After being shown to our room we were provided with coffee and scones which we ate in front of a roaring fire in the guest lounge. Catherine was provides a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere and is more than helpful with local information. Lake Avenue House is set in a quiet location overlooking Templeport Lough but is handy for the many attractions... More

Our experience at the Lake Avenue House was simply exceptional. Set in the beautiful countryside of Cavan Co, we found our accommodations to be warm, welcoming and spotlessly clean. Catherine and Joe welcomed us with wonderful conversation, helpful tips, and fascinating local history..... The breakfasts are delightful..... Tasty and ample! I would recommend Lake Avenue House without exception and look... More

What a beautiful home and grounds! We stayed in this lovely private house for two nights and felt as if we entered the home of friends. Catherine was charming and helpful and spent probably more time than she expected to assisting with us with directions and general information about the area. Our room was a bit small but absolutely spotless... More

My wife and I stayed for 5 nights and wish we could have stayed longer. Catherine and Joe were so gracious. Breakfast was excellent - homemade brown bread was superb. Without our asking, Catherine even had some lowfat milk ready for our breakfast. We definitely recommend this B&B for anyone else.

We spent the last day of our one-week tour across Ireland in this wonderful place and were welcomed with incredible warmth and hospitality. Even though we could only stay for one day, this was an incredibly relaxing time, being far away from big roads and busy cities. The breakfast Catherine prepared for us was wonderful, and we were especially glad... More

We stayed with Joe and Catherine just one night, but we were thoroughly spoilt. Our room was both spacious and spotless and we were treated with home made scones and a really tasty grilled breakfast and home made muffins. We would definitely recommend the Lake Avenue B&B and can't wait to return.
