This place is a gem. The view and area are breathtaking. The house feels like a family home and we were instantly comfortable. We were traveling with our family, which were a group of 10, and we were very comfortable. The view out the kitchen window will have you wanting to do dishes all morning. Instructions for everything and and easy check out process. Rathmullen has a great restaurant 10 minutes down the road. There is also some great sights like the lighthouse 30 minutes away and The Way of the Cross. Letterkenny is 30 minutes away for shopping, eating out and any other need you have. We will never forget our special time here, and neither will you.

4.7 out of 5 average rating, 27 reviews8 months ago

Sinead was an excellent host, helpful, responsive and friendly. The location is simply stunning. The house was beautiful. It was modern and the best thing is that it is spacious. We were a big family and booked 2 houses and there was so much space in the rooms but also in the living areas.The kitchen was really well stocked. It was the perfect find for us. It is on a hill with stunning views. The only problem was that we did not stay long enough - would love if our logistics allowed us to stay for more than 3 nights. Cannot recommend it highly enough. Would love to return. x
