Dragon House Reviews

We absolutely loved our time at the dragon house! They were so accommodating and for such a large group with different needs such as kids, dogs, pregnancy etc we all felt catered for! We cant wait to return!
We were delighted with Dragon House and unique in our experience. We felt as though we were staying in a cross between a pub and a hotel. The bar and the pool room provided excellent entertainment for the wide range of ages in our party. There was plenty of outdoor space for eating and playing games. It would be very helpful if a washing machine could be installed as we were a party with small children staying for a week.
