Balcary Bay Country House Hotel

A wonderful experience in beautiful...

Liked: The location was truly beautiful and the view from our room was magnificent. My friend and I wanted to meet up midway between where each of us lives. We also wanted to bring a dog and I found the hotel through an online search, so we were not entirely sure what to expect. The room was large and comfortable and very clean. We enjoyed the food, friendly, extremely helpful staff and getting to know other guests. The whole stay was so relaxing and enjoyable, therefore we would definitely recommend this hotel to others.
Disliked: The location on Google maps caused was not accurate and caused both of us to get quite lost once we reached the postcode of the hotel. Independently each of us ended up on rough farm tracks and having to stop and get help from local people. The farmer I asked for help said that people often end up at his house asking for help. it would be helpful if there was information on the website or at booking to explain how to get to the hotel once you come off the main road because, once you know, it is actually fairly easy to find.

Cozy rooms and great location.

Liked: Great atmosphere, fantastic location. Very cozy and spacious room.
Disliked: Ask not to be placed in room 8 cause while the kitchen is working (5pm-8pm) this room suffers from noise due to a aspiratore placed just outside the window.

We really enjoyed the location,...

Liked: Cooked breakfast was disappointing. Location was stunning.
Disliked: The only disappointment we had was the standard of the cooked breakfast. It was sparse, poorly cooked and far below the standard of the excellent evening meal, which we had really enjoyed.

Not as good as hoped...

Liked: Stunning view, lovely friendly staff
Disliked: Probably the food was not as expected not particularly good, unfortunately. The outside space was lovely and had amazing views but let down by a mismatch of scruffy outside furniture. The inside was dated and very old fashioned it gave care home vibes.
