"Lovely hotel but the complimentary water near the lift was horrible. Had to pay €22 euro for car parking which we didn’t know about. Would be better if included in the pricing. Other than that was a pleasant stay."

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is a true old world charm property set in a very peaceful and serene environment. The property is well maintained and the rooms are very comfortable. The bed especially is very comfortable. The food and service is also excellent even though it is very full at weekends as it is a popular wedding and event property. There is a true commitment to quality and sincere warmth in both staff and housekeeping."
