Cottages in County Monaghan

"Hotel is very clean as are the rooms. Staff are friendly and helpful. Luke in the bar deserves a mention for his attentiveness and chat. Food excellent. "

"Lovely reception/lobby area. Relaxed and comfortable. Parking available. Clean and spacious room, with smart TV. Would have preferred a kettle to a coffee machine (as machine was noisy and the tea had a coffee taste, as if filter not cleaned.) Some water in the room would have been a nice touch also. Check-in staff and bar staff were very friendly and helpful. However, the breakfast staff were very rude, unhelpful and abrupt. The breakfast experience itself was a big disappointment. The selection of cold options was very limited- cereal and fruit. The hot food was clearly sitting there for a long time (fried eggs were cold and hard). The brown bread was rock hard and of poor quality. The cereal bowls were dirty. Breakfast was served from 7: 00am until 10 am, but at 9:30am staff were not refilling items e.g. water jug was not refilled and at 10: 01 am staff started clearing away juice, milk etc and tidying up the stations. No option to refill tea. We approached one staff member with a question about the food (as the hot food was not self-service and there was nobody at the counter to serve it), and she replied 'can't you see I'm busy- I'm clearing up here'.

"Great big room with very large comfortable bed. Everything needed in room for overnight stay. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of variety. Walks around grounds and short drive into town centre. Spa was good but a few things not working properly. Food in restaurant was excellent. Would return in summer months. "
