Big changes. Can't walk into cafe anymore. You will be charged a fee for access. Staff try to justify it with poor excuses that you would use in the 90s. Even the group before me were shocked. Prices gone up also
Our tour guide Dylan was enthusiastic and made the experience so worth it, really amazing, and he is extremely good at his job, and flexible with giving tour guides and then you'd see him cleaning the cafe great work man xo
Lovely family day out. Story of the hall very interesting.
we were on the 16.00 tour our guide was brilliant, like being part of a live stage show, enjoyed every minute. She brought the history of Loftus Hall to life and involved all especially the children. My grandchildren want to go back at hallow'een.
Great tour. Would have liked more paranormal content.
Stunning building and grounds! so worth a visit if you have any interest in Irish history or things that go bump in the night! Recommend a guided tour as you get to see so much more of the property! One of my favourite attractions in Ireland's Ancient East!
Lots of history very well presented. Basic tour stays on the main floor. It was creepy and fun and educational. Our tour guide did a great job.
Great entertainment for the whole family! The family tour is very well done! 100% recommendation! Also Hook Head light house is only a 5 minute drive away, worth a visit too!
Fun day out for all ages. Lovely old house full of history and spooky legends
Such a great place to visit. Tour is very well done with great simple and easy to follow Social distancing. The tour was short given the condition of the building. The guide was relaxed funny and informative. Amazing scenic part of the country next stop hook lighthouse and Templetown.
As a definite member of the Irish society for scepticism!, I have to say that the tour was very well presented and made funny yet informative and interesting by tour guide Colm, whose knowledge is excellent, coupled with a laid back, relaxed creation of an air of anticipation ahead. If only I hadn't become Lady Anne on the way! I would like to try the paranormal longer visit at some stage. I highly recommend a trip. Staff in general quite friendly and helpful
Take a tour of Irelands most haunted house so I'm told.
I did the tour and I have to say it was great fun.
Tour guide was brilliant and delivered her story lines perfect which adds to the suspense of what might happen to you next!
And after to settle your nerves there is a coffee shop which serves food.
Last tour of the day 7-22-17.
Very small group. Sara was our tour guide. She was incredible. Very knowledgeable and engaging. She really liked what she was doing and was very good at it. Answered and asked lots of questions and shared her own personal accounts at Loftus Hall.
Highly recommend! 5+stars.
Scary beautiful.
But the driveway to this majestic building is incredibly scary and a little intimidating.
We were the first bus tour ever to be in Loftus Hall, and since we were out of season there were no other visitors there.
Inside, the Loftus Hall is indescribable, beautiful and you just get goosebumps.
Also, the Loftus Hall is also good for surprises, but they have to find out for themselves in the leadership, which also exists in German. :)
* Little hint, they will feel transported back into the history of the house as soon as they have crossed the threshold.
Personally, I could perceive the mind that haunts the building, and I suggest to anyone to just close your eyes and try to feel the vibrations.
The service was unbelievably good, the staff more than friendly, and the surroundings of the Loftus Hall beautiful and secluded.
Bit of a let down to be honest thought I was gonna be jump out of my skin but never happened, Gardens were great. I really wanted to see up stairs. Hope it doesn't end up a hotel.
Very disappointing with this house tour. Went there with friends to take the Halloween tour. It was very mediocre. The actors did there best with a very poor story line. It was very expensive for what they offered. They could have done so much to make it better. The best part of it was to get to see the beautiful staircase.
Our tour guide Mary was fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable of the home and its history. Shes a wonderful storyteller!! The house itself is amazing and definitely worth a stop! I'll definitely go back for one if the evening tours next time!!
Very interesting, doesn t really seem haunted at all, just run down and has a spooky story. The staircase is beautiful, almost worth the visit itself.
Very funny tour guide, great energy ... spooky place
Brilliant. Highly recommended. Great staff. Well organised. Day tours suitable for older children.
Not great, thought we could see around the house, all a bit fake
Tour was a lot of fun and my kids really enjoyed it. Dylan, the tour guide, did a great job. I hope more of the building is restored on our next visit.
Did the haunted house tour, was very good. The whole family enjoyed the experience. Did make me sad to see and smell the level of decay on the walls and ceiling.
A bit pricey for the small tour. House is in poor condition and lots of mold/mildew inside.
Great house. The actors are very good and scary :)). You can also have a chance to be part of the story and one of the characters wich is fun. Ticket is 13 /pp . Tours starts from 2 pm till 8 pm. No photo or video aloud . I think a tour during Halloween will be great !!
Lovely surroundings in the summer time. Scarier to visit in the winter. Ireland's most haunted house.
Great to see the house , and to imagine what it must have been like at it's best. Fantastic stairs, a d beautiful tiled floor . The guide very nice and made the tour interesting
Great place to visit, the walk down to the beach is amazing. We went to Hook Head afterwards which was breathtaking. There s so much to do in this part of the world. The stories from the tour were good fun and the staircase is amazing!
Brilliant tour, very scary and Colm the guide was amazingly brilliant at tell the story he made it great for young and old!
We did the night tour. Looking for a little ghost adventure. It was a little gimmicky but loads of fun. I wish we had learned more about the actual story behind the place but bc they were trying to scare us a bit it got lost. And they did separate us at one point and my 18 year old was on his own. He didnt mind but I did. Overall it was good but a long drive for a short visit as it was night time . I do plan on going again so we can see the light house and do a proper tour of loft hall.
Very disappointing. The tour isnt great most of the old house is dirty not scary. The guide didnt really tell us much about the history of the house and why it is supposed to be haunted. Wasnt value for money
The guide was fantastic..she made all seem real and scary...thank you
Brilliant Night, we did the paranormal investigation night tour. It lasts about 6 hours and we had an investigation in about 6 rooms. Wrap up warm as the building can get freezing, coffee and tea is provided but if I was to go again id bring some snacks. Brilliant night led by a brilliant team. No history of the building during the investigation so if your looking for a history tour this isnt the one. Definetly spooky, and certain rooms sent chills down my spine. Perfect Halloween Activity.
Nice day out there
Love this area
Sad to see it looking so rundown and even though it's for sale we were not allowed to take photos, disappointed
A fantastic family day out totaly enjoyed it.the toure guide was so into it he made it great i dont know his name sorry but he is outstanding.a total must place to go you wont be sorry trust me.my 10 year old loved it.
Exelent tour, great family day out, look out for Mary she's brill
My wife and i brought our two boys 6 and 10 in July. Despite the somewhat derelict but impressive house i became a little disheartened when we arrived as it looked completely disused. We arrived at opening and as i approached the car park to the rear i was relieved to see it was already half full. There is a lovely garden and the resturant had tasty food. We all enjoyed the tour even our 6 year old who was a little scared throughout but survived the hauntings. Go!
Great history and tour guides really entertain you with their stories.
Went for a Halloween paranormal investigation lockdown. Great event. Briny extra warm layer..
Delightful place to visit particularly around Halloween!
