MICHAEL!!! We’ve been in Ireland for 5 nights and have stayed in 5 different places. The Lodge was above all our favorite! Michael was so warm and welcoming and had the best suggestions. The pizza place next-door is amazing! We were in Italy, 2 Christmases ago and this pizza was even better!

We loved The Lodge at the Old Barracks! We were greeted by name for checkin and recognized by staff the next morning at breakfast. Everyone was delightful, and the place was lovely! Room was big with a great view of the vilkage and restaurant across the street. Breakfast was delicious! Stay - you'll be glad you did.

Lovely lodge and inn with personal services. Proprietor greeted us by name and walked us to our room. Morning staff at the restaurant knew us and were most helpful! Breakfast was delicious!
