Castletroy, a residential suburb of Limerick, has in recent decades seen a wide and rapid expansion in tandem with the growth of the city and the establishment of the local university. Indeed, the suburb has spread to absorb the villages of Annacotty and Monaleen. Guests staying in Castletroy enjoy the benefits of fine hotels, restaurants, bars, concerts and all the nightlife typically associated with a young, student population. The shopping centre includes specialty stores, a supermarket and a multi-screen cinema called Storm. Amateur and skilled golfers alike are welcome at Castletroy Golf Club's challenging but beautiful tree-lined parkland course, while indoor golf, with 18 putting greens and hi-tech simulators recreating some of the world's most exciting courses, is available at the UniGolf Club in the National Technology Park. One of the great visitor attractions of Castletroy is its proximity to Limerick, the historic but dynamic city where the Shannon river flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Arts and culture, entertainment and shopping, horse and greyhound racing, riding and golfing, fishing and river cruising are among Limerick's wide range of activities. Castletroy is also situated at the gateway to the wider River Shannon region, where there are lots of opportunities for sightseeing and outdoor sports.
