Our room was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. Our evening meal was delicious. We could even see deer in the field just across the narrow road from the hotel. There was a good choice for breakfast, which was very nice.

We were there for a 2 night stay at the end of August. The hotel is very well taken care of & it is in a quiet lovely location. It’s beautiful inside too. Rooms are cozy, clean , quiet, & decorated very nicely. The food & service in dining room is amazing! The free breakfast is plentiful, delicious, & fresh. It is a nice touch.

A lovely stay as this homely hotel. Room was cosy and uniquely decorated. Service was good and food was lovely. A slower pace for our over night stay with a friendly warm welcome from the owner. Lovely bar and entrance area and other guests were very friendly. Road in and out (20plus miles) was very narrow

Richard was a very friendly host and the meals were excellent. A firmer mattress on the bed would have been nice. A little expensive, but understandable considering the difficulties in operating in such a remote location. We would stay in The Drumbeg Hotel again.
