    Paul was a great host , explained everything to us on arrival, even telling us places to go, things to do and restaurants nearby to eat in , our favourite was the harbour inn , the apartment is great everything you could possibly need for a fantastic few days away , spotlessly clean and very comfortable, Paul even left little treats for a arrival which were a lovely surprise ☆☆☆☆☆ we most definitely will be returning here

    🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We had a truly wonderful stay! Geraldine and Paul are incredibly kind and understanding hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and comfortable. The apartment is beautiful, clean, well-equipped, and located in a peaceful area with stunning views. Our son Adam especially enjoyed his time here, and we are so grateful for the hosts’ warmth, patience, and empathy. We would absolutely love to come back again next year. Highly recommended – thank you again for everything!

    Not a thing.

    Apartment was spotless and very well equipped. Bread, milk and biscuits were provided on our arrival was a nice touch. Views from apartment were fantastic. Paul was a great host, met us on arrival to show us around and tell us about local beaches and restaurants.

    Communication with the hosts Paul & Geraldine was very good, Paul met us at the apartment with the keys & to help us get settled in. Apartment kitchen was well stocked with everything you'd need for cooking, board games available for kiddies, tourist brochures & local information. The complementary milk/bread/butter/chocolate was a nice additional touch - thank you. Apartment was warm & cosy - didn't take long to heat up, comfy bed. Quiet area overlooking a tidal estuary/beach. Free secure parking on-site. All-in-all it was a very comfortable stay.

    The weather was not great but that's what is expected when you holiday in Ireland.

    Very close to the sea and perfect location for a break in Donegal and Derry.

    The only downfall I have is the three days we were there, the lift wasn’t in operation. If I was alone or only with my teenager this wouldn’t have been an issue. However, I had two young children that come with a lot of baggage. I was unable to bring my buggy up to the apartment which would’ve been of some benefit to me with an infant.

    The apartment is lovely and clean with plenty of space for myself and three children. Paul and Geraldine are fantastic hosts and I knew if we needed anything they would be there. Plenty of brochures with suggestions of things to see and do. Private property with gates entrance and felt safe.

    A peaceful place looking over Lough Swilly

    The lift was unfortunately out of order for our stay which made for a lot of stairs to climb with luggage but it was obvious that it normally runs and it was just bad luck that it broke down over the bank holiday weekend Paul assured us that it is normally working.

    The view over Lough Swilly and the Marina was beautiful the location was perfect 5 mins to Buncrana by car, 20 mins to Derry and on the Wild Atlantic way. The apartment was so comfortable it was like a home away from home. We never needed the heating, even though the weather was a bit wet, but it was only the push of a button if we did. The kids loved the Wii and the board games provided and we liked that there was a small carton of milk left for the tea as well as plenty throws to stay comfy on the couch while we watched the tides come in and out the Lough. Only advice I'd give people is to book restaurants it's a very busy part of Donegal!

    Not much to be honest.The bedroom facing the road could benefit from heavy curtains to help block out the sunlight and possibly reduce traffic noise. The mattresses took a bit of getting used to as they were quite firm, but that's a personal thing.

    Apartment was super, the decor was modern and it had everything you could ask for and was well stocked with sugar, milk, bread, tea, coffee, chocolate, dishwasher tablets, towels, toiletries etc. The location was perfect for exploring Donegal by car. This part of Fahan is quite upmarket and very safe, nice marina. Nearest supermarket is in nearby Buncrana. Views over Inch Island from the apartment were gorgeous and very relaxing. Thumbs up for the 3 local restaurants: Red Door, Railway Tavern and Harbour Inn, which we rotated our way through! Geraldine met us on arrival and gave us lots of great tourist information along with the restaurant recommendations, which was much appreciated 👏🏻

    The apartment was well situated within walking distance of the Railway Tavern, with its spectacular steaks cooked on the old train engine. Paul was a very attentive host, who provided us with tea, coffee, milk, bread, cakes and cereal. The property was spotless with an array of toiletries and an endless supply of luxury towels. We loved the balcony with views over the beach.

    My wife and I couldn't think of anything we didn't like.

    A beautiful penthouse apartment with beautiful views over Lough Swilly. Very comfortable and quiet. Lift to all floors (saves your back hauling your wives' suitcases up three flights of stairs) Ideal location to explore Donegal and Northern Ireland. Paul, the owner, is more than helpful.. Great communicator and has lots of recommendations for places to see.
