I was brought here by my daughter for afternoon tea , it was very quiet and the wow factor was audible as we entered the Hotel. We were seated straight away and given menus , the lad that served us was very nice and we didn't have to wait long for the afternoon tea to arrive , 2pots of tea later and only crumbs left from sandwiches cakes and scones, delish. I'd go again .

I had the pleasure along with my family of having our daughter's wedding here. It was a wonderful experience due mailnly to the friendlyness and hopitality of the hotel staff and management. They just could not do enough for us. Nothing was impossible for them and it made our stay all the more enjoyable. The food was very good and pleanty of it. The main function room was so nice and warm with great ambience. The guest rooms were all so well kept and maintained throughout our 3 day stay. The Christmas tree was a wonderful feature and helped create a lovely feeling. We were so glad to have chosen this hotel but to be honest from past experiences there it was what we really expected. We certainly will rteturn again soon but not with all the entourage !!!!

Nestled in what seems like a high end horse ranch, this estate gives you the feeling you own & LIVE on a horse ranch but without any of the duties. Beautiful landscaping everywhere and the views of the Irish rolling hills seems to transport you back in another era.

We love this place and hope to return as soon as possible.

The Lyrath Estate is a pretty impressive hotel when you enter. The foyer is beautiful and maintains a connection with bygone eras, albeit a little mixed in its approach.

We stayed here for 1 night only on a stopover to elsewhere. We were met with pleasure at reception and the hotel was nice and warm on a rather miserable evening. Our room was really nice also, probably somewhere between 4 star and 5 star quality. Couldn't find fault with it. Bathroom was really nice actually with separate shower and bath.

We had food in the really cosy bar area. However this is where we encountered some minor issues. The service was pleasant and timely. But neither of the two orders were fulfilled correctly and while i accepted mine, my husband had to send his back and he could not eat what was delivered. So that was dissappointing in a 5-star hotel. Althought the staff were very apologetic... would have been nice to have been offered a coffee or something to make up for it and improve our impression.

But back to our cosy room and we were happy. Unfortunately the experience for breakfast the next morning again was not at the level you'd expect. Understandably it was quiet as it was a Monday morning in November and so the hot counter was not filled and you ordered directly. I was thrilled with that actually as you are guaranteed fresh food. But unfortunately again the order came back incorrectly. Just a small thing but again leaves an impression. We were met by a pretty unfriendly individual for breakfast overall (looked like a manager) although the waiter was extremely pleasant and helpful. So we bypassed the manager where possible when ordering.

Very helpful staff on reception when checking out, although nobody could be found to bring our car around at the time (it was raining heavily). Again.. the small things.

I would like to stay here again to gain another experience to see if we were unlucky on a quiet sunday night/monday morning... but then again, should that matter to the customer?
