The purpose built bed and breakfast has become one of the County’s most hidden gems, situated on the edge of Magherafelt town: this picturesque guest house provide hotel luxuriance for bed and breakfast value.

As beautiful on the inside as it looks for the outside, this family run guest house attracts visitors world wide, each met with a warm smile and a friendly heart, clearly translated onto the Lodges ever expanding guest book. The three storied dwelling combines the classic with the modern with each bedroom individually equipped with pine furniture, widescreen plasma TVs with Sky, wireless broadband as well as first class Neutrogena toiletries.

Guests even have the choice of high standard pressurised showers or a deluxe Jacuzzi spa bath in their en-suites rooms. I think you’ll agree that most hotels would struggle to keep up with Brooke Lodge’s divine standards.

Martina and Eamon O’Neill, proprietors of the gorgeous four year old house, say their aim is to make sure all their guests have a pleasurable and memorable stay, and with chef Martina’s exquisite menu of offer, guest will definitely be coming back for more.

(We create all our menus from local farm fresh products and try to stay as organic as we can. I believe that food is as important in your stay as is a great room so food here at Brooke Lodge is a big priority.)

Since opening the doors in February 2004m Brooke Lodge has exceeded all of the couple’s expectations as well as the country tourist’s boards. Martina says: (This house was a dream to build and over the last four years it ahs exceeded all of our expectations.

At the moment we have visitor occupation of 80-90% every month, which greatly over takes the tourist boards average of 30-40%. And as the saying goes you are only as good as your last customer, and for us just having one person coming though the door time and time again does it all for me).

"Martina & Eamonn are very welcoming and friendly, the accomodation is contemporary, comfortable, spotlessly clean, the showers are superb, and the food is fantastic" SK Scotland
