They said: "Enjoy mussels and just-caught flaky cod with chips at this lakeside pub with views over Lough Neagh, a large freshwater lake.

The Boathouse previously won Restaurant of the Year at the Northern Ireland Hospitality Awards 2022, creating its success as a testament to its hard-working staff.
