    Can't recall anything to complain about.

    Great staff, very helpful. Lovely spacious room with a fantastic view from the balcony. It's old but stylish. Loved our stay for our 30th wedding anniversary. I would love to go back.

    How difficult is was to get there from the train. How hard it was to get a taxi back to the train. Perhaps a shuttle bus should be added to you hotel offerings to ease travel for those of us not driving.

    Dinner was delicious. I am a vegan and the vegan steak was delicious.

    I'm allergic to pepper and I'm on a special diet so the menu had little on it for me.

    Everything! We enjoyed the music in the Dungeon! That evening there was another band playing for a wedding. When I heard the music, I asked about it and was told they could seat us nearby enough that we could hear it. Both bands were great! My friend truly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The balcony was great! We could see the sea from it. It was very peaceful!

    This is a gorgeous place to stay, beautiful grounds and woodland walk behind. Rooms lovely, food and bars serving excellent selection, staff great. We stayed because it’s only half an hour to the airport and it’s a lovely alternative to Dublin - would recommend if catching flights.

    Windows are quite old, I would suggest checking better before accepting the rooms. Also, more proactivity from the staff would work better.

    Getting there was a bit of a problem. They should have some kind of a shuttle. If you don't have a vehicle. Taxis are difficult to get. We walked 15 minutes with our luggage through town to the taxi stand on the way there and waited a long time until one finally. We waited an hour for a taxi to pick us up again to take us to the train station.

    I had a nice room with a view. The amenities were lovely. They had a nice hot tub and pool. Dinner in their dining room was very nice.

    I have difficulty with steps. This wasn’t a deal breaker, but the main entrance had half a dozen quite steep steps. Not a problem for most people though.

    Great staff, beautiful setting.

    While there were some accommodations here and there, I think this would be a challenging location for anyone with mobility issues.

    We quite enjoyed the balcony view from our room - it was worth booking a balcony room. The cocktail bar was extremely comfortable and a nice place to relax. The bed was very comfortable. There are lots of on-site amenities (pool/fitness center, grassy lawn for children to run and play, etc.).

    Probably the colour of outside. Needs a spruce up but does not detract from the importance of the interior.
