I only booked this hotel because it was close to the area where I wanted to stop for the night. But what a nice surprise. The dinner was incredible and served by candlelight in front of a window with the most gorgeous view of the sunset. Lots of comfy, attractive places to sit downstairs to relax. The people there were... More

We have just returned from a wonderful stay at the Ardagh where we had a family reunion in honour of our father who used to love this hotel.

We didn't expect... More
