Muckno Lodge was better than anything words or pictures could describe! Fiona was a superb hostess and her kindness went above and beyond anything that you would ever expect. Our family vacation to Castleblaney was an opportunity for us to meet family living in the are, the lodge was the perfect place have our family for dinner, tea or cocktails! The scenery at Muckno was spectacular, we "adopted" a family of cows including newborn "Baby Taylor" that we were able to watch stand up and walk only a short time after his birth! The Lodge is spotless, it has every amenity you could ask for! The bedrooms and bathrooms are huge, the first floor suite has it's own bathroom which is perfect for anyone not wanting to go upstairs. The history behind the lodge is unique and the craftsmanship is beautiful! Fiona provides a list of recommendations for restaurants and things to do, Fiona's dad also provides many local recommendations, all with a smile and a huge personality. Muckno made our vacation better than we could have ever asked for, there were six of us in the house for over one week and there was never a time there was a lack of space for anyone! If you are thinking about booking Muckno, do not hesitate, STAY HERE!!! You will not be disappointed. I would return to Castleblaney just to stay at Muckno Lodge!!
