Nestling at the foot of Derradda Hill, overlooking the
famous Ballynahinch River, The Anglers
Return was built in the 1800s as a sporting lodge and is now a guesthouse with real charm. The home
of Lynn Hill and her family, the house has a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere which is enhanced by
the log fires and the many books for guests to browse through. Outside, there's a secluded back yard
with stone walls, a profusion of flowers and well-fed fowl wandering
about. As Lynn says, "If the cockerel awakens you in the morning, feel free
to collect your own egg for breakfast!"
The three acres of rambling natural gardens surrounding the house
_ especially beautiful in May and early June _ provide a peaceful
retreat where guests can paint, read, wander or settle down with afternoon
tea. All the food served by Lynn is home produced and delicious. Given
prior notice, she will happily provide an evening meal or you can book into one of the many excellent
local seafood restaurants. The Anglers Return has
five bright and comfortable guest bedrooms, all with enchanting views over the lake and
gardens. Attractions and activities within easy reach include the
picturesque fishing village of Roundstone with its many good restaurants,
pubs and craft shops; game, coarse or sea-fishing; pony trekking;
windsurfing; golf and guided or go-as-you-please walking in the famed Twelve
Bens and Maam Turk mountains.
