10/10 Exceptional

This was such a lovely place to stay. The staff were welcoming and friendly. When our wedding photo shoot had to be relocated due to the weather the hotel accommodated us on the property and helped make our time special. This location has so many beautiful hidden gems. Make sure you tour the whole gardens around the property. This was a highlight of our two weeks in Ireland.

This hotel was expensive but lovely. The food was excellent. The staff very helpful. The only thing that wasn’t good was the lift didn’t function. The gardens were exquisite and this is a wedding venue.
