Loved our stay, food and staff were excellent. Yes rooms and area are dated but all really clean. Could not fault anything about our short break and would book again.

Pleasantly surprised
Friendly staff, very accommodating for our requests. Instant hot water was an absolute bonus for us. Rooms were spacious and clean. Pool, sauna, hot tub, gym and games room facilities are old but well equipped and in working order. Lovely art gallery and shop inside. We would absolutely return here 😄 only downfall was the room we were in didn't have a safety deposit box, which would have been helpful.
It's was a wonderful stay me and my partner enjoy the stay. Room was nice and tidy and the view was adorable from property.

Disliked: Amenities
Curtains hanging off the rail. Quality of breakfast poor. Dinner was good. Access of leisure facilities difficult. No papers or Magazines.
Staff good but felt tired .
This is an old, tired and sprawling property. If the owners spent a lot of money, it could be grand again, but I'm not sure there's a business case for that.
Overnight stay as part of a holiday. Reception staff were welcoming and friendly. Meal was excellent. Bar staff friendly. Only 15 minutes from ferry crossing to Belfast.
