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.

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.

Both nights we stayed there was a lot of noise. The first night (Sat) shouting in the corridor,3am, Sunday night someone continually knocking on one of the doors around 2am. The bathroom I thought was spotless until I put a wet towel over the top, a load of hair floated down. The bed wasn’t made properly as the bottom sheet was too small and kept slipping down, it didn’t look too white either. The breakfast and dining were lovely and so were the staff.
