    The hotel is a bit out of the town centre, but perfectly fine for car drivers - once you get used to the multi level one way system! Buncrana is well placed for touring North Donegal County and visiting Derry/Londonderry City nearby in N. Ireland, to where there are no travel or border restrictions. Thought the local ferries were a bit expensive for cars. The local attraction "Wild Ireland" situated near Burnfoot was well worth a visit. And a visit to Ireland's most northerly point, Malin Head, is a "must do" too. Be advised that the famous Slieve League Cliffs are over 100km from Buncrana.

    Family break: 2 adults & 2 children. Loads to do, loads of activities and loads to see. The kids preferred Donegal to our week in Spain earlier this yr. The area is beautiful with lovely beaches nearby and loads of things to visit. We will definitely be back soon.

    The house was ideal for a large family group.

    The house was ideal for a large family group. There were plenty of baths and showers in the house. The house has a great view. Apart form a few very minor things we were very satisfied. There is beautiful countryside, excellent beaches, and places of historical interest within easy reach of Buncrana.

    A visit to Dunree Fort is worth a visit.

    A visit to Dunree Fort is worth a visit. We didn't visit the museum but did some of the walks which were spectacular. We also ate in the little cafe on site which was very good indeed. Coffee in particular! Buncrana town is lovely, plenty of shops, bars and cafes. Its a one way drive system. We ate at Tank and Skinnys - just coffee and cake, but the food going to other tables looked delicious - we'll definitely be back.

    The apartment is located within easy walking distance of Buncrana town centre and local shops including a Lidl and an Aldi. Clodagh and her family went out of their way to make my family feel very welcome including adding her own personal touches to the apartment. The rooms and bathrooms were all very warm and comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. We also enjoyed sitting out on her lovely balcony looking over Lough Swilly and the Inishowen Peninsula. We would have no hesitation booking again on our next return trip to Buncrana.

    Very friendly host couple. They got us an extra blanket, because we are not used to share one and sleeping in a double bed. And we had the option to help ourselves to tea or coffee in the morning even without any booked breakfast. 4 lovable cats as a bonus. Perfect basis to explore Inishowen. Not far from Buncrana itself. It‘s a small house and you are practically staying in their living space, but Tara and Catalina very much respect your privacy. Good infos about food and the peninsula. Very good price!

    We were going to Buncrana festival and this property was perfect for us. It was less than a 5 minute walk to the festival site. The apartment is comfortable and very well equipped. The sofa bed in the lounge was easy to erect and comfortable for my daughter. Gary met us on arrival and went through everything with us. All communication prior to the visit was prompt and friendly. We ate in the centre of town before the gig. It is an easy 10 min walk. There was a great pub opposite the apartment also.

    The house was just amazing. It has recently been renovated to a very high standard. It’s bright & modern. It is spotless with all you could need, nothing has been spared. A lovely surprise to arrive to treats & essentials. Host was very helpful & informative, met us on arrival & insisted if any queries to call. It’s probably one of the best houses we have stayed in & we cannot wait to be back.

    Warm welcome from Jason and his lovely black Labrador Peppa. Very comfy bed. Lovely view of the sea fromthe bedroom. Quiet location, and very convenient to Buncrana town, Beaches and facilities.and the heating being turned on for a short period in the evening was a nice touch, even though it was a nice evening in general.

    I liked the setup of providing a PIN number and the room key available inside so no messing about with receptions! The room was spacious and very clean and more than adequate for my family as we have three small children so the single bed and sofa bed were ideal. The location was ideal right on Buncrana main street

    Lovely big property, beautiful views over the lough, 2 minute drive to a lovely beach, and near to pubs / restaurants. Lots of space for the family to spread out in the property and I can imagine in summer it will be stunning having a BBQ in the outside patio area. Heating also worked well.

    They made effort to give us a room with ‘’a view’’…. However, no real sea view as there is a dune with vegetation and busy road in front of the hotel…. Nice person at the reception. Good breakfast.
