Our stay at Springkell was a highlight of our trip. The grounds are beautiful, the staff were amazing, and it was peaceful and quiet. The breakfast was also quite good. For people traveling from the US who are users of Google maps for directions, I suggest avoiding the Google maps directions to get to sprinkell. We were taken on a roundabout way that ended up with us on a very rudded gravel road as it was getting dark. We were there for only one day, and I wish that we could have stayed longer.

Hall hotel and popular wedding venue.

Lovely gardens and views. Popular wedding venue. I used Room 1 due to temporary incapacity perfected for disabled person. Spacious room and bathroom. Steps into Hall so wheelchair occupants may be challenged. Food good quality and tasty. WIne seemed to be 29.95 but can purchase by the glass. Well stocked bar. Good smart TV
