  We had a wonderful stay at Bluestack House.

  The remote and peaceful setting was a perfect antidote to city life. The views were gorgeous and many enjoyable hours were spent just soaking them up. It was our first visit to Ireland and the cottage was a perfect base for exploring Donegal and a little further afield. The cottage was spacious and comfy and the owners were so lovely and helpful. A couple of suggestions to improve what was an amazing visit, are as follows: A few additional items in the cottage which would have been useful were a folder with some notes on to how to use the appliances, hot water, heating, etc (we figured it out, but this would be a helpful addition); a drying rack for dishes; spare dish towel; tongs for the fireplace, a starter pack for the fire (there was none on arrival). All in all, a truly memorable visit. Thank you so much to the Boyles, we had a very special stay in your lovely cottage.

  Location of house is lovely and the view that comes with it.

  We have been booking holiday homes for years and this house was the most dirty one we have ever stayed in. We had two 9 month old babies with us therefore we had to clean as soon as we went in. We assumed late check in was due to the house getting ready for us but there was cobwebs and spiders absolutely everywhere and such a horrible smell around the whole house. It could be a really good house it just needs some TLC. Kitchen utensils were filthy I had to clean everything including fan extractor which hadn't been cleaned in a long time and supplied with only one tea towel and a few bin bags. Not really appropriate for 8 adults. Overall not a bad stay however wouldn't return. Which is sad as this could have been a regular place for us to bring our kids growing up.

  Amazing location overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and great views of the local surfers.

  Split level house with bedrooms and ground and upper floor. Living, dining, kitchen area on middle floor with plenty of Windows to take in the view. 3 toilets and 2 showers worked well for 10 people. Wood burner was out of order which was a bit disappointing as it was winter but there is gas heating so plenty of constant heat!! Only 1 slight complaint - downstairs bed linen in 1 room wasn't very clean and looked like it was really old and grubby and we changed it using another in the cupboard which wasn't very fresh. Overall we really enjoyed this house and would consider staying again! Thank you to Marion for her prompt arrival with the keys.

  Redford View is a fabulous house.

  It's large & comfortable & was spotlessly clean. There were 17 in our party & there was plenty of room for all. The bedrooms were all spacious with plenty of storage space & 4 were ensuing. The kitchen was huge & well-equipped. There is a washing machine, tumble dryer & all important dishwasher. The conservatory was a real sun trap. The garden gates meant the kids could all play safely in the garden. The house is in the countryside so it's lovely & peaceful but is just 5 minutes drive from Culdaff & the beach. I would highly recommend this property. Perfect for a large group.

  Lovely house up in the mountains with splendid views.

  Ideal base for touring the mountains on foot or by car, or just for unwinding in the peace and quiet and looking at the scenery. NB 15 or 20 minutes drive from Donegal the last 10 being on single track roads (though little frequented and with adequate passing places in most sections of the road). It's a pity that the DVD player didn't work properly. The property could also benefit from some minor additions such as a list of what can be re-cycled, a washing up bowl, kitchen scissors and shower mats, as we both slipped a bit on the smooth floors of the shower cubicles. :-)
