Very clean room, one bathroom for a dozen people was a bit tricky. Had to go outside to a common area to get wifi. Good place to stay!

We had a lovely stay on St Patrick's day weekend. Sarah was very friendly and helpful, she gave us advice on local attractions and places to visit. The room was clean and comfortable and there were great facilities available. We would definitely stay again if we're ever in the area. Thanks

I booked this place because it was near an archery competition I attend the next day so I didn't have time to walk around but its location, surrounded by nature and megalithic cairns will definitely make me coming back! Thank you for the warm welcome :-)

An Amazing Place Off the Beaten Path
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Loughcrew Megalithic Centre. Our hosts were so wonderful and helpful. They told us some fantastic stories of local legends and told us some sites that were not to be missed. It was off the beaten path, which is what I was really looking for, but our experience there was better than I could have imagined.
