherty, Creative Director of Harcourt Developments, says: “Our vision for The Donegal Suites was to create spaces that not only offer luxury but also a deep connection to the local landscape and culture. We’ve worked closely with Magee 1866 to incorporate their custom tweed, inspired by the colours and textures of Donegal, into the design of each suite. The result is a unique blend of comfort and authenticity that we believe will enhance the guest experience at Lough Eske Castle.”
Dónal Cox, General Manager at Lough Eske Castle, adds: “We’ve noticed increasing demand for suites that cater to multi-generational families and international visitors looking for a luxurious and authentic experience. The Donegal Suites have been designed to meet this demand, providing spacious and beautifully designed rooms that reflect the best of Donegal’s natural beauty and craftsmanship. We are proud to offer our guests a genuine taste of this wonderful region.”
