Admittedly we booked late and were allotted the last room.
However, that does not mean we should put up with a room which smelled musty, was cold and dirty. The dirt was not just one day's poor cleaning but a build up over many weeks/months.
We could hardly get to the toilet for the position of the wash hand basin.
The edge of the shower tray was filthy, as were some of the adjacent skirtings. The chrome was rusting on towel rail and shelf above whb. Cobwebs and dust prevailed in the en suite and room.
The electric socket next to the bed was detached from the wall and left exposed.
We did voice our complaints at reception, backed up by photos taken.
We opted not to take breakfast and check out early.
The receptionist did not charge for our evening meal, which we could not fault, in light of our complaints.
However, we are now unlikely to return to Fernhill nor recommend it to others.

Nice hotel, lovely staff and comfortable room. Easy walk into the village and lots of options there for a pub meal. Dog friendly hotel which was perfect for me. 20 mins drive to Cainryan ferry port the next morning.

Very disappointed.

We had booked a specific type of room but were given one on the lower floor which had a patio door rather than a window. Staff at the hotel, initially told us this was due to a fault with a room door and another room waiting to be cleaned after a dog had been in it. We were also then told that Hotels.com had changed the type of room booked. We checked with them - they had not! The room we were given meant we could not keep the room ventilated overnight which made for less than comfortable sleeping. Whenever we did open the door in daylight hours we were subject to the smoke and ashtray smell of the smokers in the room next door. There was no hotel information in the room, only one cup and no bottled water - which was specified on our booking. The dust and cobwebs around the room were unacceptable and very different from our previous stays. Dinner was exceptional - food and service, but not enough for us to consider a return visit. The staff we dealt with were all very pleasant but no one seems to be in charge.

Weekend Break

Our room was a bit dated and the bathroom really needs updating. You have to climb into a very steep bath to have a shower !
The staff are fabulous and a credit to the hotel and the food was excellent
