I haven’t even checked in yet and the staff has been so helpful! I am traveling to Monaghan to attend the Gathering event there next weekend. I am so excited to possibly meet family members since I have been tracing my family to Ireland now for 5 years and have been hitting the proverbial brick wall on all four grandparents’... More

The staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. The food was very good and the service was excellent. We had breakfast served in our room and it arrived on time and was piping hot and was a very pleasant experience. Although I didn't get a chance to use the Spa, it looked great and I will try it next time.... More

Wow, what can I say.... Just back from a one night stay here with a friend. From the minute we drove in the driveway to when we left, everything was no problem to any member of staff. From booking with Mick a few weeks back to check out I was just delighted to see a hotel so brilliantly ran! Any... More

Stayed for three nights on B&B and one dinner basis. Very pleased, room was clean and quite large. Breakfast could be as big or as small as you liked it, great choice. Dinner is now served in the bar area for some reason, but was not a problem. Friendly knowledgable staff and a good atmosphere. Will stay here again.

Room as comfortable and clean, the bathroom was spotless and well lit up. We ate in the bar and it was very enjoyable. The breakfast in the morning was excellent and the restaurant staff... More

My husband and I ate here with our young son on May Day Bank Holiday Monday. We live quite close by but have never been here before. We ate in the bar, it was fairly busy but not overwhelmingly so. The menus are actually huge (physically so!) but also had a wide choice of food too. We ordered a bottle... More
