Solis Lough Eske Castle is idyllically located in Northwestern Ireland in County Donegal. As the northernmost county in the Republic of Ireland, County Donegal shares a border with Northern Ireland and with the Republic of Ireland. The area is well known for its sandy beaches, rugged mountains, access to fishing, and a deep indented coastline that formed natural loughs.County Donegal by the very nature of its location coupled with limited rail, air, and road access have allowed it to maintain a unique identity, culture and charm. The climate is greatly influenced by the Gulf Stream and is pleasantly mild and temperate. These attributes along with the natural beauty of the area will provide visitors with an authentic Irish Experience in an area of unparalleled beauty.Donegal is the nearest town and sits at the mouth of Donegal Bay and at the foot of the Bluestack Mountains. Donegal (?Fort of Foreigners?) was founded in the 1400s by the O?Donnell Clan. The O?Donnell?s provided the main opposition to the English Colonization efforts from the 15th thru the 17th centuries. Lough Eske Castle sits outside the town of Donegal on the shores of Lough Eske. The picturesque lough is approximately three miles long, one mile wide and 102 feet deep. The lake boasts twelve islands ?the largest of which the O?Donnell?s utilized as a prison during their reign! Exceptional fishing is available on Lough Eske with Brown Trout, Salmon and Sea Trout plentiful. In the month of November, Lough Eske is one of only four lakes in Ireland in which fisherman have the opportunity to fish for char.A castle has been located on the hotel site dating back as far as the 1400?s. The current castle was built in the 1860?s and severely damaged by fire in 1939. The castle, as a focal point of the hotel, will be completely renovated and enhanced to create the Lough Eske Castle.
