    Nothing..... Everything was immaculate, couldn't fault it.

    The setting was spectacular. Everything we need for a brief visit to Northern Ireland. It suited the three of us, larger families might find the living room a bit of a squeeze if wanting to sit and watch TV. It's not what we were there for though.

    The cottage was comfortable and clean. The views are amazing, and the location was fantastic for us. There is plenty to do for kids.

    That I couldn't stay longer!

    The property is in a fantastic spot with stunning views - looking out over Lough Foyle and County Derry. The place was really clean, with plenty of towels and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The house instructions were clear and the wifi was much welcomed.

    Hannon’s cottage overlooks the Lough Foyle and couldn’t be better situated for our purposes of traveling the north Irish isle coast. The property had everything we needed and the owner was easy to contact via the booking.com messenger page.

    Location and views. We stayed with our 4 and 6 year old and despite the weather not being on our side we made the most of our stay. Hannons is a cosy little cottage with great views and can't wait to return in the brighter nights to make the most of it. Everything at hand for self catering and felt at home

    Nothing.

    Absolutely stunning area, the views were beautiful 😍 the house was easy to get to, close to amenities. Very comfortable, everything you needed was there and so clean. We were 2 couples so the layout was perfect as each room was either end of the cottage with its own bathroom. The kitchen and living area were in the centre. Very cosy too, fire ready to be lit when we arrived which was so lovely. We didn't see Aine but I knew I could reach out if we did need something.

    Could’ve been a little cosier with a rug in the living area. The living area/room was a tad small.

    Great location and excellent aspects. Very clean and well maintained.

    Wouldn't change a thing. The place is flawless. The only thing we didn't like was that we couldn't stay longer.

    The house is absolutely stunning and spotless. The view is breathtaking and the house is perfectly situated. The house had everything we needed and the beds were super comfortable. It is easily accessible to everything and the kids were particularly happy that the beach was only six minutes away. It was great for the teenagers that the house had WiFi and Netflix. The kids also loved the fact that they could see the sheep and cows and hear them too. Would highly recommend this house to anyone and we'd have to definitely love to visit again. The owner was lovely to deal with and quick to respond and very informative. Thanks. Nora, Dermot and family.

    Nothing to dislike…

    From the moment we pulled into the Hannons cottage driveway and took in the stunning view from across the tip of the North Atlantic to Portstewart down to Londonderry at the end of the foyle estuary, we were sold…the cottage itself was spotless and spacious with lovely turf fire not that it was needed but hey you can’t beat it for that authentic Donegal feeling…hope to get back soon…had a wonderful three day break exploring the area 10/10

    Smell of dampness in wardrobes and kitchen cupboards , lots of reed diffusers dotted around to try and mask Smell...dehumidifier bags hanging in wardrobes which were practically full when we left Chipped crockery....we removed these in order that owner may decide to replace/bin Ripped sofa....which was also uncomfortable and needs replaced Outdoor furniture dirty, broken and very worn Lots of slaters due to dampness make sure you have slippers or flip-flops to wear

    The location is stunning....and the beds were comfortable
