Recent Reviews in Dowra

Markree Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing service and room - stayed for two nights and adventured mostly off property, but enjoyed drinks in the lounge, desert in the main dining room, and walks about the garden with sweet Fionn, the resident Irish wolfhound. The staff recommended a fantastic dinner restaurant at “The Venue”, just a 15 minute drive from the castle. Wish we could have stayed longer but certainly we will be returning."

Aisleigh Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly and helpful, couldn't fault anything about my stay"

Hazelwood Holiday Home - Cozy & Homely

10/10 Excellent

"A very pleasant place to stay. Close to town but far enough away that traffic noise never an issue Close by to plenty of neat places to visit Knocknarea especially"

Hillcrest B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Had a lovely stay and hope to again next year the host was excellent as was her breakfast. Beautiful area to stay and lovely people and house."

Castle Dargan Hotel

8/10 Good

"The bathroom was located by the air vent and had to sit sideways. The towels holders was located above the toilet and my husband stood up and smashed his head. He has a cut as a result."

Trivia House Accomodation

8/10 Good

"No actual person or reception area to check in at. A sign asking you to ring when you arrive, which causes some difficulty when you dont have a international phone number. Room and facilities were great. Clean, modern, well maintained no faults. Car parking good onsite."

Leitrim Marina Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location, two local pubs are fun, rooms were very pleasant. Apart from one sweet young cleaner, I didn't see any staff. Personally i hate automated check in and the pin numbers etc hadn't come through so I was stuck outside (with a couple of other new guests) for half an hour. No answer to the phone calls either. Real people might cost money but they determine how a place is perceived."

Carrick Plaza Suites & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Very courteous staff. Although the room was not cleaned daily."

Drumhierny Woodland Hideaway

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience! My family really enjoyed our stay, including our dog 🐶. The stay was so relaxing, we could have stayed there forever!"
