Reviewed By karenj558

An excellent introduction to the life and work of Seamus Heaney. Really interesting exhibition, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and great local refreshments available in the coffee shop. All social distancing measures in place including one way system and lots of sanitiser but does not take away from the experience at all.

Our family choose this venue for my dads 90th birthday celebration as he had a particular fondness for this beautiful area of the Sperrin s , The group age range was two years to ninety for this particular celebration and it was important that we had easy access. On entering a ground floor, private dinning room, which had a glowing open fire, and variety of fresh flower table decoration we were greeted with a warm handshake welcome from the owners and staff. After a period of settling in we enjoyed a excellent, individual choice, three course lunch. We also enjoyed the privacy of this setting on this family occasion. Many thanks to the owners who’s attention to detail is second to none and we hope to make this our venue for other special family events.
