Absolutely beautiful property. The hotel is gorgeous. The cottage room we had was spacious, warm, and had a phenomenal Mountain View outside our room. The bathroom was fantastic. The rain shower was incredible as well. The staff was friendly and accommodating and the tour we received as weary travelers was entirely welcome at that point. We have been all over Ireland and this property ranks right at the top. Also - our dinner in the Cellar Bar was incredible. We will absolutely be back some day. Thanks to all for a wonderful stay!!

Beautiful rooms and grounds. Room service food did not have a cover so it got wet in the rain. Free breakfast was ok, nothing special.

More remote and isolated than I expected, but peaceful and beautiful. Noise from next room could've been an issue, but the white noise on my phone helped. Overall I enjoyed the stay and it was a memorable one.

We had the most magical stay at Cahernane house. The grounds are spectacular and we used the free bikes and walked to explore them. The staff went over and above to make our time there amazing—from a private history tour to amazing recommendations for places to eat in our next destination, they were incredibly kind and helpful. Our room was exquisite and not over the top, so we felt very comfortable. The included amenities were fabulous. This was absolutely our favorite hotel during our trip to Ireland. Our only regret was not being able to stay longer.

Hotel was excellent. Two very minor comments. 1. Wish hotel would have asked if we were celebrating anything and then offered something small. It was our 40th anniversary. 2. We chose an excursion that was recommended by hotel website (boat & bus) but there was confusion as to the starting point (hotel or Ross castle). We made the trip and it was excellent but there was confusion.
