Review:
Blarney Castle is where the famous Blarney Stone is found in Cork, Ireland and is three to four hours from Dublin. Trains are available from Dublin to Cork regularly, and visitors should plan to spend half a day at the Blarney Castle and Gardens. Blarney Castle was constructed in 1446 by the King of Munster and remains standing for visitors to explore all year around. There is also a cave, lake, Rock Close gardens, and dungeons that can be visited. A café is available for light food and lunch items, and a coffee hut is located inside the castle entrance. Visitors over eight years climb up the tower and kiss the Blarney Stone for good luck! If the visitor is under eight years old their kiss will be at the discretion of an employee.
