Derg Valley Apartments

Beautiful apartment, great location. We'll equipped and comfortable. Heather was a lovely lady and very helpful. Hoping to stay again.

Nothing

Location was ideal for us as we have family in the area. Easy to find, no problem parking right outside front door. Cosy lounge, well equipped kitchen area. Spacious double bedroom. Host provides Towels for bathroom, which has a shower, also Tea Towels and a towel to use in kitchen with washing up sponges and kitchen roll. Would certainly stay again

There wasnt anything we didn't like. A suggestion would be a throw on each settee for an evening when cosying in front of tv.

Heather had called us a few hours before our arrival to tell us that she had let the door open. The keys were on the table. That's easy. The accommodation was very clean. The shower was very nice. Beds were very nice. Very nice parking space. At walking distance to three (!) super markets. In a drawer we found some (dated) tourist information. We learned that there were some scenic drives in The Sperrins and really enjoyed the South Scenic Tour, which was really good waymarked with large signs. That was a day well spent.

We had the top apartment for three nights during one of the hottest weeks in August 2022. On arriving all windows were closed and is was very hot in there. Opening the windows did not do much because you can't open them fully. We couldn't leave them open during the night to cool down the apartment because there was LOTS of noise coming from the two bars/Inns close nearby (about 50-100 meter). As it was hot everybody at those inns/bars was outside in their garden/on the street. They had lots of fun and laughed and screamed and did whatever drunk people do. Three nights in a row... So we didn't sleep well because it was way too hot in the sleeping rooms. This is not the hosts fault, but it is something to consider if you want to book these apartments in the summer time. The kitchen: there are quite a lot of kitchen cabinets. On each door there is a list of its content (number of plates/glasses....). The lists don't correspond with the contents. The electrical fireplace functions, but it's old and consumes lots of electricity. The location: Castlederg is a very, very dull place. Just a plain uninteresting village in the middle of nowhere. Which should not be of any problem if it weren't for some guys that fought their boredom with races down the streets with their tuned BMW/Audi/Subaru's with open backfiring exhausts... Did I mention we didn't sleep well?

Location was ideal and secure parking was excellent. 1 Bedroom apartment was spacious and 3 bedroom apartment was incredible size. Both apartments had lovely little touches like tea, coffee, sugar and some toiletries provided. Host was very friendly and attentive.
