A Message from the Dysert O’Dea Castle Committee
Dear Clan Members,
Here is a message from the Dysert O’Dea Castle Committee.
“As a result of Covid 19 restrictions and a severe downturn in business, including the closing of Dysert O’Dea Castle in 2020 and 2021, free admission to the Castle for members of the O’Dea Clan Association has been withdrawn indefinitely, effective from 16 March 2021, by the Castle Committee. It is hoped that Dysert O’Dea Castle will reopen again in 2022.”
