  • "A lovely home to stay in, very clean, warm and tidy ( we stayed mid April so still plenty of cold nights)."

    Eamonn and Fiona very obliging and friendly. The bed is very comfortable and huge (super king size). Great area for walking or cycling breaks. Thank you

  • "A very pleasant little cottage tucked away in the woods but very close to the coast and local facilities."

    The description was not wholly accurate in that the beds were not King Size, alhtough they were otherwise comfortable. There was a TV in every room. There was no freezer or freezing compartment in the fridge which was a felt ommission. Overall, though, we were comfortable and enjoyed our stay.

  • "Really enjoyed the Hidden Gem Cottage, the directions given by the owner were great."

    ,the house was lovely but we had no WiFi which was advertised as being part of the service and paid for. The people in the cottage next door had been given the modem that was meant to be in our cottage and it was shared between both cottages. Unfortunately as I it didn't reach us, it meant we had none. The owner said he would ask the people next door to give it back but we never got it and he should have ensured it was in the cottage.

    Donegal. Easy access to local beaches and on direct route for further destinations. The shame was that we were limited to only a week's stay. Provisions easily obtainable from nearby Dungloe. The owner, Eammon is most helpful and easily contacted. We shall be back! Maura and Peter. Co. Wesford.
