We had 3 cottages for a week for a large (22 people) family get together. The houses were all lovely; clean, comfortable, well-equipped and incredibly spacious. A few stand-out features were: The beautiful master bedrooms with ensuite and large balcony. The large decking area, perfect for relaxing in the evening. The frankly huge living room/kitchen. And our particular favourite, the loughshore and jetty 5 mins walk away. A beautiful sunset over the lake every evening. Outdoor activities are available at the centre 5 minutes away, there are many fantastic sightseeing trips within an hour’s drive and for peace and quiet just sit on the balcony and chill out. The owners are friendly and very accommodating, helping to make it a wonderful holiday for everyone.

This is a great place to spend a relaxing weekend with family or friends. As usual the cottage was spotless, ready for our visit. The weather was very mild for the time of the year so the huge basket of logs left for us remained unburnt. Because we had stayed at Cygnet Lodge before, and knew how well equipped it is, we were able to travel light. Usually self-catering means having to ‘make do’ or bring loads of things with you but Dawn’s cottages have pretty much eveything you will need. We are already looking forward to our next visit
