"Hadn't been here in a while but wont be leaving it as long until I'm back again. Lovely ambiance and great staff. Booked in advance. Place has very busy but that didn't take away from experience. On entering we were shown to waiting area where we were given our menus and drink order taken. Specials for the night were described. After giving our order we were taken to our table about 10 mins later. What can I say about the food. It was fabulous; tasty, succulent and well presented. Before starters arrived we were given a lovely slice of warm bread to enjoy with the wine. I had the fivemiletown goats cheese mouse and better half had deep fried stuffed mushrooms . Both beautiful. For mains we had the roast wood pigeon and wild mallard. Both cooked to perfection. Flavours were amazing. I had dessert dark chocolate and wild atlantic whiskey pot. Fantastic way to finish off meal. Ann had the baileys hot chocolate she said it was divine. Get booked you wont be disappointed."

"Stayed here for one night for work. The receptionist was friendly and helpful and overall, the staff are all polite, friendly and helpful. The rooms however are underwhelming and a bit shabby. I stayed in room 102, which is right next to the door to access the corridor for the rooms, and was pretty noisy with other guests wandering up and down. You're also directly beside reception, so when people are stood outside smoking and chatting, that is all you can hear. Would be nice if reception could monitor the noise after 10pm and ask smokers to keep the noise down, as I was disturbed more than once. I was also unable to turn the radiator off, turning the valve made no difference. The mirror in the room was dirty and the bathroom was shabby, with drips of paint everywhere and an unfinished edge to the counter where the sink is. The towels were also stained. The food was ok. I had the steak fajitas, with boiled potatoes. The steak came in a sauce that I didnt enjoy. I ordered room service and the plates were delivered with only a spoon and no napkins. I'm not sure how they thought I was going to eat the potatoes, so had to go and ask for a knife and fork. I had had a long day the previous day, been up since 4.30am for a flight and then a full day of work, so had decided to sleep a bit longer, only to be disturbed at 8am by some scraping and banging noises outside of my room window, opened the window to find a man scraping the paint off of the next door window sill outside. When I asked if it was necessary to do that at 8am, he advised it needed to be painted today. I said, I have paid to stay here and am still in bed! He apologised and moved but why would a hotel allow maintenance to start at 8am?! Overall, not worth the £109 paid and would not stay here again."

"I took my mother and son there in August this year and had a dreadful experience. It was Sunday and we did not wish to have the buffet which seemed to annoy the staff. We were placed on a table and forgotten about. My son ordered an Irish coffee and I had to ask three times before they brought it. My mother is in her mid-eighties and decided to go after waiting for 30 minutes with no sign of the food coming. As we had paid they gave us a carry out of cold mash and dry chicken, forgetting the chips. I felt guilty as it was my decision to go there but never again, and gave my son a very bad impression of so called Irish hospitality. Perhaps if you are local you receive good service (although mum lives 2 miles away) but we were treated disgracefully. Needless to say the next time I visit mum we will go elsewhere and I suggest you all do the same if you are not a regular."

"My husband and I went for breakfast here this morning and were extremely disappointed. I got the French toast and asked for fruit instead of bacon but was told this was not possible. Despite the fact that they had fruit as the person sitting next to me got fruit with their pancakes. French toast was very poor, it was literally 2 slices of bread dipped in egg and fried for £6.70. Honestly, most people would make a lot better breakfast at home. My husband’s wasn’t much better, very plain and not worth the price. The coffee wasn’t up to standard either. It was the worst breakfast I have had in a restaurant. I wish I took a picture to post."
