A large group of 18 from the west of Ireland, New York,and London hired out Lisdonagh Manor House for the weekend with breakfast included. Everyone was very impressed with the large bright spacious rooms and the lovely interior decor. Would highly recommend for a large family get together in a lovely peaceful area. More

I spent a weekend in Lisdonagh with a large group of friends and every single one of us loved it and have been raving about it since. From the large, well equipped kitchen, to the comfortable, yet plush drawing room, to the beautiful views of the lake. Finuola and John were spot on. We had perfect privacy and yet they... More

What can we say? Lisdonagh House was just beautiful! The house itself was filled with history and elegance, yet very warm and family friendly. A group of 13 from my family did an exclusive rental week that we will never forget. Finola and John could not have been more welcoming and accommodating, even when we had some “last minute” requests.... More

If you are looking for a complete break from all the stresses of city life then look no further than Lisdonagh House, Galway, Ireland. The perfect peace of the Irish countryside, beautiful scenery, excellent food and friendly hosts John and Finola Cooke make this the perfect break to re-charge your batteries. The service was exceptional, and they were extremely helpful,... More

I had reservations the second I arrived to this place, because despite the lovely advertising, the place was filthy and smelly and clearly unkept. It smelled bad and looked bad and it was freezing cold inside. I almost left then (I wish I did), but the trip was pre-paid (BIG mistake), so I figured I will just ask the owner... More

I stayed in Lisdonagh for two nights in late July with one of my best friends for a weekend getaway and it turned out to be one of the best choices we have ever made. John and Finola came highly recommended by other family members who have stayed there over the past few years and we certainly weren't disappointed. Right... More

We have recently returned from a holiday in Ireland. We stayed at Lisdonagh House again. The ambiance was great,an oasis of calm in a frantic world, and a wonderful location for exploring Galway and Connemara. It was lovely to wake up in the morning in the depths of the Irish countryside and see a beautiful view of Lough Hackett outside... More

We stayed one night. 5 course dinner was really delicious, minimal wine choice but wine very reasonably priced. Breakfast fabulous, lots of fruit (raspberries, blackberries etc), jams, yoghurt and granola plus full irish breakfast cooked to order. Would have rated excellent overall, but found it quite pricey for current economic climate considering the lack of facilities eg a spa, pool... More

The location, the owners website, inclusion in Ireland's Blue Book, all this would suggest Lisdonagh House as the ideal gathering place for a special family celebration. The reality was a huge disappointment all the greater for having seen all of this in advance. This owners of this place should be ashamed. Gourmet cuisine was completely absent and had been replaced... More
