Dunfanaghy: Häuser

We liked our stay very much. It was not as clean as it should have been (floor, cutlery, kitchenware), but that was more a small nuisance than a real fault. The cottage is cosy and situated excellently for visits in the Glenveagh National Park and hikes in Donegal. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay. The furnishing of the Holiday Home was good. The heating should start earlier at 6 PM and last until 9 PM. Even so we liked it there, we found it too expensive.Nevertheless we can recommend the place.

We have been to three different regions in Ireland so far and this was the nicest stay. The McElwee family are extremely friendly and nice people. Margaret and Michael lovingly looked after us. For questions they were always there as a contact person for us. We were supplied with vegetables, delicious jams and scones. A highlight were Michael's self-grown potatoes, which were much more intense flavor than the German. The occasional conversations with the McElwees were very interesting and informative for our upcoming ventures. You also learn something about life from the point of view of the locals. The house was extremely clean and very comfortable. Everything you need is there and you can take care of yourself. A Lidl was nearby in Milford. In the evening you could sit comfortably in front of the peat fire and plan the next day. The house was deliberately chosen by us, because here you live very quiet and a little secluded from the next larger village. Perfect for relaxing. In the morning we share the peace and the coffee with the cattle and sheep grazing in the surrounding pastures without traffic noise and tourists hordes :-). The central location, from which many sights of Donegal and Northern Ireland, from Slieve League to Belfast, can be reached within a day's trip. On and near the Fanad peninsula there are several headlands with beautiful cliff and sea views for hiking. Even beaches are very beautiful on Fanad. Actually, the weather does not play a decisive role. For almost any weather conditions, there are opportunities for things to do and destinations. We will definitely be back again in the next years. Keep up the good work. Your guest concept is 100%. Until then, we wish the family McElwee all the best. Roxanne, Iris u. Achim

Wir würden jederzeit wieder hier wohnen wollen. Es hat alles gepasst: Die Räumlichkeiten, der Garten, die Umgebung. Wir hatten herrliche Ruhe - und konnten trotzdem zu Fuß schnell mitten im Ort sein. Alles optimal.

We stayed at Ballyboes Cottage for Christmas and New Year’s 2025 and were delighted by the warm, bright and cosy atmosphere of the house. On top, we were extremely pleased that Mary, the host, had not only decorated the house nice and Christmassy, but also left a gift basket. Arrival was like coming home!During a ten day stay with 4 adults, 1 child and our dogs all of us were enjoying the spaciousness of the house and the cosiness of the living room. The panoramic and wide view of the house permits to observe the ever changing weather conditions with the corresponding beautiful colour games. The beds are very comfortable, so is the availability of three bathrooms . All installations are in perfect condition. The kitchen is spacious and well equipped, the dish washer and washing machine of highest quality. Mary surprised us with her extraordinary kind and supportive way, her great recommendations concerning the area and her immediate and uncomplicated availability in case of questions.We passed 10 unforgettable days at Ballyboes Cottage and could highly recommend it.
