Moate Lodge

I was traveling through on the 1st of June and was very lucky to have found this last minute accommodation. Beautiful home on a beautiful farm. Mary & Raymond were very gracious hosts. The room was clean & comfortable & the breakfast was wonderful. Will hopefully be back one day.

Mary and Raymond are kind hosts with wonderful hospitality. Beautiful house, delightful and peaceful location, and delicious breakfast. Highly recommend, and wish we could have stayed longer to explore the area!

We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay on the way back to Dublin Port and would definitely stay here again if in the area. Mary and Raymond were very friendly hosts - and the scones served on arrival have to be some of the best in Ireland! Our room was delightfully decorated and furnished. The bed was extremely comfortable with beautiful bed linen and a good quality duvet (not like the rigid, heavy, synthetic duvets experienced elsewhere). We were able to get an evening meal at a local hotel and enjoyed a visit to the Heritage Centre in nearby Athy before leaving for Dublin. A lovely finale to our fortnight in Ireland.

Many thanks Jen and David for taking the time to write such a lovely review. Raymond and I are delighted that you both enjoyed your stay at Moate Lodge.Hopefully we can welcome you both back again very soon. Best Wishes Mary

This truly is a wonderful accommodation, both Mary and Raymond were fantastic hosts and very courteous. We were greeted with tea and cake at our arrival, the breakfast was down-home and tasty. Raymond surprised us with his sweeping history knowledge and was overall great to talk to. The house and its' interior were antique, very well cared for and clean. So, a big compliment to the owners, we definitely recommend it !

I loved staying here. My room was filled with antiques, and was very comfortable. The house is beautiful, and is set on a large working farm planted in barley and wheat. I liked talking with Raymond; he's a very interesting man. Breakfast included the best black pudding I had on this vacation.
