The kitchen facilities were good with plenty of plates and everything provided like dishwasher tablets. The host was brilliant sorting a minor alarm issue wilst we were out for the day, peace of mind that this is provided along with cctv outside the property was nice for us as anglers. The location is fantastic for Cootehill and the surrounding area with a very friendly bar/social club just short walk up the road. There is a lovely view out the back and whilst we stayed in autumn I'm sure it would be great in the winter with underfloor heating etc.

A very peaceful location. Had the pleasure of meeting the owners whilst there and enjoyed learning about the history of the property. We will definitely be returning to this property in the near future.
