Customer service from booking to on the day hire was second to none. Easy to book, easy to communicate with and very friendly and professional on site. Would definitely recommend clear sky and we will most definitely be back to see what else is on offer. Great day out!”

The flat white pulled using groupwork coffee from castlewellan was fantastic and would rival any of the hipster outlets in Belfast. Really nice traybakes and friendly staff.”

“Loved this tea room in the estate, very dog friendly, allowing us to sit in as weather was poor, well laid out with plenty of dog bowls in the yard area, well done national trust castle ward, shame other properties can't follow this great example of how to be dog friendly.”

“Great country pub. Relaxing atmosphere and owner is great craic. Visitors made very welcome.”

“Great coffee and friendly staff.”

“Fantastic coffee but strange opening hours. Listed on the front of the hut that it's sometimes open on days other than Saturday and Sunday. We were able to get a coffee on Tuesday evening but not Wednesday evening. Friendly staff and great coffee at a reasonable cost in a beautiful location mean it's a great place for me. Didn't try the food. Highly recommended!”
