362042 3 Location 511189 Foulksrath Castle is a Youth Hostel just outside of Kilkenny City. It was very cheap, at the time 15 Euro a night. We thought it would be cool to stay in a castle. Its an old Norman Tower and really has a great atmosphere, supposedly haunted. For me it was special because it was built by the Purcell family.......my name. The rooms are mixed dormitory style and there is a common room, kitchen and showers. The owner was really nice and told us stories about the history of the castle. It does get a bit cold in there and can use a good cleaning. 2007-01-08T23:27:54-08:00 585105505 2005-09-01T17:00:00-07:00 0 -9223372036854775790 210817 3296227 362042 0 200083 0.0436884650215657 2005-08-30T17:00:00-07:00 Published 35.0 2007-01-09T05:45:55-08:00 93482 0
