Staff very helpful and courteous. Lighting in bedroom, especially the bathroom, was really dim. It was impossible to read even when we got an extra bedside lamp from reception. Fresh food salad at breakfast was really disappointing as it consisted mainly of apples with minimal other fruit except watermelon.Not what I expected.

Wonderful view if the Lough. Good food and friendly service. The bathroom could do with brighter lighting and although breakfast was lovely (recommend the avocado, beetroot, posched eggs) it was not clear that you had to get your toast from the buffet which is strange seeing as it says on the menu scramble eggs on toast.

We had a great stay! The property is in perfect conditions and service was super friendly, from the reception to the restaurants. We loved having the opportunity to have a late dinner, as we arrived quite late. It was all delicious and we had plenty of options to choose from. Thanks for your hospitality!

I want to stay again！

The room was spacious and clean, and there was no room to spread out two large suitcases. There was also a supermarket and a fast food restaurant nearby, which was convenient. I was very grateful for the bathtub and electric kettle. However, I wanted a refrigerator. Was it possible that the dishes on the menu were free for breakfast? I didn't look at the menu carefully because I saw first that coffee was charged.
