When deciding on a day out last Sunday my wife spotted a post regarding the Pointer Setter Dog Show at Ballykealey Manor Hotel and being canine enthusiasts we decided to go along.

Ballykealey country house looks so inviting, the setting so lovely in the midst of beautiful trees and wide expanses of grassland.

A number of us visited there for Sunday lunch recently as we understood that it had recently re-opened for business. On this note,... More

My husband has an ongoing illness, and unfortunatly, he became unwell... More

My boyfriend and myself stayed in this hotel last year for a romantic weekend. I found everything about it great. The food was amazing. So much so that we've returned last Sunday for the lunch. It has beautiful grounds, which are ideal for a romantic walk. The service was great too. The gentleman who owns the hotel was very friendly... More
