The location is 10/10, beautiful place. The scenery was lovely and the accommodation on the outside looked very nice; the street style layouts, the chalets, the lodges, really nice place. The breakfast buffet was varied and tasty and the lunch/dinner options were varied enough to satisfy most people for a night or two at least. The range of activities for adults was pretty good on the island. The whole place was child and dog friendly.

The room on the inside was a little rough around the edges. Poor finish on the bathroom, some tiles and trim were unsightly, toilet roll holder was broken and there were uncleaned corners of the rooms, meaning spider webs and loads of small flies were building up, given the island location it did become annoying. Our room was also beside some sort of maintenance unit (room 28) and there was noise from a generator or something else that was annoying throughout the stay. The tennis courts are pretty terrible. Cracking concrete does not make for a good court experience. It's also set up for a 5 a side football arena, much more suitable than for the tennis.

We love coming back here every few years. Scenery is beautiful. Moon bouncing off the water is amazing! We love seeing the swans & ducks just walk up to where you’re staying. A beautiful island.

I had a small problem at the start but the staff fixed it 1st thing in the morning. The staff were amazing & couldn’t have helped me anymore. Food was outstanding! Everything arrived on time & hot. Waitresses & waiters were lovely. Thank you to all the staff that helped my family & I have a break away that was so much needed. We have amazing memories x

We enjoyed our stay. Very relaxing, lovely room, staff and food. We very much enjoyed our dinner on our first night, and our breakfast on the last day, lovely food. We also enjoyed spending some time in the pool. The staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Looking forward to staying again.

Just a few tiny things, when we arrived our room had obviously just been cleaned (which is good!) But the floor was really quite wet, so when we walked in we left footprints all over the place - felt like we were making more of a mess than we needed to. The blind on our front door was also a little broken, it wouldn't go back up after pulling it down and we had to manually roll it up. Again, not a big deal, just small things.

The location is beautiful. The restaurant food was excellent. We had 2 dinners there and the whole family enjoyed every dish. Breakfast was good too. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and the shower was great. The views of the lough from the room were beautiful. We enjoyed the pool.

The radiators were extremely hot and the room a bit too warm but otherwise great. The spa was booked up over a week beforehand. It might be good to highlight when booking your stay you will need to book any treatments etc well in advance. There didn't seem to be a sauna or steam room.

i loved most of everything, the staff was very good and professional we really enjoyed the meals the waitress Anietta (I'm not sure about the spelling) was very helpful and friendly, I was so surprised and happy to find so many vegan options for myself. Also, the spa and swimming pool were very relaxing

The place was a bit far from everything else so if you forget something you'll have to drive to the nearest town. I think they could add some free activities like board games and books in the main building. A bit pricey for the whole experience

We stayed in a Lodge so it was self catering but we were offered breakfast as an option which was a nice touch, but we catered for ourselves. We were part of a wedding party so dinner was sorted. The Lodge was very spacious, very clean, and the beds were very comfy. We got married there 24 years ago and are planning on celebrating our 25th anniversary with you next Aug 2025.

Couldn't find any instructions on how to heat the Lodge. My son eventually found the heating controls the next morning upstairs of all places. So we endured a chilly evening and had to light the fire.

It is beautiful spotlessly clean and very comfortable bed. Beautiful surroundings. An absolute gem of a place highly recommend it.

Lighting poor in room. Bathroom mirror light not working and lights above the main mirror orange so hard to do make up. Breakfast buffet was cold.

Lovely place, really beautiful. There were weddings on both days we were there, but this wasn’t an issue (there was no problem with noise or anything!). Nice breakfast. Relaxing and lovely spa treatments.

The restaurant menu wasn’t great, very few healthy options and it was basically the same menu for lunch and dinner (shorter for lunch with a few sandwiches added…but very similar!). If you’re there for a few days you’d run out of new things to eat!

Stayed here for my partners 30th birthday I had messaged a member of staff to ask if they could add on extras (we paid obviously) to make it special, Kirsty had went down to our room and added a bottle of Prosecco on ice and 6 beer alongside a happy birthday plate and some lovely swan towels on the bed! It was a wonderful touch! Nothing was of any bother! Highly highly recommended. Thanks so much Kirsty for helping make our stay that wee bit more special xx
