Hotel to avoid.
Cons:

We had 2 nights booked but on arrival the hotel was closed. We subsequently found out the owners decided to close on a Monday and Tuesdays but we had not been told of this so we arrived at the property.
Hotel looked rundown. Grounds were unkept (grass not cut and flower beds full of weeds. Water fountain full of stagnant water. This would ex[plain the owners decision to close for 2 nights !!!

Nice facilities. Shame about the reception in formation and signage
Pros:

Lovely room and the main house and grounds were spectacular

Cons:

Very poor information on arrival. Confusion over how to access car parking and which one to use. Very poor directions and signage to room and property facilities provided on arrival. Room number 24 was located inside rooms 25 and 26 with no number 24 sign provided. Electric gate didn’t work on departure.

Pros:

Was interested in history of the location and house. The sauna /spa closed at 1700 hours and only opened at 1000am. Compare that with designated sign in and leave policy. So it's just bullshit. When I actually physically visited the spa... Attendant was asleep on the reception couch and couldn't speak either English nor Irish. Very disappointed

One of the best stays I've had.
Pros:

Large room and huge bed, a small kitchenette. Smart TV and a shower and large bath. More than you'd expect from a hotel room.

Cons:

Nothing.
