Fabulous family stay.
Pros:

There is not much to dislike about the property. Its location is so peaceful and tranquil, the log fires burning in the lobby and restaurant are cosy and atmospheric. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. The outdoor heated pool is a lovely facility. We stayed in a classic room. It was spacious, spotless and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities. There’s a play room for smaller toddlers.

Cons:

I think the pool area would do well with a small shelter with hooks to hang towels and gowns because if it’s raining you have no choice but to leave your towels and robes in the rain. Also as an adult supervising a child you have to stand out in the rain. A small sheltered seating area would be good. Hot tubs are €50 per hour for a maximum of 4 people but for a couple or even a person on their own it’s a bit pricey. We had dinner in Bonnie’s. It was very good and service was very friendly and fast but I thought the menu could have had a bit more choice but that’s just a personal opinion and the breakfast continental buffet could be better with more variety. There were ample tea bags and coffee in the room but maybe a few sachets of hot chocolate would be a nice idea for the younger guests.

Pros:

The location is stunning, views are beautiful. Great area to go on walks. Very comfortable room.

Cons:

Food/service (dinner/breakfast) was not great, especially for the steep price. One of the tap regulators in the bathroom fell off and the one in the shower was stuck on a setting that was too hot.
