斯莱夫阿尼林酒店

It may be found in quite a remote area near the Irish border, but MacNean House is a destination in its own right. Run by celebrity chef Neven Maguire, it houses a cookery school, bedrooms and this perennially busy restaurant. There’s a plushness to the dining room and a degree of formality in the service that make it a popular choice for celebrating a special occasion, while the generous tasting menu offers attractive, detailed cooking. The finest Irish ingredients are used and there’s no shortage of flavour across the dishes.

Start by enjoying a fireside aperitif in the flag-floored bar of this old 1800s post office, then dine either in the atmospheric original building or in the appealing conservatory. The experienced Chef-Owner uses top local ingredients to create flavoursome dishes that are classic in essence; game is a speciality and sauces are a highlight. Stylish bedrooms complete the picture.
