    We had a continuous problem with the water in our en-suite which was not resolved during our stay despite efforts to do so. However upon checkout we were given compensation.

    Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast and bar food was very good. Atmosphere was very lively. Beds were comfortable and clean.

    A bit long in the tooth. Decor was confused as to who it was trying to be and inconsistent with the building. Seemed a bit slap dash. The faucet for the hot water was not secure in the sink.

    It was quiet, easy to walk about the village and had great parking. The staff were very attentive and helpful. Breakfast was tasty and generous with good selection. The shower was very good, clean and easy to access.

    The sash window in the bathroom wouldn’t open and there was an unpleasant smell in there. I reported it to the desk so I hope it gets resolved.

    Beautiful location with very friendly staff. Food was good and served with a smile. Nothing too much trouble.

    Our room was above the bar so for those who would find it difficult to drift off to sleep with music, ie my husband, this would have been an issue, but as he wasn't with us it was no problem. But if I'm to book again and with him I would request a room not over the bar.

    Food was lovely and staff very friendly and helpful. It has an old world charm, which myself and my boys loved, to have a key for your room and not a fob, that was a novelty for them. The location was fantastic and definitely value for money

    Breakfast needs some organisation. Poor fruit choice. Excellent outdoor terrace but no food service there, which is very odd. Also, we were told by bar waiter that it was not allowed to bring food purchased in Hotel out to terrace ???. We did get an ok for this on request from Manager but it was a bit strange!!!!

    Super location. Great view of bay from upstairs room. Lovely cliff walk nearby and also a forest walk. A trip on the car ferry to Ballyhack and drive around Hook Peninsula to the Hook lighthouse was excellent.

    We both had the Queen roast beef that was just delicious but was lukewarm which was an awful pity. I did complain to a staff member who apologised.

    We stayed in what was a triple room single and double beds. The room was reasonably well decorated and for the most part pleasant however the bathroom was tiny and the far corner of the room had sockets past the single bed.. not very accessible.. the room was ok for 2 bit to be honest for 3 it was a little crowded. The second morning breakfast was not as nice and the staff seemed less pleasant.. not necessarily rude but not as friendly as before.

    Location great 👍 and the hotel has character. Staff accommodating as I requested 2 beds as stayed with mum. Then my sister joined for second night . There was a pull out “stool” for both cases abd the towels were fluffy with nice clean bedding. Breakfast had good choices .. tge first day the pancakes were v tasty ( had some of mums).. I had the mini cooked breakfast and cereal and lovely fresh fruit. Servers v attentive and pleasant. I gut extra water and ice for the room which was no bother..

    The room we were staying in was above the bar. We had a 7 year old with us. Which was included in the booking. So it was very noisy.

    Beautiful quaint hotel. Fabulous location. Excellent staff.
