Everything was broken - cold showers, dirty water supply and terrible staff
Pros:

The views are beautiful and were the only redeeming factor for the accommodation. Credit to the housekeeping team, the lodge was very clean and the overall lodge could have been lovely if the owners did the most basic of maintenance to make sure things work but unfortunately there was so many things not working

Cons:

The WiFi didn't work, the water pressure was really bad upstairs and the showers were cold. The cold water supply is badly contaminated, the cold water was completely black in the sink with dirt and silt. The balcony and decking has missing and loose railings which would be very dangerous for young kids. There was no hairdryer and when we went to reception to ask for one, there was no one there (at 8pm) and the bar manager refused to talk to us instead telling a young waiter to tell us they won't give us a hairdryer (to be fair to the young waiter he was polite and shouldn't have have to deal with the issues but the manager had no interest in doing her job) I wouldn't have minded as much if all the issues were reflected in a reduced price point but €460 for 2 nights to not have drinking water, working WiFi or a warm shower is very poor.

Overall the hotel was lovely and the location
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Rang prior to enquire about gluten free options and was assured that they’re were plenty.
Unfortunately on arrival that was not the case. Was disappointing. Also asked for an irish coffee and was told by bar staff that it was not possible as the coffee machine was off
