Pros:

The location was amazing for the view and the beach was a 2 minute walk. The food in the pub was excellent. The room itself was to a very high standard well worth the stay.

Cons:

I couldn't fault this place.

A pub-restaurant with accomodation built on, rather than a hotel
Pros:

The rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable, but the facilities provided were very limited. The property is in the heart of a small remote village.

Cons:

We messaged ahead requesting a dinner reservation. We received a rather curt response that this was not possible.
When we arrived, we were told that we could not be guaranteed a table. As a resident I would expected us to get priority.
We had to arrive early to get a table. They run on the basis that the guest has to accomodate the kitchen, rather than the other way around.
No breakfast option.

Fabulous location and very nice accommodation
Pros:

Fantastic location.
Very clean and well maintained property.
Clean comfortable well equipped rooms.
Large carpark, but mainly loose gravel.
Some hardstanding for motorbike which was welcome.
Would have been nice to have a breakfast available. But not a big issue as there are many places to get breakfast a few miles away.
Location is exceptional! Beautiful and quiet. Lovely beach 2-3 minutes walk.

Worth the trip, we used this as our hub for seeing the sights in Donegal County!
Pros:

The room had an incredible view of the hills and the bay in the distance! The property has been recently renovated and the shower was awesome! The bed was comfortable and the heated towel rack was a bonus! Highly recommend!

Cons:

We did not leave enough time to hike to the nearby tower for the incredible views. Many of the local places are closed on Monday or in the off season, so plan ahead.

Suosittelen luonnonystäville
Pros:

Kaunis majatalo merinäköalalla luonnonkauniissa maisemissa. Kaikki toimi moitteettomasti

Cons:

Ei ole majapaikan vika jos offsesongilla ei kannata pitää ravintolaa arkisin auki. Oma vierailuni osui tällaisiin päiviin, onneksi kylässä on ruokakauppa klo 20 asti auki

Super spot in a lovely little town.
Pros:

The location is ideal - close to the beach as well as to the start of some stunning walks. It looks like the rooms may have had a recent update. The decor was very nice, fresh paint & super comfy beds. The team/family that run the accommodation were lovely; very helpful & accommodating. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent value & high quality. Would highly recommend.
