About the host
Hosted by Julie Kee
Hi, we're Julie and David born and bred in Donegal and have spent the last year renovating Rarooey House ready to welcome our guests to this beautiful part of Ireland. We have two children and we enjoy adventures as a family. We love our watersports and would find us either surfing in Bundoran or swimming and waterskiing in Mullinasole.
We enjoy heading to Donegal Town either for a nice coffee or lunch in a nice cafe or a local hotel or restaurant for dinner.
We hope you enjoy our lovely home and its beautiful surroundings. We love the quietness and listening to the song of the birds and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
If you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to reach out! We're happy to help :)
