Great stay!

We stayed here for 1 night as a stop over to Belfast. Room was comfortable, a little hot but they supplied us with a fan when we asked. Ate in the bar, food was beautiful and very reasonable. Grounds are lovely and well kept. It was recommended by a friend and we were delighted with our stay.

A lovely old castle hotel which has been tastefully restored and so provides comfort with character. Friendly staff and great food. A fabulous property for a short, relaxing break.
