Donegal Family Holiday

The hosts were AMAZING! We had a small issue we needed help with and they came to the property to assist … on Mothers Day! Very convenient and spacious. Candy and wine was a nice welcome gift! We will certainly try to stay here again.

Lovely, comfortable home, close to Donegal town

This house was very comfortable and attractively decorated, with two living rooms and a large kitchen. We enjoyed the access to Donegal town - no more than a few minutes! While the setting was rural, we did overlook a parking lot for a business next door. There were farm animals in the yard next door who said hello as we came and went. A nice place to stay to see the area!
