Show Notes
Robert Bowe is one of the top guest experience managers at Ashford Castle in Western Ireland. Ashford may be an 800 year old castle, but it's also a modern day icon in the world of luxury travel.
Driving up to the castle, you'll feel like you're in Camelot - you'll first see the lush green grounds set next to the ocean. Then you'll discover the history, the secret passageways, and the fine silks and antiques throughout the property. It sounds like it could be stuffy - but it's not. The service comes from the heart and makes it feel like coming home.
Robert is your typical Irishman, with loads of great stories to tell (really, we could have gone on for hours!) and an amazing charm. We discuss little known stories about the castle, what keeps guests coming back year after year, and a little celebrity gossip too!
