Family run hotel

A characterful stay, made for lingering.

The Auld Shebeen is a much-loved Moate bar reborn as a boutique place to stay. Behind the traditional façade you'll find eight individually designed en-suite bedrooms — deep navy and soft cream, bold contemporary artwork, and original features like our black-and-white tiled landing and open fires.

Downstairs, the bar and lounge keep their easy, old-world warmth, while our ballroom and dining hall make a striking setting for weddings, milestone celebrations and private events.

Stories From Our Customers

A proper Irish welcome

Stayed two nights and couldn't fault a thing. The room was spotless, the bed gorgeous, and the pints of Guinness downstairs were poured to perfection. Staff treated us like old friends. We'll be back.

Best night's craic we've had in years

We had our wedding afterparty here and honestly it was one of the best nights of craic we've ever had. The bar was buzzing, the band had everyone up dancing, and the late bar was the icing on the cake. The Auld Shebeen did us proud.

The food was outstanding

Came for dinner and stayed the night. The food was outstanding — proper hearty cooking done right, and the staff couldn't do enough for us. Rounded the evening off with a few pints by the fire. A real hidden gem in Moate.

Wedding venue with real character

We hired the venue for our daughter's wedding and it was perfect from start to finish. Beautiful room, brilliant food, and the team made the whole day completely stress-free. Guests are still talking about the night.
