This was our third stay here, and it was just as enjoyable as ever. This time the hotel was very quiet, which made for a really relaxing and peaceful atmosphere.
The newly renovated décor looks fantastic and gives the place a fresh, modern feel. Our room was spacious with plenty of room to relax, and the views were lovely.
The food was excellent throughout our stay — breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all delicious and freshly cooked to order. The staff were also wonderful: friendly, welcoming, and always happy to chat or help in any way they could. A special mention to the lovely Kerry lady at breakfast (I’m sorry I can’t remember her name!) who really stood out for her warmth and friendliness.
We would definitely stay here again when visiting family
