Clean well laid out townhouse, very strong a/c, decent sized kitchen, fridge, and bathrooms. Rooms were clean and adequately stocked. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful to provide equipment for activities and resolve minor issues with the townhouse. Highly recommended resort for groups and families!

What an amazing place. Beautiful view of the lake from the restaurant which also had very nice food. The villa/loft was very comfortable roomy , and very clean. The grounds it self was beautiful with an island like vibe. The pools so nice. Absolutely stunning. Highly recommend and will be returning soon in the near future.

We had a 2 bedroom and it was fantastic has everything we needed. The grounds and pools are great and reception staff. I just wish they had a coffee shop cafe on the grounds of raffertys to get food and snacks. The tavern staff are absoutel horrible I would not go back here, so rude and unaccommodating

Pros: lovely gardens and pools. Cons: very limited supplies in cottage; uncomfortable lounge; inconsistent air con (freezing downstairs and hot upstairs); second upstairs bedroom without blinds; garage not located at cottage; reception staff at check in didn’t explain anything - eg. where to find cottage or that the garage was located further down the hill.

Excellent stay.

The location on the resort grounds is excellent. The rooms are large and have space to put luggage. The main bathroom is large & has a bath. If you have small children- the stairs are very steep & narrow- be mindful of this. The kitchen was large in size- only crockery provided no condiments. The airconditioning seems to be locked on 1 setting- however there are extra blankets in the cupboards. Balcony is beautiful & lot's of wildlife to see. There isn't any parking outside the villa- you need to park a good 5-7min walk away. Again with small children/a lot of luggage this can be an issue. Overall clean stay.

We loved our stay. It was excellent and we will be returning. One suggestion/request...could the heated pool be kept a little warmer in winter? Otherwise we enjoyed the restaurant, loved the outlook of our townhouse and generally we’re very pleased with our stay.

We recently stayed at Raffertys Resort and unfortunately the cottage we were given was very old, with a strong enclosed, mouldy smell that made it uncomfortable to stay in. The garage was locked, so we weren’t provided with a car space, and parking around the resort was quite difficult to find. Communication was awful — I sent several emails before our stay and received no reply, which was really frustrating. The pools were lovely and well-maintained, but only opening from 9am was a bit inconvenient, especially for early risers. There was also nowhere onsite to buy a morning coffee. On the positive side, the tennis court and facilities were great, and the BBQ areas were clean and enjoyable. The water sports activities looked fun. Overall, the resort has potential, but the accommodation, communication, and some key amenities really need improvement.

The setting was amazing, location beautiful but was glad we only stayed two nights as the kitchen was average. It seemed that the crockery, cutlery and pots and pans hadn’t had a good clean in a while and there wasn’t any dishwasher tablets to remedy.

Lovely Resort

We stayed in a 2 bedroom loft cottage. It was lovely and spacious, comfy beds (although I would suggest bringing own pillow). The garden's were lovely and nice pools. The tv in our cottage was in a strange position, ie not in front of the lounges which was a bit frustrating to watch. The restaurant was also being renovated during our stay so no-where to eat but there was a range of courtesy buses available to pubs etc. But all up nice place to stay.

The 4 pools were the clincher.

Check in staff were amazing. We got an awesome upgrade. The apartments are awesome, really clean & have everything you need. The 4 pools & numerous tennis courts got a bit of use (mainly pools) loved that both rooms had an ensuite. Overall definitely would recommend.
