This is a very old hotel, and that brings its own charm, but it also brings some discomfort relative to modern buildings. The pub served decent food.

We had a fantastic weekend with you The lodge was quiet and pleasant. The hotel was busy both evenings with a wedding and after(hurling?) match but bar and waiting staff were coping admirably and had time for us. The food both evening and breakfast were first class.
