Widoki, lokalizacja domy niesamowita. Bardzo duża kuchnia, dobrze wyposażona. Zapach płynu do płukania na pościeli we wszystkich pokojach.
Brakowało jednego porządnego noża do krojenia. Nic więcej.
Had a fantastic stay at Eileen’s College over the New Year. The cottage was spotless and incredibly well equipped — from the fully stocked kitchen to fresh towels, plus plenty of logs and coal for a cosy fire in the evenings, even though the heating was excellent on its own. The location was ideal for exploring Slieve League, An Port, and the many stunning walks and hikes nearby.
4 ladies sharing for hiking trip. Two bathrooms, lots of hot water. V spacious house. The kitchen had everything you needed. House was spotless, comfortable beds. Would book again and highly recommend
Responsive host. Very clean. Quiet location which suited our visit well.
A sign to say it was Eileen's Cottage would have helped on arrival.
Situation tout à fait exceptionnelle dans le Donegal dans un environnement magnifique ; la maison est très conçue avec des chambres bien réparties et des salles de bains et toilettes en conséquence ; petit commerce dans le village qui permet de subvenir sans problème à nos besoins . Les ballades en voiture vers les plages et les routes vers Ardara sont vraiment très belles.

Peaceful location .Great place to unwind . House had everything you need for a comfortable stay . We only stayed 2 nights but would happily book again in the future for a longer stay . Majella was really helpful . We were unsure of how to get to the house but a quick phone call from the local pub and she came out to show us the way . Also organised a taxi for a takeaway .
Loved the quiet location, very peaceful and great views. Close to the beach too which was nice and quiet
Everything. Size is perfect , location is perfect ,host was perfect, loved it so much. Everything supplied you need . Host has definitely gone above and beyond .

Great country cottage in rural Donegal! Wonderful views of the countryside from every window of this charming cottage. Quiet and peaceful with no sound but the sheep. We found it spacious and comfortable for our party of 3. Good central heating system and a wood burning fireplace in the den. Well equipped kitchen with plenty of dishes and cookware. Lots of sheep! We loved it!
Water pressure was low. Very rural so bring enough supplies! The beds were a bit uncomfortable for a couple of our party. Watch your head when bending over the stove it's easy to bang your head on the exhaust hood! Other than that, it was exactly what we were looking for!
Lovely comfortable clean cottage in a beautiful place. Very well equipped. Very peaceful with just the sheep for company! Large wood/peat burner which is great on a wet, misty evening. Cottage is cosy and warm. Lovely place to stay.
Cottage is a bit remote and we found it hard to find as phone signal and satnav kept dropping out - mountains all round - but a phone call to Majella soon got us sorted as she kindly sent her brother out to us and he led us to the cottage and once we had our bearings, we were fine for the rest of our stay. Be aware that on Google maps, when putting in Eileen's Cottage, it keeps changing destination to Ellen's Cottage in a different place!
Excellent location. Its a hidden gem surrounded by mountains. If you arrive after sunset, don't be scared, you will love the sunrise and morning time. All rooms, bathrooms and kitchen were clean. Enough utensils were available in the kitchen.
Beds were little uncomfortable but manageable since someone would sleep only for a couple of nights. Less water pressure in the electric shower in the bathroom with bathtub.
The cottage is so beautiful and has everything you need for a self catering accommodation, the views surrounding us was smoothing and peaceful. looking out to valleys and sheep while having breakfast was amazing. The host Majella is a lovely lady and lives close to the cottage. I really hope to return with my little family in the near future.
It would be hard to not like anything about this cottage and its surroundings
The location was stunning, with breathtaking views from every window. We had all the facilities we needed for a very comfortable holiday. It was a great base for exploring the area. And the area is amazing!
The situation with the hot water was a bit confusing, but once you let it run for a few minutes, it's fine.
Very clean and cosy
No Internet connection
Very clean with a perfect remote location for exploring west Donegal
Mattresses were not comfortable after a long day out exploring.
Beautiful area, peaceful and remote
bed could be more comfortable
Eileen's cottage is very well equipped spacious and comfortable. The location is very scenic, tranquil and remote. A good spot for visiting the beautiful areas of South Donegal with stunning attractions close by.
Wifi was a bit poor. In the locality.
The cottage is located in amazing mountainous scenery with beautiful drives along the way. The cleanliness was next to none. There was a welcome folder with information on how to get things done around. Also, there was information literature about Donegal, things to do, and its history, which was amazingly helpful. The proximity to beautiful tourist attractions is great. The communication with the host Majella was great, and the facilities to make our stay homely were great
The Internet reception wasn't great, but that is understandable and wasn't a huge inconvenience
This is a gorgeous cottage close to Slieve League and other attractions. We used it as a base for our trip in Donegal. Majella is a really nice host and everything was set up perfectly. We could get the keys and just go in and everything we needed for they stay were available. Cleaning could be a tad bit better but it was not a big issue (some touch needed especially to the cupboards with pans). The internet connection is weak and it is understandable (it is not that they have fiber in front of the house but they did not connect) since it is a mobile modem and weather, etc. affect it. I would suggest to get offline versions of anything you need before going but there won't be huge issues with Whatsapp and such.
A bit more attention to some parts of cleaning.
Spacious and peaceful spot
Internet connection dropped one day but possibly the weather was a factor.
Spotlessly clean and a very comfortable cottage! Had everything we needed for our weekend stay. Beds were comfy, we had a great sleep as it was so peaceful! It was lovely listening to birds and sheep in the morning rather than traffic! The view from the kitchen was just stunning. Although the cottage is very rural (beautiful surroundings) it is only 20 minutes to glencolumbkille beach, 30 minutes from killybegs, perfect for exploring those areas!
Leaving! 3 nights just wasn't enough
