My boyfriend and I came here for the first time and had a wonderful midweek break. The food was delicious, the rooms are a generous size with beautiful views out over the countryside, and the spa facilities are superb. There's enough to do here that you can easily bring a few books and relax at the property for a long weekend. Everything here is so convenient we never really felt the need to leave, making it perfect for when the weather is uncooperative during a mid-winter break. It's also easy to get to Cavan by bus and a 10 minute cab ride from there. From Dublin the 109 express bus is a great alternative to having to drive and takes roughly the same amount of travel time. The only two things that would have made the trip better are the bed and the spa slippers. Our bed was two twin beds joined together to make a king bed, but there was a slight gap between the two which made it slightly uncomfortable for two people sharing. Additionally, the spa only provides one size of slippers for everyone. These are on the smaller side and did not fit my boyfriend's feet. We asked the front desk and the spa if they would have any other options, but that was all they had, so my boyfriend had to wear his socks around the pool and spa area. Next time we'll know to bring him sandals, we just weren't expecting them to only have slippers in small sizes. I don't think these would fit a guy with feet larger than a UK 10, so if you're a guy with larger feet, bring your own flip-flops or sandals! All in all, an amazing place and one we'll be delighted to go back to.
