The Lawrence is absolutely astonishing. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave they treat you like family! A very family orientated business. The aesthetic and style of the hotel room I stayed in was fabulous. Staff are delightful. Bathroom had a sewing kit which I thought was very cute. 10/10 stay!

Hotel was fabulous and so unique. Beautifully decorated. Breakfast the next morning was so fresh and absolutely delicious. Elizabeth was so lovely to deal with and helped to sort a taxi for us back from a wedding. Such a lovely stay at The Lawrence.
Absolutely fabulous. Elizabeth was so friendly and went out of her way to make us feel welcome. We were attending a wedding in Clonabreany House not far away and gave us use of extra free room to get ready. Breakfast is fab! Highly recommend
