    “Want to give zero stars.”

    Place was filthy. Sofa and arm chair broken. Tiles hanging off bathroom wall and eventually fell off. Flooring had huge gaps. Fridge freezer all covered in rust. Electrics hanging off the wall. I have numerous photos I am happy to submit. My parents in their 80s would not met me complain until home for fear of being thrown out as hotel and turns only b and b were fully booked. Mr Devenny must be blind if he thinks this is an acceptable accommodation to charge 1200 euro for. Feel very annoyed.

About the location

DUNGLOE, COUNTY DONEGAL

Arranmore Island 7.5 miles; Letterkenny 32 miles.

Up until 1762, entry into the town of Dungloe in Donegal was only possible via the stepping stones dotted over the river. Thankfully, now visitors from all over the world can take the much easier route over Donegal Bridge and enjoy this charming town in County Donegal with ease. Dungloe is known locally as 'The Capital of The Rosses', the name given to this region of the county. The town, which has become recognised as a centre for traditional Irish music, has a selection of shops, bars and eating places, as well as events taking place throughout the year, including the annual 'Mary from Dungloe' festival. A fisherman's paradise, the area has over 130 lakes and rivers and is renowned for its fishing and great sea angling, with several charter boats available in nearby Burtonport, from where diving can also be enjoyed. There are also daily boat trips from the harbour to Arranmore and Rutland Island. Wonderful wildlife can be found in the bogs and reed beds, while golfers will love the variety of golf courses found in the surrounding area. With hills and mountains to explore, the dramatic coastline to enjoy and so much to see and do, this is sure to make the perfect base for your Donegal holiday.
