Summary: Room was quite basic but comfortable ...BUT...did not have any chair/s to sit on; did not have any refrigerator; the restaurant supposedly operating, was closed all the time; there were no staff on premises and Wotif did not respond to messages. A Zombie establishment in a pretty location.

Summary: The remote check in process was easy. The room smelled of cigarette smoke and mildew. The carpet was stained but clean, the bed was worn down. This property could use an update. The restaurant is not managed by the same company and wasn’t open when we were there.

Summary: I did not receive my check-in information until a few hours before check-in time and after emailing the hotel. This was quite disconcerting. The fact that it is a self check-in process was perfect. The room was clean and comfortable. The pillows were too soft for my liking. The only toiletries in the bathroom were 6 or 8 small bottles of shampoo and a bottle of hand wash. Some shower gel would have been nice. Overall a good stay. It was lovely lying listening to the water when we opened the windows.

Summary: The location was beautiful, and the restaurant associated with the lodging was excellent. We had some problems with the toilet, but the owner called a repair person right away. In the morning, the Internet was down. It happens.

Summary: This property was very basic. We didn’t realise it was only air b no breakfast. Until Saturday morning. We wouldn’t have booked it if we had known. Code for doors, code for key.

Summary: 2nd stay here. No staff at all, works through messaging. Both times, it's been clean and we've slept very well. Very quiet hotel. Lovely view of the water. Comfy bed. Kids enjoy it.

Summary: Overpriced for the fact the accommodation doesn't include breakfast facilities on site and not even a fridge provided in the room. They recommend a lovely place in town for breakfast which is great...if your stay coincides with it being open. Really over priced,for what you get. Views are top notch but with no Aircon we ended up needing to keep the curtains closed most of the time to try reduce the heat of the room. A radiator was on blazing out heat in the hall way.....really was not needed!

Summary: Splendid location on the edge of Lough Swilly with view from room across the waters. Room was warm clean and comfortable with adequate space for a two night stay. Rathmullan within walking distance. On site restaurant was good as was breakfast at Belle’s in Rathmullan. Perfect for visit to Fanad lighthouse. More like a room in an Airbnb with no on site hotel reception or public space other than the bar/ restaurant. But check in system worked ok.
