"We have stayed here several times over the past 5 years - The staff are very dog friendly and it was a very enjoyable stay. The lakeshore suites are dog friendly - the two end suites are the largest and those in the middle are quite large also. The suites are divided into sections all have their own entrance and are on one level - at the front facing Lough Eske you have a closed in outdoor area for each suite - this is accessible from patio doors from your living room / kitchenette - a hall way leads to a separate bedroom at the back and bathroom to the left of that... These lakeshore suites were refurbished about 5 years ago so are really modern... which differs to the scandinavian decor of the main hotel... Dogs are allowed everywhere except the bar and restaurant which is normal practice... The grounds are beautiful and you are right on the shore of Lock Eske.. No extra charge for you dog - and there is no limit to size.. I've met dog of every size.... The choice and quality of the food is wonderful - from snacks to full a la carte.... The only issue I've had recently is trying to book more then 2 /3 nights - when we've stayed here previously we'd usually stay 6 - 10 nights - the past 2 years I've found it impossible to book that qty of consecutive nights.. However, if you know well in advance your vacation dates - then you shouldn't have an issue - as you can pre-book and there isn't any penalty for cancellation within a certain period of time. For us, we'd only know our scheduled time off 2 or 3 weeks in advance - so we haven't been able to return here the past 2 years. And, one extra special item - if you dog behaves as I'm sure all of ours do.. He will be presented with a certificate of Good behaviour - so a nice reminder of your visit.. This is a wonderful location for experiencing the northern part of the Wild atlantic way... "
"While it is almost 2 years since we stayed here I feel compelled to let other pet travellers know about this place. Pet accommodation in in your room, the rooms are high quality and in a separate little bloc attached to the main body of the hotel by a covered walkway. This bloc overlooks a lovely lakeside view, and directly accesses a number of short walks ideal for our masters to do their particulars. And the rest of the hotel, and its location, are just as good. Recommended unhesitatingly. "
"Staff are friendly and the rooms are very comfortable. We stayed in one of the rooms on the ground floor which opened out onto a garden with a nice view of the lake. These rooms are probably the best for dog owners but there was no restrictions by the management on where you wanted to stay with your pooch. Food in the restaurant is of a high standard - Its a lovely hotel and makes a good base for touring South Donegal or just to chill and unwind - its a hotel I would like to revisit."
