Ireland’s most stunning fishing lodge

Delphi Lodge was built in the 1830s by the Marquis of Sligo for hunting and fishing and was named after the valley’s alleged similarity to the home of the Oracle in Greece. It is surrounded by wild rivers, beautiful lakes, and some of the tallest mountains in Connemara. It has been visited over the years by many fishing enthusiasts and even royalty including King Edward VII and more recently Prince Charles. Delhi Lodge is not a hotel, has no room service, TVs, or a la carte menus but rightly claims to be the ultimate Connemara chill-out retreat.
