Fall weekend trip
We wanted a fall weekend and wanted to bring our 2 dogs with us witch sometimes is hard to find a good place to stay even though they both very quiet and seasoned travellers, we licked out and choose this place mainly because the dogs were welcome, turned out to a very nice place, older but in great shape and very comfy beds, because we ready didn’t have hard fast plans, we planned our drive to come back to the lodge again on our way home

The breakfast experience was so bad that we declined to partake the second morning. Choices were few, juice was horrible and the coffee was undrinkable. The atmosphere was loud and very irritating with children running around and these were not guests children. It seemed there were way too many people milling around that were not paying customers. The bed was amazing , but because of its size there was not enough room to walk around the end without hitting the very protruding television hutch. I am a small person and I hit walking by on various occasions. There were bags of garbage left out in the weather at the end of the unit on the grass partially torn open.

The room was freezing - the heat hadn’t been turned on in anticipation of my arrival. I turned it on high and it took a few hours to warm. It advertised a hot breakfast- powdered eggs and sausage Pattie’s to make a sandwich no cheese - disappointing. Would of been fine if hot breakfast wasn’t advertised. Tv didn’t work well couldn’t get a guide just up and down channel.

It is an older property that is maintained fairly well. The staff was great. The driveway needs some repair and they advised us the carpet in the rooms will be taken out for next year. We have stayed here before and knew what to expect. We were here for Celtic Colours and were only there to sleep. During this festival a bus picks you up and takes you to and from the Gaelic College at night which is a great asset,

Very disappointed with lack of value received for my money. The two rooms I booked were both greatly in need of decor updates, bathrooms lacked normal hotel toiletries, and both rooms smelled dirty/musty. Carpets were stained/dirty, walls were marked and had holes in places. The included breakfast lacked options stated on their website (yogurt, fruit, fresh baked goods).
