I've stayed in many hotels, inns and b&bs across Ireland and this place, by far, is the most beautiful. It is a grand old manor house just outside of Letterkenny, not within walking distance of the town unless you'd really like a hike, but a quick drive into town. The owners were gracious, the rooms were lovely, and the breakfast... More

Beautiful house, wonderful location, kind of idiosyncrantic - hotel Marmite! I love Marmite :-) If you need homogeneous neutral decor and could be anywhere in the world kinda feeling, don't come here - if you can appreciate character and uniqueness and true hospitality, come on down!

While attending wedding locally we stayed 2 nights here. Words can hardly express the sense of welcome, comfort, hospitality and general relaxation that we experienced. This is due in no small part to Ray and Mary T Sweeney, to Eileen and Bar Staff. The Food was simply divine and of an excellent standard. Surprise after surprise arrived at our table... More

I have just returned from a stay here over Easter and cannot say enough about it. We had a wonderful relaxing and peaceful respite from the real world and it was a task to get us to leave.We threatened to move in! There really was a special atmosphere.

The whole place itself screamed of... More

Overlooking the lake and set is its own private estate- its the perfect place to stay if you'd like a true 'chilled-out' experience.... More

Had dinner here with friends first week in February. It was night time so didn't see much of the outside. On entering the house, it is inviting with big open fires and the staff are very courteous and create a relaxing atmosphere. The food is top notch, small portions but top quality food. The whole evening was relaxing but the... More
