Michael Jackson has spent almost £250,000 on a holiday in an Irish castle. The troubled singer has been staying at Luggala Castle, in County Wicklow, for the past three months, forking out a staggering £20,000 a week. The seven-bedroom retreat comes with private chefs, butlers and cleaners, and is set in a 1,500-acre country estate. Previous star guests have included actors Mel Gibson and Orlando Bloom. Jackson - who is alleged to still owe £25 million in legal fees following the child sex case he was acquitted of last year - has been holidaying with his three children, Prince Michael, nine, Paris, eight, and four-year-old Prince Michael II. Wicklow residents have spotted the 'Billie Jean' singer taking his children to the near-by village cinema and dining out in local restaurants. Earlier this year, it was reported that Jackson wanted to move to Ireland permanently, and even spent time house-hunting in County Cork. According to Californian psychic Randa Starr, the pop superstar has always been interested in Ireland because he is fascinated by fairies and leprechauns - a type of treasure hording elf associated with Irish mythology.Starr said at the time: "He once thought of Ireland as a spiritual place for his rebirth. He has a keen interest in fairies, myths and leprechauns which fit in with that."
