Gather 'round, dear readers, and let me regale you with the tale of my recent escapade at the divine Glasson Lakehouse. Tucked away amidst the tranquil embrace of nature in the Irish Midlands, this three-day rendezvous promised a symphony of opulence, leaving me utterly spellbound.
As I arrived at the sanctuary of my luxurious abode, the intoxicating scent of open wood fires enveloped me in a warm embrace, setting the stage for a truly indulgent experience. The room itself was a masterpiece of elegance, adorned with sumptuous furnishings and bathed in the soft glow of ambient lighting. And oh, the views! Each morning, I was greeted by the sight of the Lough Ree, its surface shimmering in the gentle light of dawn—a sight that stirred my soul.
In the end it wasn't just the accommodations that left me breathless*. The exquisite amenities, comfort and style, the attention to detail—it was clear that every aspect of my stay had been meticulously curated to ensure maximum comfort and satisfaction. Whether I was savoring a gourmet meal or overlooking the picturesque landscape, Glasson Lakehouse was a haven of indulgence and tranquility fit for a king, or a republic's equivalent.
The in-room provisions at the Lakehouse were undeniably lavish, offering a plethora of indulgences to elevate the stay to new heights of luxury. However, it's worth noting that such opulence came with a price tag, with every snack and beverage meticulously itemised on the menu. From the artisanal chocolates to the top-shelf liquors, each indulgence would add a touch of extravagance to the experience but also add to the final bill. Alas these tasty morsels were beyond the budget of my expense account.
Amidst the array of costly offerings, there was one unexpected exception: a solitary complimentary item—a condom. Yes, amidst the decadent treats and premium amenities, the only thing provided free of charge was a humble condom.
While perhaps an unconventional inclusion, it spoke volumes about the ethos of the Lakehouse—embrace indulgence, pleasure and looking after your health and wellbeing.
So, whilst availing of the minibar would have emptied my wallet, emptying a 3 day load would be a somewhat safer and entirely more affordable affair, should the opportunity arise.
Amidst the splendor, there were moments of disappointment that threatened to dull the sparkle of my experience. The service, while mainly friendly, was occasionally indifferent and once insolent, leaving much to be desired.
There were also occasional lapses in efficiency and communication that left me feeling slightly vexed. Issues with hot water in my room were eventually addressed, but they served as a minor inconvenience nonetheless.
The dining experience, unfortunately, did not live up to expectations. The limited options at the bar left me yearning for more variety and excitement, and the restaurant too overbooked to accommodate me.
The slow breakfast service was a significant disappointment. Additionally, breakfast hours started quite late, residents expected to have time to indulge in a slower beginning to their morning that I could afford - so I missed it on two out of three times, leaving me feeling rather famished on arrival at the office.
In the end, my time at Glasson Lake House was a crescendo of highs and lows, coming together in a journey filled with moments of enchantment and disappointment alike. Yet, through it all, one thing remained abundantly clear: the allure of luxury and tranquility at Glasson Lake House is simply irresistible. With a few adjustments and tweaks, this hidden gem has the potential to shine even brighter, captivating travelers and locals alike with its charm, sophistication, and the inviting scent of open wood fires welcoming you home each evening.
*Now, dear readers, allow me to share a rather ridiculous yet raunchy anecdote. One evening, as I was basking in the luxurious ambiance of Glasson Lake House, I received an unexpected
visitor—none other than a very dear, if somewhat new Grindr friend - acquired some 20 minutes previous.
Needing to avoid the detection of my colleagues resting in rooms adjacent, we engaged in a rather stealthy rendezvous, slipping through reception and tiptoeing into the room in hushed whispers to ensure our clandestine affair remained undetected.
There’s something quite exciting and a little uncouth, attempting to navigate the delicate balance between passion and discretion with a nameless friend in a hotel room that has been expecting sexual satisfaction for the last 3 days.
Amidst the clandestine tryst, my anonymous Grindr companion couldn't help but express their envy of the five-star accommodations, apparently they had never gagged on such a nice dick in such an opulent setting. A compliment for both the accommodation and the host I feel - and at least I got to take advantage of the only free provision on offer at the mini bar...
