The place was lovely, lots of beautiful scenery. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Several cafes to get coffee/tea and pastries. Onsite restaurant was good but can get overly busy for dinners especially weekends since the area is limited for eating out at dinner time.

Designate a drinking area.

Hotel lacked a traditional Irish bar. There seemed to be no distinct drinking area as all the tables were set for dinner and there was only five stools at the bar. Staff did offer to serve drink in a tv room. Way below what anyone would expect in an Irish hotel. Grout in bathroom badly needs replacement. We generally enjoyed our stay. Staff were friendly and helpful.
