Mooi vrijstaand en compleet huisje op een zeer stille locatie.
De bewegwijzering klopt totaal niet. Er werd een adres aangegeven op Booking, wat leidde naar een wijk, waar niemand bekend was met ons huisje. Een paar bewoners hebben meegedacht, maar konden ons niet helpen. Wat erg vervelend was, was dat gastvrouw niet meer telefonisch bereikbaar was. Na bijna een uur zoeken lukte het wel weer contact te krijgen en toen stuurde zij ons nieuwe gegevens op basis waarvan we het huisje snel konden vinden. Waarom dit niet in de gegevens op Booking vermeld stond was ons een raadsel. Geen goed begin van een verder prima verblijf. Het bed was te smal: 140 cm.
Great bath
Only issue was large roadworks which meant finding and getting in or out of the premises more difficult.
There was a lovely viewpoint a short walk behind the cabin, and it's in a relatively good location for travel.
We were overall very disappointed with our stay. The cabin is advertised as being set in nature, but it sits right on the gravel driveway of a large main house, which felt misleading and lacked privacy. Inside, the cabin smelled strongly of dog, had cobwebs throughout, and the sofa blanket was dirty. The worst part was finding a dirty, hair-and-crumb-covered bedsheet hidden directly underneath a fresh top sheet. Additionally, the heating is locked on a timer with no option to boost it, making the cabin cold at night, and the bathroom grouting had visible mold. Not up to standard for the price.
We loved the peace and quiet. Lovely place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The scenery was magical. We'll be back. 🙂
The view from the bench on top of the hill, the big bath.
No washing up liquid but everything else was there so being very picky
Loved location, views over fintra beach was beautiful, 2minute walk up path behind cabin. close enough to killybegs, instant hot water, had everything that you need for short break. Will be back again.
We booked this property based on its location which was showing it within the the `town limits` of killybegs as we were attending a social event. Unfortunatley the location is incorrect & it is located 2kms from the town in an area that has no footpaths or lighting. The property itself is very comfortable with good bedding which provided a good nights sleep, however, I would not stay here again due to its location only.
The property could do with a little more lighting on site & if the main house was booked out separatly, You would`nt have much privacy due to a lack screening / hedging etc.
The property was perfect for our small family of 3 adults and a small dog. The location was perfect with a beautiful short walk right behind the cabin to look out at the views or to sit and meditate and a 5 min drive to a beautiful beach and a 5 min drive into the town. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay and we were able to order a take away right to the door. the host was very welcoming he was there at our arrival and we had the opportunity to call him if we needed anything.
The bathroom with huge bathtub was excellent.
No ventilation so water was condensated everywhere. There might be a bit cleaner - quite a few big spider webs.
The lovely location Super warm wood burner so cosy Great bathroom with great freestanding bath
Nothing
James was really helpful and friendly. Brought his beautiful dog Lola to meet my dog Oscar.
We think the bathroom could do with an extractor fan as it gets a bit damp after a shower.
Lovely little cabin
Needed some heating in bathroom as it was cold and towels did not dry
The facilities were excellent and the bath is amazing, I could lie full length in it, beautiful views at the trail behind the cabin, definitely recommend.
The cabin is lovely. It is spacious & the amenities were excellent. The short, yet steep walk up through the native hazel & willow trees was a treat for a nature lover & the rewarding view at the end is extraordinary. The cabin is out of the way yet in a perfect area to explore Sourh Donegal.
The cabin is quite close to another property.
Lovely cabin beside Killybegs. The cabin is equipped with a small kitchen with all of the essentials and a great bathroom. We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay here. The property was dog friendly, and our little guy had a great time staying with us!
The couch was stained and dirty, but luckily there was a spare sheet available that we could put on the couch and sit on instead.
Self contained. Kitchenette is brilliant. Big bathroom. All you need for a getaway. Excellent views overlooking Fintra Beach - blown away by this.
Instructions to find property Easy access Very Very Quiet location, great night's sleep View over beach from path beside cabin Wi fi Property has great potential but needs attention to detail to have wow factor
Cutlery, only one teaspoon! one knife literally falling apart Two wine glasses both different size No way to fill sink and wash up Sofa not that comfortable No mention of house along side cabin in advert ( that appeared to be a surprise to those holiday makers too) Need a deep clean behind toilet and under bath Very little information in cabin of local area
I loved amazing views out to the Finra Beach, easy access everywhere - exactly half way between the beach and the town.
I'd really love if the EIRCODE from the booking.com was the correct one =) small inconvenience, but rectified by contact with hosts in no time.
It was quiet and close to the beach. Log burner was great and we had brought logs so lit it all 3 nights! Also having wifi was an added bonus!
Couldn't find a basin to wash up dishes so improvised and used a large saucepan 😂. Could do with new cultery, knives were coming apart and culd only find one teaspoon. But tbf none of this bothered us as we just wanted to get away from stresses of everyday life! Would highly recommend!
