Pamela was absolutely wonderful helping us with our stay. Our meals in the restaurant (both breakfast and dinner) were excellent. Eloise provided exceptional service in the restaurant and Kevin in the lounge was both fun and engaging. We truly enjoyed our stay and recommend The Horse and Hound as an Inn & Restaurant to all of our friends and family.

The room was very lovely!! Just VERY small. I couldn’t turn around or shut the door to the bathroom because of how small it was. This is a great place if you’re staying a night and passing through. Would stay here again.

Very friendly pub/inn. The food ( dinner and breakfast), was tasty and a good choice. The bar was busy in the evening, as was the restaurant, so it is clearly a popular venue. Our room was spacious, comfortable and had been recently refurbished to a really good standard and was super clean. The team were super friendly and helpful. Parking out the back was very handy. Definitely worth a look if you’re wanting somewhere within easy reach of Dublin and the coast. Recommended 👍👍

Restaurant, food and staff really lovely. Bedroom was nice but bathroom was poor, needed a lot of TLC, and a bit of money spent on it. A lot of wear and tear, which was sad because if it was given a little attention and updating, could be really lovely. The restaurant was the star of it all… the guests rooms seem to have been forgotten. All in all, nice and okay stay.

The room could have been cleaner floor was dusty. Parking was a bit of a challenge. The bar and restaurant were full therefore no parking for guests. Staff were friendly. Check in was also a challenge as we had to find someone that could check us in. Breakfast was delicious.

Pros for this property are that the staff are so friendly and accommodating. The food is adequate for pub grub. The rooms are bright and clean Cons - The noise from the bar below prevented us from having a good night's sleep and that was during the day as well. May l please suggest that you put a mirror in the bedroom as l was unable to blow dry my hair without this.

This is a good one night stay for a great price. Our room was simple and small but had everything we needed - except air conditioning. Which would have been fine if the window had a screen. Pretty warm in the room on a not terribly warm evening. The best things about this hotel are the staff and the food. We had a wonderful, very reasonably priced dinner and great breakfast next morning, which was included in the price of our room. Shout out to Jay, bartender who checked us into the hotel and showed us to our room and later served us drinks and dinner.
