EXCELLENT Based on 52 reviews Posted on Roisin Kelly18 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a cottage for the weekend and loved it. Made great use of hot tub, sauna, plunge baths, outdoor pool! Staff were great too. And nearly forgot- pilates/stretch class on both mornings of our stay, included. Have definitely come up feeling healthier and more relaxed.Posted on Denis Hawkins31 December 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic little gemPosted on Sarah Stafford Farnet14 October 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A Truly Divine Experience at The DeerStone in Ireland This place was divine — from the atmosphere and the people to the thoughtfully designed spaces. Every detail was intentional and beautiful. The food, the surroundings, and the sense of peace made each day feel special. Walking into The Shed each day to enjoy the incredible aromas and flavors of freshly prepared meals was one of our favorite parts. The Roundhouse offered deeply grounding meditation and yoga sessions that left us feeling refreshed and inspired. The spa and water features were equally restorative, and the ability to walk or ride bikes through the surrounding area added to the magic. Once you experience The DeerStone, you’ll understand — it’s a place you’ll want to return to again and again.Posted on Jodie Ronan29 September 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Highly recommend!Posted on Madeleine Carroll26 August 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An amazing place relaxing and set among nature. A perfect retreat for a few nights. The private hot tubs and woodland sauna was my favourite. Can't wait to get back.
