Located in the quiet fishing village of Balbriggan, The Bracken Court Hotel is a four-star lodging that welcomes guests to heritage sites, a busy harbour, and a beach overlooking the Irish sea. The hotel resides about an hour’s drive from both Dublin and Belfast, while local attractions include the Ardgillan castle and its Victorian gardens, or the on-site golf course. Visitors are invited to enjoy their stay in spacious deluxe rooms boasting a bright atmosphere and kitted out with plasma screen TVs, Wi-Fi and marble bathrooms. A two-course dinner with a bottle of wine can be enjoyed on one evening at Jack Doyle’s Bar to the tune of regular live music at weekends. Mornings can start with a full Irish breakfast per person.
