The folks there were just awesome! We were greeted with a handwritten note by Isabella along with a homemade treat! The location was great. The room was enormous and the bed comfy. Breakfast was a real treat! We loved being so close to the water and would definitely stay there again. It was a perfect location for our day trip to Kylemore Abbey!

Excellent communication before and after our stay. The room was well stocked and there were plenty of dining choices nearby. There are breakfast choices for all and friendly servers. We liked having privacy and freedom there.
