Urris Cottage is a delightful, well equipped, comfortable and cozy cottage. If you are looking for peace and tranquility in a fantastic picturesque setting you need look no further, and you will still be conveniently located to travel in any direction to enjoy the many attractions that Northern Ireland has to offer. I cannot recommend highly enough this lovely cottage. A big thank you to the owners for all the preliminary help with our booking. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back. would not want to stay anywhere else. Lois and John StorcDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We like country locations that are a reasonably short drive to interesting places. This was perfect for us. The property is as represented, and very clean, neat. The only problem we had was not figuring out how to use the upstairs shower, which, for the two of us, was not a problem. You can walk from this location up to the top of the Gap of Mamore. You have a very good golf course at the Ballyliffin Golf Club. Southwest Ireland, around the area of Killarney has a reputation as a prime tourist location. Having been there, Donegal County is beautiful and not so crowded with visitors. You absolutely need a car at this location.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

This cottage is everything it says on the tin! Cosy, warm and welcoming, tastefully decorated, with a real home from home feeling. The views spectacular, and close enough to amenities to be convenient, without spoiling the rural setting of the cottage. Nothing was too much trouble from the owners, and prior communications fantastic. In short our expectations were more than exceeded, and none of us wanted to leave. Highly reccommended - SUPERB!!! Ally, James and familyRecommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway, tourists without a car, age 55+, girls getaway.
