HISTORY OF BALLYNAHINCH CASTLE - the setting is superb and its history is colourful
Ballynahinch Castle is a former Irish country house and estate, built on the site of a former castle, which is now a luxury hotel set in a private 700-acre (2.8 km2) estate between Recess and Clifden on the R341 in Connemara, Co Galway. The castle lies on the edge of Ballynahinch Lake and Ballynahinch River and is directly overlooked by Ben Lettery 557 metres (1,827 ft), one of the Twelve Bens mountain range.
Small castle built on Ballynahinch Lake by Donal O'Flaherty, husband of Grace O'Malley (Grainneuaile) in 1546, after Donal's death Grace took his place as head of the clan. Her life as a pirate is well known and the Pirate Queen is steeped in history and legend. One of the former residents of Ballynahinch Castle was Richard Martin (Humanity Dick 1754-1834), founder of the Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and Member of Parliament for County Galway. Another owner was the Maharaja Jam Sahib of Nawanager ('Ranji'). Ranji decided to purchase the house, estate and its salmon and sea-trout fisheries from the Berridge Family in 1924.

One of Seamus Heaneys,finest poems is 'Ballynahinch Lake' from which the phrase 'captivating brightness' inspired by Ballynahinch and the surrounding landscape and published by the hotel in 2008. Heaney and his wife pause to look at the view of Ben Letterry one of the Twelve Ben mountain range rearing up above the stretch of water beside the hotel 'And the utter mountain mirrored in the lake, entered us like a wedge knocked sweetly home. Into core timber'. Click on the youtube link to view Seamus Heaney https://youtu.be/5KTBs8RoeEg
