Where was Christmas at Castle Hart filmed? Guide to ALL the Locations

The establishing shots of the lovely village in Ireland, where the Bennett sisters planned to spend Christmas, were filmed in Kinvara in Galway Bay.

The bed and breakfast exterior is the Connollys Pub.

The formidable Dunguaire Castle, considered one of the most visited and photographed medieval strongholds in the West of Ireland, is located in this town.

Also, the scenic round tower of the 16th-century Doonagore castle appears briefly at the beginning of the movie, standing above the village of Doolin and the Galway Bay.

Castle Hart was filmed at Dromoland Castle, the ancestral home of the descendants of Brian Boru, whose famous O’Brien clan lineage dates back 1,000 years to one of the last High Kings of Ireland.

Located on the outskirts of Ennis, this splendid 5-star luxury hotel stands today as it has been there since the early 19th-century. The medieval origins of the fortress can be traced back to the 15th and 16th centuries.

In real life, you can stay in a double room at this 450-acre estate for about US$439 per night.

The Lanighan's of Glaslough pub exterior is actually the Knox's Pub in Ennis in County Clare.

This small city, inhabited by little more than 25,000 friendly souls, is proud of its vibrant culture.

The human scale of its narrow, picturesque streets and the proximity to the wondrous landscapes such as the Burren or the Cliffs of Moher makes Ennis the ideal location to set the movie.

The interior of Clara's pub, where the girls meet Aiden Hart, the Earl of Glaslough, is the Poet's Corner Bar at 58-60 O'Connell Street, also in Ennis.

Located at the Old Ground Hotel, this cozy and popular meeting place is an Ennis institution where you can listen to traditional music while enjoying a pint or a hot Irish whiskey.

The scenes at the Christmas market were filmed at Bunratty Folk Park.

The village features over 30 buildings recreating brightly colored shops and rural farmhouses as they would have been in the 19th-century.

According to the local press, the movie also filmed scenes at Lough Cutra Castle, set in a dramatic location overlooking its own lake in Galway.

In the film, this location plays three different roles. At first, it appears as the suite room where the girls are staying at Castle Hart.

Also, Lough Cutra Castle is the residence of the Duchess and later on, this Gothic revival manor appears as the household of Baron Kilcullen, who offers himself to play the piano at the gala.

Built in the late 18th-century, the castle can be rented out for private events such as weddings, corporate parties, and gala dinners.

The craftsman's thatched roof cottage is the Shannon Farmhouse also at Bunratty Folk Park, which originally stood on the site of the main runway of the Shannon Airport.

The chapel that Aiden is trying to restore is the Ardcroney Church.

Originally erected in Ardcroney, County Tipperary, the temple was moved stone by stone from there to Bunratty.

The annual tree lighting event takes place outside the P. MacNamara and Son, a restaurant also located in the picturesque Bunratty village.

The Clare Champion newspaper reported that 12 children from the Clare-based Dance Attack Stage Academy performed in several scenes of the movie, along with some local extras.

The dramatic scenery of the horseback riding sequence was filmed at the magnificent Cliffs of Moher, one of the island's most famous landmarks.

The cliffs form a colossal 509 feet (155 meters) wall for about nine miles (14 kilometers) on the west coast of the country.

Ireland and the Cliffs of Moher were also the perfect backdrops for Hallmark's 2021 Spring Fling As Luck Would Have It, set in the fictional town of Kilabbey.

Brooke and Aiden also visit the iconic Bunratty Castle, a large 15th-century tower house located between Limerick and Ennis.

The exterior of the restaurant where the Duchess invites Margot for lunch and she is introduced to the Marquess of Castlevania Castleblayney is the 5-star hotel The Shelbourne in Dublin.
