Walls are like paper. Everything and I mean everything can be heard between rooms. Noise from the restaurant downstairs is clear as day also in rooms.
Saying that, staff are extremely nice, very clean, lovely breakfast made to order.

Self contain and quiet. You’ve got everything you need.
This 18th-century castle has a quiet location, looking out over huge grounds and beautiful countryside. It is now a 4-star hotel, mixing original character with modern luxury and free parking.

A town not too far from Dublin airport and within easy distance to Co Tyrone ,Northern Ireland.The locals very very friendly and the local pubs were traditional , well at least the ones I went into. YES the Guinness does taste different to the British variety .Ireland in common with most places these days is not a cheap place ,indeed the price of property is on par with England as opposed to a few years when it was dirt cheap.
Roads generally in good repair , the main ones , the side roads can be problematic.

The staff were exceptionally helpful, with advice (local taxi's who were very reliable & fair priced)
Wilst preparing for an event a 'sticky' garment cleaner was required; again reception were able to help. I cannot fault the staff for their help & advice. A real credit to the hotel.

Myself and my daughter had a very relaxing stay.
Myself and my daughter had a very relaxing stay. We particularly enjoyed the spa treatment called ‘the pick n mix’. The lady who gave us Indian head massages and leg and foot massages was outstanding. The food in the restaurant was fabulous with beautiful views surrounding the dining area. The staff were so helpful and friendly. It is a very welcoming hotel. Our only minor disappointment was the big, hard pillows. I didn’t sleep very well. In saying that, we would come back !

Very nice property with its own access so you can come and go as you please without feeling as though you are disturbing the main household. The room itself is very comfortable with a spacious bed/living area, en suite and kitchenette - perfect for a short stay. Pauline was lovely and very accommodating too. It’s a short walk to Carrickmacross Main Street so easy access to shops and restaurants.
The food was excellent - very tasty, with some nice variations compared to other hotels. The bar/restaurant has a lovely rustic feel. Spacious room with a very comfortable bed.
