The Lodge at Doonbeg is a ‘must stay’ property for anyone playing both the fantastic links course on-site and nearby Lahinch, and they have recently made changes to the room configurations to make it an easier place to stay for small parties. Previously there were limited options when small parties were visiting the property due to the fact that a lot of the accommodation was in 2, 3 or 4 bedroom style cottages, however they have recently taken the decision to sell individual rooms within the larger cottages; meaning you can either have private access to the lounges (like you would in a hotel suite), or not, depending on your budget.
To simplify this, within a four bedroom lodge, you can now stay in one of the bedrooms and have exclusive access to the lounge area. Doonbeg would then sell the other bedrooms within the cottage individually to other couples, none of whom would have access to the lounge. This therefore gives you a couple of extra options to either have just an en-suite bedroom or an upgrade to what also includes a very spacious and luxurious suite. These changes simply give you a better experience and makes it easier for small groups to stay at what was already a fantastic five star resort.
