Guest Reviews

• Bartosz (10/5): Amazing and relaxing time to ourselves. - The place is ideal for a weekend away from all the social media and people if you need that. There is a very good wi-fi but no phone coverage what We really liked. Warm and cozy space, the place it self it’s not exposed to the winds and storms so it’s nice and peaceful no matter the weather.
• Jade (10/5): A Scenic & Peaceful Stay - Margaret was so responsive from start to finish, and the lodge itself was spotless, cosy, and incredibly peaceful. It’s stocked with absolutely everything you could need for cooking, and the thoughtful little extras in the bathroom — right down to face wash and moisturiser — really made it feel special. Margaret also left homemade Guinness bread and shortbread biscuits for us, which were absolutely gorgeous and definitely didn’t last long! Having them with a cup of tea in the evening was the perfect end to the day. It was such a beautiful place to wake up to, with only the sheep there to say hello. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better spot for a little pregnancy getaway. I can only imagine how dreamy it would be in the summer lying outside on the loungers with the sun out and a BBQ going — we’ll definitely be back! Nothing at all.
• Ewan (10/5): - Absolutely spotless and had everything you would need.

• Carlos (10/5): Dolmen Lodge is gorgeous, peaceful and well looked after and we are so glad we stayed here!! - We absolutely loved the warmth and generosity we felt from Margaret and how much effort she put into making our stay as comfortable as possible. She was extremely attentive and responsive and we are so glad we chose Dolmen Lodge to stay in. The accommodation itself is fantastic and surrounded by stunning views and is easily accessible to sights and landmarks nearby. Thank you so much for an incredible stay! (Also a special mention to your shortbread - it is sooo delicious!!)
• Shilpa (10/5): - The cabin which is located in a beautiful location was well equiped with all modern essential facilities ,it was soo neat and tidy and even smelled so nice. The host was such a friendly woman who welcomed us with baked treats. Overall had a calm and lovely break. The drive towards the cabin itself is soo scenic. Nothing I can think of.

• Markus (10/5): simply wonderful - The location itself is wonderful and has all you could wish for. Perfect hideout for two people that enjoy the seclusion of the location while not giving up on perfect comfort. And meeting Margaret is simply wonderful, too - you are such a kind host and know very well what your guests want and wish for. Thank you! Apart from the sheep being to shy to cuddle with? Nothing!

The welcome information book was really good. Margaret was an excellent host and really cared for our needs. There was nothing we didn't like. It rained for most of our trip which didn't bother us.

• Helena (9/5): Fantastic! - We recently spent 4 days at Dolmen Lodge and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to enjoy the stunning Atlantic coastline. It is within easy distance of Donegal, Slieve League cliffs, Silver strand beach and many other walks and bays, and the cabin itself has lovely views of the surrounding hills- and even the sea. The inside is cosy without feeling cramped, is modern, spotlessly clean, comfortable and has everything needed for a relaxing break. The cabin has been kitted out to a very high standard and it is evident that much thought and care has gone into making it a really lovely space with all the extra touches and details included. No negatives.
• Melva (10/5): We were so pleased with our two-night stay. We definitely will be back again to see more of Donegal! - The homemade Guinness bread is exceptionally delicious. Margaret came by to say hello. All the instructions and recommendations left were easy to follow and very thoughtful. (PS: drop by the egg nest to buy some fresh eggs for the perfect breakfast).
