The Mustard Seed in Ballingarry

​We stumbled upon this hotel in the Blue Book while searching for a small wedding venue. The food photos looked so incredible that we decided to make the trip from Sligo just to try it—and we were not disappointed. The dining experience felt like being in a fine French restaurant. ​The wine selection was beautiful, and the food was equally impressive. Standout highlights included the sole starter and the mushroom & leek soup. The fillet of beef was easily the best I’ve ever had. Breakfast was also fantastic; the rhubarb fruit salad was truly unique and delicious. ​We were definitely the youngest couple there by about 20 years 😂, but if you truly appreciate high-quality food, I cannot recommend this place enough!

As always a superb meal and a very warm welcome from John Edward and the team I’ll come back again and again Don’t miss the breakfast in the morning if you’re able to get up !

Beautiful country house with delicious food and fantastic service. Its dog friendly too.

This place is amazing! The dinner ( which was included in our stay) was (unexpectedly for us) like Micheline star restaurant dinner - beautiful and sooo delicious, starting from bread& butter and till the last bite. We would definitely come back to eat there again. Our room was nice and cosy, the staff were very welcoming and kind. Lovely stay, big thanks to The Mustard Seed House!

We loved our stay at the Mustard Seed Hotel. Very quaint, peaceful and charming.

Fabulous place for a weekend getaway. Amazing food in the restaurant and very attentive service all through the day in all the lovely sitting areas. Beautiful old style grand bedrooms, well kitted out and comfortable.

The Mustard Seed / Echo Lodge was the absolute highlight of our trip to Ireland, and stands highly across all of our holidays ever. The hospitality / hosting was truly exceptional, with members of staff making you feel at home with their natural charm and character. The food was also unparalleled, with different menus each night, all delicious. The rooms were beautifully and characterfully appointed. The gardens were lovely to explore also. I highly highly recommend to anyone considering a visit.

We stayed at the beautiful mustard seed and it was amazing! From the service, food & drinks. John Edward and his team should be very proud of the service they provide would highly recommend
