We loved our time at The Gate Lodge! It is a private and picturesque property with renovated living spaces inside. Rooms were comfortable, spacious and included many extra touches like large soft towels and big pillows. And the free WIFI was something that all of us really appreciated with 6 phones/ipads! The full kitchen enabled us to cook family meals and pack lunches for daytrips. We loved the beautiful gardens on the property and the walkability of the surrounding area. Most of all, we sincerely enjoyed meeting Nuala and Hugh. They were quick to respond to questions before our trip, flexible when it came to check-in time, and very helpful with suggestions once we got there. They are genuinely nice people who helped make our trip to Ireland perfect. We would recommend The Gate Lodge without reservation... and it will stay on our list of "Favorites" for our next trip to Ireland!
