A fabulous cottage in an amazing spot
We were so delighted with this lovely cottage that we’ve already booked in for next year! It is quiet and surrounded by agricultural land and stunning views of the surrounding mountains and sea. It is minutes from a lovely beach that we enjoyed without the need to pack for a full day out, as we were able to walk back up to the cottage for lunch and back down to the beach afterwards. There are plenty of other beaches to explore further away. This property was perfect for our family with two young children and a puppy. We had a great mix of time on the beach and heading off the discover local waterfalls, a petting zoo and some castles. The kids are already planning next years trip!

wet and windy week
The weather wasn't kind to us but the house was warm with lovely view of the sea. The area is remote which we like but the local beaches are not disabled friendly, resulting in my grandson not being able to visit them.

Our week in lettermacaward
We were very comfortable in the bungalow lovely views stags in the woods behind the house, seals bathing on the large rocks on the coast walk past Susan's beach, friendly neighbours great pub Elliott's,handy shop and tasty food in Gweebara bar, great views from the road in . The weather was quite miserable but the views stayed the same unfortunately due to this we didn't get to enjoy Dooey beach as we had hoped,the sea was chilly which made for a memorable swim.

Absolutely stunning sooooo relaxing!
This is a jewel of a property set in a stunningly beautiful part of Donegal. Add to that no TV no Wifi no internet what more could you ask for! This was an extremely relaxing holiday we really enjoyed ourselves so much. The view from the property was wonderful and the neighbours were so helpful. My sister and I were holidaying with our disabled husbands. Maureen Tony, and their family were so helpful even coming up with the one disablement aid we couldnt fit in the car!! Such a nice property in a really friendly place, We absolutely loved it!

Simple place in a lovely location
We had a lovely time, starting with a very warm welcome from Maureen & Tony. The bungalow is a very short walk from the local beach, where we saw all manner of life in the rock pools and enjoyed the peace. Around the corner & a 5 minute drive is Dooey beach where we also spent a lot of time and were lucky enough to see Dolphins. The headland is brilliant and the surrounding coastline spectacular. Dungloe is close with pubs and shops. The house itself is simple, sturdy and warm. The views out over the bay and out towards Mount Errigal are stunning. Perfect place to curl up with a book or two after time on the beach.

Very good value for money
We meet Maureen and Tony at the local bar and it was like meeting old friends,They are very friendly. They took us to the cottage and the view over the inlet was to die for. The cottage was clean and comfortable beds. and the neighbour were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely go again. Everyone we meet in Ireland was very welcoming.The food and the staff at Gweebara bar was great. My wife and I both loved it.

Maison idéalement placé pour qui recherche calme
Nous avions réservé cette maison pour rayonner dans le Donegal, et celle ci est idéalement placée. La maison est confortable et correctement équipée. Peu de commerces à proximité ce qui nécessite de prévoir avant d'accéder au site. De plus Tony, notre hôte est charmant, mais hélas ne parle pas notre langue, ce qui limite les échanges
