The Olde Post Inn

Gearoid and Tara Lynch’s restaurant is in an old stone building in a neatly landscaped garden which served as a post office until 1974 and, since then, has made an attractive and popular inn. Gearoid is a talented chef and, with Tara managing front of house with efficiency and charm, they make a good team - since taking over here in 2002, they have earned a reputation for fine food and genuine hospitality that draws guests from well beyond the region.

There are several churches nearby - including a Church of Ireland just across the road - and there’s a pleasant rural atmosphere about the place, which has a proper bar for your drinks reception (a piano bar is also planned at the time of going to press) and an old-world style throughout, with bare walls, dark beams and simple wooden furniture; but, comfortably rustic as it may seem, that is far from the case in the kitchen, and elegantly-appointed tables with crisp white linen and gleaming glasses are a hint of the treats to come.

This is a happy ship, with the talent and dedication of a good kitchen team ensuring a meal to remember. And, although not especially luxurious, the accommodation offered is moderately priced.
