Straleel South

the house andgarden. very homely and welcomng host

there was nothing to dislike

Breakfast was lovely. Amazing impressive views all around, perfect for hiking. Scottish owner was so friendly and nice to chat to, and I loved meeting all the cats. Bedroom was absolutely fantastic, so big and the bed was extremely comfortable.

A bit difficult if you don’t have your own car, however there is a bus which runs from Donegal to Carrick, which is a small town about a 40 minute walk away. This is the number of a local taxi +353 (85) 100 5202

Very nice plenty to eat

The hosts were very friendly, we had a good chat with them. The pets are so cute, quiet, nice and you can play with them. The bed is very comfortable. The house is a jewel. The breakfast is gorgeous.

The bathroom did not have the shower piece, so you have to have a bath. For us it was not an issue, just to let people know. However the bathroom is huge and very well decorated.

The owners were very nice and the breakfast was excellent.

Pay attention to the check-in interval !!! I last minute booked a room to this property, around 5:30 pm, and I didn't noticed that the check-in was available only between 4 pm and 6 pm. The host contacted me about an extension with one hour, until 7 pm. We requested an extension until 7:30-8 pm, and we arrived to the property in this time, the host was there and he didn't want to give us the room, because of late check-in and because he already changed the status of our reservation to "no show". The attitude that Mr. John Emslie had, was really not appropriate and rude. I understood my mistake, but in my opinion it is not normal to be treated in this way as a customer. He was at the property when we arrived, it would have taken only few minutes to accommodate us. It was clearly with bad intent from the beginning, to make money without providing a service (so far, no refund...). It is my first time when I heard about this short time for check-in (4pm-6pm). And please keep in mind, that this is a location without signal, and not exactly located on the website map. Worst, he didn’t even want to let us to use his wireless... Somewhat strange behavior, considering how friendly the other people we met in Ireland were...

Friendly owner. Beautiful location.

Not clean. Floor hadn’t been vacuumed. Bathroom dirty.
