The team at Lough Eske Castle also launched the annual Christmas food appeal.  The Castle invites everyone to help support the local Society of St Vincent de Paul by bringing non-perishable food, such as tinned soups, pasta, and sauces, to feed local Donegal families in need during the festive period.

The turn-on of the Christmas lights at Lough Eske Castle sees the start of the festive season and events at the Castle, including Teddy Bear’s Afternoon Tea Parties throughout December and Festive Traditional Afternoon Tea served every day.
