Exceptional food in scenic Clonakilty
Pros:

The location is AMAZING snd very scenic. The food is exceptional and the hotel caters for all dietary requirements and the food is served hot to everyone in a large group all at the same time. Very professional staff.

Cons:

There is no entertainment of any description in the evenings. It could be very quiet in the evenings if you visited as a couple. There are no leisure club facilities.
