    Tbh, had a really nice stay for two nights definitely worth a visit. The location was stunning and magnificent, for example, Cong Mini Golf Club was just a short walk away from the hotel. Set in 15 minutes' walk to downtown, and the staff were absolutely excellent and efficient. Excellent restaurant served vegetarian specialties...

The staff are friendly and highly professional, ensuring a truly exceptional stay. The rooms are spacious, beautiful, and air-conditioned, which was a pleasant surprise. The food at the restaurant was amazing, with interesting dishes cooked by the talented chef at the Cottage. it was the best hotel experience I've had in Ireland. The grounds are stunning and the staff are excellent.

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    The staff were amazing and made us feel right at home. They were friendly, helpful, and had a great sense of humour. The views and walks around the hotel were stunning, and the boat ride was made extra special by the historical information provided by the captain. The location of the hotel was wonderful, and the breakfast staff, especially Marcus, went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.

    Nothing all excellent.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful hotel located by a stunning lake. The restaurant had a cozy and elegant atmosphere, and the food was exceptional with a subtle attention to detail and flavor. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. The grounds of the hotel were magnificent, with a picturesque walled garden that felt like a journey back in time.

    There were some issues with the service during dinner, such as a delay in receiving food and a lack of communication about menu options.
