Sunday Lunch in Ardtara was wonderful yesterday. The open fires on a chilly afternoon, and the warm welcome from Valerie and the rest of the staff is such a special treat from the usual bland hotel conveyor belt.

The rooms are heavenly, large and have everything you might need. We travelled with a 3 year old and the staff were wonderful... More
