Lovely common areas, wonderful staff, amazing Spa. However the room was disappointing. It is in desperate need of updating and a deep clean. We booked a king bed but got 2 singles pushed together which was uncomfortable. It would also would have been nice to have had spare pullows and blankets

The cleaning staff was excellent, as was the front desk, and restaurant staff. They got us in without hesitation, explained everything, kept us comfortable, and worked with us to get meals, even though we didn't know we needed a reservation for dinner. Super helpful and respectful staff. I loved the pumpkin carving contest. The beds were a little too firm, but everything overall was beautiful. the spa experience was also fun.

I’ll preface this with I am an American. The staff and restaurant and bed and location was amazing. That was about it. No wash rags for the bath. Shower door was broken. Drain cover was broken. Almost made the wife fall. Hot room. Not the best. All good though.

The property was in a quiet rural setting with the town of Dunboyne walking distance away. Really enjoyable and relaxing location. Note that there is a spa but no full size swimming pool on site. Dining options were very good and service was great. Looking forward to returning to this property.

Had such a fantastic stay here, after our flight was canceled and we struggled to find accommodations this place accepted us. We ended up staying here for 2 nights and it was peaceful and relaxing. Beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The exterior of the property and the grounds were well maintained. The staff took great care of us.
