Entertainment & Activities

Sometimes the kids just need to let off steam and this has a decent soft play area, bowling, pool tables, arcade games etc., perfect for a rainy day and quite reasonable

A lovely little 9 hole course just over a mile from the Lodge. Stunning views, ridiculously cheap and a real test once you've worked out where you are playing.

There is a superb supermarket in Ramelton called Whorskeys which has almost anything you would need as it includes a diner, deli, bakery, ATM etc. Also try the butchers and barbers, both very good

Food Scene

Belle's Kitchen in Rathmullan is a real treat for the family and we highly recommend the scampi and the panckaes, firm family favourites! A couple of doors down is An Bonnan Bui which is a cafe & bistro which is also well thought of and a good reputation, our pick would always be Belles though. In the main Rathmullan car park is the 'Country Diner' which is a chip van/takeaway which splits opinion in our house but is a good option for fast food or late fish and chip supper, it's open 5pm til late.

The tap house at the hotel does some excellent pizzas with beer from the local Kinnegar brewery. Not cheap and a tad pretentious for some people's taste but no doubting how tasty the pizzas are! The main hotel restaurant offers a far more formal dining experience and is priced accordingly. It is also popular with visitors though you don't see too many locals are there.....
