Nice & Relaxing
Lough Eske was stop 4 on my Ireland trip. Grounds are beautiful but keep in mind this place is pretty secluded. The room was very spacious and the bathroom was awesome. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Food and drinks at the bar were decent but included breakfast was fantastic. My only complaint is the bed and bedding. Bed mattress was not very comfortable, pillows were overstuffed, and bedding was not soft. Would recommend to friends for a 1 night stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Spectacular setting for a hotel. Beautiful scenery and facilities. Rooms were huge and comfortable, well appointed. Dinner and breakfast at Cedars were tasty, though dinner service was really slow. 5 stars for the lodging and 3.5 for the dinner. Way too pricey for dinner for service not to be on par with the lodging.
