“Fantastic Frank”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 June 2011

We had such a lovely stay - Frank, Mary and Mike did an excellent job to make us feel so comfortable. We had booked another place and had to cancel it after seeing it was not clean, but when we moved over to the Lake House we were so happy. It was clean, comfortable, great locaton for the sights we wanted to take in and the hosts were exceptional. WE highly recommend a stay here. Breakfast was wonderful.

Room Tip: We stayed in one of the little houses.

“Fabulous, friendly and affordable for everyone!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 May 2011

My husband and I stayed for 5 nights at the Lake House where we received a warm welcome from Frank, Mary, Mike and all the team. The hotel is spotlessly clean and comfortable. Our room was bright, big with a beautiful view out over the lake and golf course. However do not expect a power shower!! The bar area is friendly and relaxed and the food both in the bar and restaurant is first class.

There is a really friendly atmosphere and it is such a beaultiful place to stay...quiet and peaceful but within easy reach of local villages and towns. The scenery is stunning no matter what the weather (though we were really lucky with beautiful sunshine!). The local golf course which is close to the hotel is excellent (so my husband tells me!) and I do recommend the walks on the beaches nearby...Narin and Tramore.

There is so much to do and see and all the staff in the hotel will help you plan your stay. We will definitely be back!

“Booking Mishap - Hotel Closed”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2011

We arrived at this hotel late one afternoon to a sign on the door stating to go to the first self-catering cottage behind the hotel. We knocked on the door and were met by a man surprised by guests while the hotel was closed for his holidays. We explained that we had paid a deposit through the website (outside booking agency) and he gave us one of the self-catering cottages to use for the night. We never saw the inside of the hotel, but the cottage we stayed in was clean, warm, and comfortable.

The hotel's booking agency made the mistake, but allowing us to stay in such a wonderful cottage made up for that. I would book into these cottages if I was ever coming back to this area in the future.

“Great day”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 February 2011

We were at a wedding here last weekend and had a great time. From what we saw of the hotel it had a lovely decor. We didnt see the bedrooms.

All staff were so friendly. My girlfriend asked the barman for crisps during the reception and as they didnt have any he got her a plate of biscuits to keep her going until the meal.

The food was delicious. I am allergic to nuts and they really looked after me to ensure no nuts were in my food. I was even given different truffles at the end of the meal.

We would recommend a stay or a meal in the Lake House Hotel.

A very cousi hotel in a beautiful part of the country. The staff is outstandingly nice, the food excellent, and the hotel is very clean and confortable. The Lake House Hotel is the perfect place to feel relax and at home while exploring Ireland of just taking a rest to enjoy the peace of this part of the world. I will go back and I encourage all my friends to do the same if they are in the region.
