The Drumbeg Hotel is located in a remote location of the Drumbeg loop. There is a parking lot across the street for guests. Sheep roam freely on the road, as does a resident evening stag. The couple who run the hotel do it alone. There is an in-house restaurant as well as a bar, so one can relax with a drink if one chooses to. One must pick a time for dinner and breakfast, as they can only accommodate so many people at a time with just the two of them acting as cook and waiter (and hotel concierge). There are several choices on the menu for dinner, and the meal was delicious and very reasonably priced. I chose the Brie & Beetrrot Tart with Kale pastry, fries, and roasted vegetables that included cherry tomatoes and broccoli. They also have a full bar that they run for patrons as well, so one can enjoy an evening cocktail, beer and/or wine. The hotel was super clean. We stayed in Room #2 on the ground floor. It was small and had 2 twin beds. The view out the back was of an unattended garden with pots strewn about, so there really wasn't much to feast one's eyes on. We could open the window for some fresh air, but not too far. Despite being quite small, there was a hostess tray with a tea kettle and all of the amenities as well as packaged cookies. There were plenty of outlets with the addition of a special extension to accommodate electronics. There was a flat screen television, but we never turned it on. The electric shower was small, but did the job. One must remember to turn on the switch which is located outside of the bathroom. The bathroom was definitely outdated, but certainly quite functional. Included with the room was a hair dryer, all-in-one body/shampoo and hand soap. The mattresses on the bed were extremely soft, and we both laughed when we sat down on them, because we kind of fell into them. But despite that, I did not have difficulty sleeping, and I'm used to a rather hard mattress. Wi-fi was very strong with a password. Breakfast was included in the room rate and there were several choices. I chose yogurt with fruit, avocado toast with cherry tomatoes, feta and poached eggs. Presented beautifully and quite tasty. We did enjoy our stay. It was quite different than our usual Scottish experience, but definitely entertaining. Being off the NC500, this is the perfect spot to stop when traveling along the Drumbeg loop.
