"FIves stars for Vegetarian Nut Roast"

10.0

We had an absolutely wonderful meal at Arnold’s Hotel in Dunfanaghy. As vegetarians, it’s always such a pleasure when a chef is happy to accommodate a special request, something we have never experienced before and the homemade vegetarian nut roast was truly exceptional. Clearly made with care and real skill, it was full of flavour and beautifully presented. The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend Arnold’s to anyone, especially vegetarians looking for something a bit special. Also good value for money.

"It was brilliant"

10.0

We stayed two nights in Arnold 's , on arrival we had a very warm welcome, and were pleasantly surprised by an upgrade. The room was warm, very big and very comfortable. We had very tasty homemade shortbread to enjoy with coffee and two large bottles of ballygowan water all complimentary. The breakfast menu was a great variation of good local produce and well presented. The staff were all very kind, pleasant and very eager to please, we really look forward to our next stay at Arnold 's
