    family-friendly amenities
    noisy nights

    I had a great experience enjoying a delicious rib-eye steak and chatting with the friendly locals over a pint. The kids loved the play area and bouncy castle, making it perfect for our family. The only downside was that it got a bit noisy at night, but we still had a blast! 🍔

    good food
    play area
    varied menu
    limited storage
    supply issues

    The food was good, and the kids enjoyed the play area outside. We found it refreshing to have a varied menu for children, which offered options beyond what is usually available. We appreciated how well the staff catered to our family needs during our stay.

    The room had limited storage for clothes, which was inconvenient for our family. We had to request more supplies for tea and milk several times during our stay.

    bathroom access

    pleasant stay with room for improvement

    The family room layout was practical, with one area featuring a kingsize bed and another with two singles perfect for kids. Breakfast offered a satisfying selection that kickstarted our day, and the staff's friendliness made us feel genuinely welcomed.

    The bathroom's access from the second room made late-night trips a bit tricky.

    separate bedrooms
    cozy decor
    lovely view
    no mirror
    tight quarters

    We stayed in a quadruple room and it was surprisingly great! The setup was perfect with two separate bedrooms, which gave us lots of space. The beds were super comfy and the decor was nice. We had a lovely view from the room, especially with the snow. Only downside was no full-length mirror, but honestly, not a biggie. It felt cozy, like a home away from home after a long day out.

    customizable breakfast
    good value

    It was just a prime choice for a weekend adventure in Ashbourne with exceptional value. The coffee at breakfast was a bit weak, but it was nice to customize our order. Make sure to check the menu before planning your meals.

    Charming stay with scenic views

    I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, especially the beautiful views from my room and the friendly staff who went out of their way to ensure I was comfortable. The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed, and the cozy atmosphere in the pub made for a lovely evening after a day of exploring. The only downside was the limited breakfast options, which could be improved.
