10/10 Exceptional

Our 4 night stay was thoroughly enjoyed, especially during our sessions booked in the Spa. The breakfasts were very good and we had a lovely evening meal in the Bar, where Staff were especially friendly and helpful. The July downside was our experience in The Ivy Restaurant where, on a Saturday night, it was incredibly noisy. After sitting at pur table for 5 minutes, being unable to hear ourselves think, let along hear ourselves speak, we decided to make our apologies and left, going to The Bar downstairs to eat instead. Advice: there are specialist Companies who can help with your noise problem in The Ivy Restaurant; noise absorption and noise reduction Specialists. Instead of the noise from talking bouncing off and around so many hard surfaces, until it becomes unbearable, there are simple things like adding materials to Decor to absorb sound. We would not choose to eat in The Ivy Restaurant, unless noise reduction improvements were made.

The property was in a quiet rural setting with the town of Dunboyne walking distance away. Really enjoyable and relaxing location. Note that there is a spa but no full size swimming pool on site. Dining options were very good and service was great. Looking forward to returning to this property.

Had such a fantastic stay here, after our flight was canceled and we struggled to find accommodations this place accepted us. We ended up staying here for 2 nights and it was peaceful and relaxing. Beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The exterior of the property and the grounds were well maintained. The staff took great care of us.

I had a basic room, but it was nice. The grounds are beautiful and the staff was lovely. Enjoyed the bars/restaurants in walking distance. The locals were all very welcoming and friendly. About 20 minute walk to the train station that is easy transport to Croke Park in Dublin.
