Tranquil setting. 1 min to beautiful beach with safe swimming. Compact and clean property.Hotel quality white bed linen. Buncrana is a five min drive or 40 minute walk along shore walk.If you want to get away from it all… this lovely house will do it for you.

All good!

"Superb"

9.0

Lovely location right at the beach in Buncrana. The house is very neat and clean, with excellent WiFi connection. One of the few places that allow dogs- we had our family dog with us and found it difficult to find dog friendly places.

Pretty pricey- i know it was Easter, and it is in Ireland but is still find it weird that we paid less for a 5 star hotel in the Capital of Norway ( apparently also not cheap) than in remote Donegal. We love having holidays in Ireland but our common sense prevails most of the time 😃 ( eg we opt for more sun and cheaper instead...)
