Perfect holiday cottage

We had a very pleasant stay at this very well equipped and clean holiday cottage. The communication with the owner was very easy and friendly. The surroundings, the beaches and the pubs are very beautiful and we are very looking foward to come back one day.

Home Away From Home

In coming to Ireland, we look for a rental that allows us to feel like we are permanent residents--although only for a short period. This cottage fit the bill. We enjoyed the convenience of location and the amenities within. Our host and her local representatives were accessible at all times and answered our every need. It was a truly relaxing three weeks.

Just a little gem

What a location, absolutely stunning. The cottage was exactly as I had imagined & it came with everything you need for a stay away from home (even a starter pack for the beautiful log burner). The owner gave very good instructions for both arrival & use of facilities. It is comfortable for 2-4 people & I would have no problem recommending it to others. would love to return for more exploring of the area:)

An Enchanting Irish Cottage

My daughter (13) and I had a wonderful week in this enchanting cottage in Mullaghduff. The cottage was very well presented with luxurious, carpeted bedrooms and en suite in each. It had everything we needed. We enjoyed trips to the 2 local beaches, we kayaked over to Inishfree Island with Carrickfinn Watersports where we swam in its magical “infinity” rock pool and we took a trip on a RIB from Burtonport around Arranmore Island. The cliffs and caves on the far side of Arranmore are breathtaking. We were very sad to leave this little taste of heaven.

Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!

What a great cottage! My husband has wanted for years to rent a cottage in County Donegal for a month and just hang out in the homeland of his ancestors. We were so lucky to find this cottage! It was exactly what we had hoped for and more! It is exactly as described. The caretaker, Caroline, lives right across the street and was always very helpful including meeting us at the airport and letting us follow her "home" and then giving us some food to get us through breakfast the next morning. And Maxine, the owner was very responsive whenever I had a question before our arrival and while there! She is great! The location was fabulous for touring County Donegal. You can easily do day trips anywhere in the county and boy did we do that!! Only took a couple of days off. A huge bonus, besides being only 4 minutes from the airport, was the proximity to two fabulous beaches. They are a great place to go for a walk, especially the beautiful Carrickfin Blue Beach which is right next to the airport. I took full advantage of the beach for walks on any day where we did not get out and about! If you like to get in the ocean and swim this is a great beach for that as well. Also, don't miss the Boat Strand also by the airport. Ask Caroline and she will tell you how to get there! We are already talking about returning next year so that should tell you all you need to know about how great this cottage is! You won't be disappointed!

Mullaghduff is NOT a thatched cottage despite the name and the pictures on the website. It may have been at one time but we were told the thatch burnt off several years ago. Now it has just a cheap tin roof. Not sure how much insulation that would provide in the winter as we were there in the summer. My sense is the owner doesn't visit much. While the interior is as shown in pictures and has its charm--more rural and rustic than modern, there were some issues, such as the shower in one of the bathrooms does not drain fast enough so you end up standing in six inches of water, with the possibility of overflow if you shower too long But the main issue is the misrepresentation of this as a thatched cottage, particularly with the inaccurate online picture. We specifically booked this place for our wedding anniversary because we thought it would be a romantic place to say. A "tin roofed" cottage is just not the same thing.

What a gem!

Had a fantastic stay, everything that you can want in a beautiful cottage, Bedrooms were fantastic, all on-suite and bed was so comfortable. Lovely comfortable couch and great log burner that gave the place such a cosey feeling as the rain poured down outside. They have thought of everything, there is also a great we pub just a dander up the road and everyone made us feel very much at home there. Can't wait to stay again :)
