17.10.12
BUNCRANA'S beautifully
located Beach House restaurant has scooped the
prestigious 'Casual Dining Restaurant of the Year'
in the 2013 Georgina Campbell’s Ireland Hospitality
Awards.
The awards are Ireland’s longest running hospitality
accolades and recognise the best in Irish
hospitality.
Georgina Campbell lauded the Beach House, telling
the awards ceremony: “Lovely views across Lough
Swilly may be the trump card at Claire McGowan’s
smart-casual restaurant, but it has plenty else
going for it too.
"Finding this well-named spot is a joy for a lot of
happy visitors...welcoming signs at the door ensure
that nobody passes unknowingly and, once inside, the
stylish yet laid-back two-storey restaurant and a
bit of banter from friendly staff will have you
hooked."
Georgina also praised the restaurant's head chef,
Peter Cheesman. "He cooks with stylish simplicity
and has an enviable reputation for showcasing local
produce. Everything is freshly made on site and top
quality ingredients translate into very good food
indeed." |
