Just back from a weekend in Dunbrody and it was absolutly perfect. We stayed two nights and had dinner in both the bar and restaurant, both perfect and something for everyone. Wine list was excellent with some very high quality but reasonable offerings. Hotel was very clean and comfortable with warm and competant staff, we felt very relaxed there and every question or query was answered with a smile. As someone who uses hotels on a regular basis I can honestly say it was one of the best I have experienced. Darren

For a relaxing, indulgent few days, I would highly recommend Dunbrody House. The house and grounds are beautiful. The decor is completely in keeping with the period of the house. There is not one jarring note. The breakfast is delicious. All the produce is of the highest quality. I really cannot speak highly enough of the staff. They made our visit really special. A call out to Harry, Rebecca, Debbie, Jenny, Majella and others whose names I've forgotten. Thank you.

Loved this place. The hotel was beautiful and very tastefully decorated. The bedrooms were individually decorated and any we saw were stunning. The location is an idyllic peaceful location.The team was very professional. We went primarily for the food and we weren't disappointed.

From start to finish, we had a fantastic stay at Dunbrody House. The staff were so nice and attentive especially the lady at reception and we were really well looked after. We checked in and had a nice coffee and went for a lovely coastal walk to Arthurstown and had a pint there in a nice old school l pub overlooking the bay. Back up and had a walk around the charming Dunbrody house grounds and in for a top class pint of Guiness in the elegant bar. ( for an old world charming place, all the rooms were so nicely heated btw ). Dinner was fabulous and lived up to our expectation with every dish briefly and subtley explained in their beautiful dining room . Great guidance on wines and menu were given as well and the maitre d was charming which enhanced our experience. Rooms were beautiful as well and very cosy . Thanks to all at Dunbrody, hope to see you again ! A great place to really unwind !…

Just back from a really relaxing break at Dunbrody House Hotel. From start to finish the stay was so enjoyable. On check in and check out the staff were very welcoming and efficient. The room and bathroom were fabulous and the bed was really comfortable. We had both breakfast and evening meals at the hotel. The food was excellent, all breads were homemade and fresh scones baked daily, were so light and tasty. The jams and marmalades were the nicest I’ve tasted for years. The attention to detail in the restaurant and the service was also fantastic. A special mention for Pat and Debbie who were so attentive and looked after us so well. We were lucky enough to have good weather and did the loop walk from the grounds of the hotel to Arthurstown.I’d highly recommend Dunbrody House to anyone for a weekend away from it all.…

A superior fine dining and accommodation experience. Lovely staff in the bar and restaurants and the refurbished rooms are elegant and so quiet at night. Great place to get away from it all and live it up in opulent luxury. Make sure to book dinners and breakfasts in advance. Lots of scenic amenities nearby and there are some great walks around the property.

I would love to be writing a positive review of Dunbrody House as we met one or two staff who were just fabulous but after our experience I feel like I should warn people. Everyone understands that sometimes expectations are not met but its how you deal with this that shows a good customer experience and unfortunately this is where Dunbrody House fell down hugely. Our concerns were initially dismissed when we called after checking in, on check out we werent asked how our stay was and when we aired our disappointment with the cleanliness and quality of the accommodation we were met with defensiveness and when we sent an email to detail our complaint we were told the owner would reply as soon as possible, over two weeks later we have not received a reply. We booked a two night stay for New Years's Eve in the two bed self catering lodge. The information was scant on the website but the reviews were good. After booking we found out that we had no dining option for NYE as the only option was to go with an eight course gala dinner and as we have a young baby that wasn't an option, and this wasnt clear when we booked, much like the crucial details about the lodge the website failed to tell us this before we booked. We were looking forward to the spa, which was closed and there were other facilities listed which weren't available. So before we arrived it wasn't a great start. When we arrived at the lodge it turned out that the scant detail on the website wasnt accurate, there was not a fully equipped kitchen (no dishwasher), there was not a separate living room (its actually the hallway), the lodge is a long walk down a dark uneven lane from the hotel and its beside a very loud and noisy road. The bathroom is downstairs and absolutely freezing, you have to walk through the kitchen (which doesnt have blinds and is beside the road) to use the shower. The cleanliness of the house left a lot to be desired, there was a lipstick stain on one of the glasses and the windows were covered with cobwebs and dead flies, the towels had threads hanging off them and even the most basics such as instructions on how to use the heating were missing. We went for dinner on New Years' Day, the food was fine but not worth the price and once again we were never asked how our food was. I ordered smoked duck for main course, it was no more smoked and the veg was hard. Breakfast was nice but very slow as only one staff member seems to take food orders which makes the whole experience very slow. Overall our stay was overpriced and disappointing, but most disappointing of all was the attitude of management which came across as arrogant in their lack of willingness to acknowledge or respond to feedback.…

We stayed in Dunbrody House for the weekend.From the moment we arrived the staff were absolutely fantastic. From the warm welcome of the front of house team, the waiting staff and cleaners, they made us feel nothing was too much trouble. Our room was up graded to a suite which was an unbelievable luxury. The food was stunning. I have a gluten allergy and this was remembered and respected. I had the most tasty gluten free toast cooked by the chef. We will definitely be back again. A big thank you to everyone in Dunbrody House for a wonderful weekend.

This was my second stay at Dunbrody Country House and it was such a wonderful experience. I spent two nights in August with my daughters celebrating a birthday so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed on my second visit. On arrival you are made feel so welcome, Rebecca and Tearena make you feel like you are the only guests. On both occasions the rooms were so comfortable and clean with plenty of tea and coffee provided, the cleaning staff are constantly on duty ensuring the rooms are spotless. Dinner in the Harvest Room restaurant is an amazing experience as is dining in the bar but in a more casual manner - the Chowder is to die for! We were delighted to ring in the New Year at Dunbrody Country House and enjoyed the company of some wonderful people also staying at the hotel along with our wonderful hosts Kevin and Catherine, it was a great celebration. Breakfast is a real treat and you are spoiled for choice, you will not be disappointed with anything on this menu. Walks around the grounds are highly recommended to fully appreciate your surroundings, especially the coastal walk. Thank you to everyone at Dunbrody Country House Hotel - I just can't wait for my next visit.…
