The winners were announced last month.Lough Dan House is situated over 1000 feet up in the Wicklow Mountains on an eighty-acre hill farm, overlooking Lough Dan, the largest natural lake on the east coast of Ireland.

An award was made to the best hotel, guesthouse, B&B and self-catering property in each region. All Gulliver Ireland properties were evaluated on the basis of their online sales management, which included criteria such as room availability, allocation, competitive pricing and property information.

Announcing the winners, Dr Stewart Stephens, Managing Director of Gulliver Ireland said, “This year’s award winners clearly demonstrated a profound understanding of the importance of online marketing.”
