This house was a great base for our family trip to Donegal. The large travel cot & high chair came in very handy. It was cosy and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with utensils etc. and there was plenty of room for us all to eat and sit together. The location was excellent, just a short walk to Killahoey beach or into Dunfanaghy. We all agreed it was a winner. Only complaint was it seemed like a few small repairs are needed - one of the windows and one of the showers.

Location! Location! Location

Beautiful, spacious property in a perfect location. Comfortably snug, a lovely sunroom for reading, living room for TV viewing, ample sized rooms and a light filled landing with views across the golf course. A quiet setting with a good sized garden and plenty of privacy. Lots of parking space in the driveway.

Easter

The house is in an excellent location to amazing beaches and Dunfanaghy. It could have done with a few more kitchen stuff like a baking tray more than one dishwasher tablet and decent knives. The house is very spacious, comfortable and clean. The information from Trevor was very good and he was very responsive when we needed to clarify how to turn on the hot water during our stay. Thanks

Roomy and warm, great location

Stayed Aug 2017 This house ideally located - 5 mins walk to the beach, Dunfanaghy village, and right on the golf course with lovely views of Horn Head and across the wild Atlantic way. The house is very roomy with 4 bedrooms each with v comfy beds. The fire in the living room is modern and secure and very quick to light. The kitchen is well equipped with large fridge freezer, good oven and has a dining table for 8. Next is the utility room with washer and dryer. Ideal. Bathrooms upstairs and down, plus front and back gardens in this enclosed new estate - we had the perfect place to stay. We plan to return.

A perfect holiday cottage

A great cottage, spacious and well maintained. Very warm when using the wood burner. Next to the golf club and 5 minutes to the village or beach. Loads of dramatic coastline to explore. Patsy Dans and the a Rusty Oven highly recommended.
