Joan and Paul were great hosts for myself and my partner, I would highly recommend it for a romantic getaway. The pictures of the lodge and the grounds surrounding the estate don't do it enough justice, absolutely breath taking. It's so scenic, and has many lovely walks to enjoy. The bed is so comfy and you really feel at home once you step into the lodge with the fire burning. The only thing I regret is not staying longer and tasting Joan's famous baked goods, we'll definitely be making a trip back. Also worth a visit is Dromoland Castle a short drive away (15mins) for a lovely walk on the grounds.
