Wonderful stay
The staff were so friendly and attentive. We adored the sea view room, perfect size, massive, comfortable bed and everything you need - a fridge, and wine cooked, tea, coffee etc. breakfast was delicious and had lots of options. The spa was lovely - only negative of the whole trip was the sauna was not hot enough. But it won’t put us off going back :)

Amazing Weekend Break
It was our first time in the part of Ireland and we had a wonderful stay, we really couldn't have asked for more. Unfortunately we missed the option of getting a sea view but I believe we could have selected this if we spotted the follow up email but apart from the we had a stay that will live long in our memory.
