The Lodge is a restored stone stable-courtyard within the 1000 acres of countryside, ancient woods and lakes that form the Castle Leslie Estate. Rooms feature an en suite bathroom with deep roll-top bath and views of the Equestrian Centre or woodland. Rooms also include flat-screen TVs. A modern equestrian centre and an organic Victorian spa are on site. With its hand-carved ceiling and old oak beams, Snaffles Brasserie is a modern and atmospheric place to dine. Conor’s Bar is a snug cellar bar with roaring fire, cosy corners and great music. The Lodge is a 10-minute drive from Monaghan town, yet is perfectly and peacefully secluded.
