What a delightful stay in a well styled Manor. All the rooms are tastefully appointed & in keeping with the era which gives a warm homely feeling to your stay. Delightful staff eager to help, made our stay even more homely. The showers are difficult to use & perhaps a queen bed to replace the double size would be our only positive criticism. Despite these small criticisms the stay was just delightful.

Quaint getaway

This charming B&B was an overnight stay but I wished I could have stayed longer. Everyone was extremely nice and it was very quiet tucked back in the trees.

Beautiful, comfortable, delicious stay.

Had a lovely stay in the secluded hotel. Beautiful location tucked in the woods with amazing views. Room was very large and comfortable. The restaurant in the hotel served delicious food and they even have Guinness on tap in the cozy bar. Would def stay again!

Perfect Spot in Ardara

We had a lovely stay at Woodhill House. The room was spacious and we selected the room with the garden which was lovely to sit in and walkabout. We had dinner at the restaurant both nights and the food was delicious, definitely recommend dinning here if you are in Ardara. We really enjoyed having a drink after dinner at the adorable bar too. Thanks James for servicing us many Guinness pints. Excellent service!

Sauberkeit war mittelmäßig. Unterkunft war recht schön. Sie hatten eine Cabin. Frühstück eine Frechheit. 30 Minuten auf die Bestellung gewartet. Man durfte ein Gericht vom Menü bestellen. Nach ewigem warten kam dann das Essen. Gegessen hat man in 2 Minuten, da es ein Ei war und etwas Speck oder 30g Müsli… Von allen 4 Portionen wäre einer satt geworden… Wir sind danach in ein Restaurant gegangen und haben nochmals frühstücken müssen. Doppelt bezahlt…

We loved our stay at the Woodhill house. The host was amazing. We enjoyed a late dinner, drink, and conversation in the cozy bar/lounge the night of our arrival. Breakfast the following morning was delicious and the staff was very attentive. The property is older and needs some TLC, but still charming and well worth the money and drive.

There wasn’t much we liked about it. The welcome was lukewarm. The pictures are not a bit accurate; sooo outdated and the “gardens” have not been looked after for decades it seems. The shower was a trickle of lukewarm water. The food was not great. The so-called bar was not a welcoming gathering area. We were excited to leave.
