“There were an abundance of beautiful beaches to discover, mountain hiking and cycling and an unforgettable boats trip on which dolphins joined us to play around the boat.”

The house had all you could wish for, wonderful views, a very well equipped kitchen and lots of space for all of us, with quiet corners for the ones who needed to do some work as well. My morning cycle around Malin Head before breakfast was beautiful, so tranquil, stunning landscape, views and the wonderful scent of blossoming heather in the air. If I could have one wish before we come back it would be if the double bed in the room with the ensuite toilet could be changed to a little more upmarket model. But that is really the only wish I would have. And we will most certainly be back!
Mr Kupka September 2019

“Beautiful location and great views.”

Well stocked kitchen. Helpful check in person. A very comfortable stay. Would certainly stay there again.
Mrs Roy September 2019

“This is a lovely property.”

Ideally located for a relaxing break away, good aspect but the interior of the property is looking a little tired and would benefit from freshening up.
Ms Sheehan September 2019

“The house has amazing views and is very comfortable.”

.. essential for a holiday where the weather is variable. I spent a long time searching for a place like this and was delighted that it is even better in reality.
Mrs Ryden August 2019

“Danes like REAL coffee!”

! We really missed, something so simple as a coffee machine or caffetier which would have made our coffee brewing much easier. A gas lighter for tea lights for "hygge". EU transformers for duffers like us who left them at home! Unfortunately we had awful weather and the fantastic view from the house only revealed itself a couple of times. If and when you see it, treasure it and take some photos, because it is a wow factor.

We are delighted that you generally enjoyed your stay in West Town and in particular, that you appreciated the wonderful views. It is always a shame when there is a prolonged period of bad weather and we hope this did not mar your experience too much. References to the lack of coffee-making facilities are surprising, as the last time these were checked the house was equipped with a Cafetiere and a large espresso pot. If one or both is missing, we are sorry for your inconvenience and please rest assured that these will be replaced. Thanks also for pointing out that the lights above the cooker needed to be replaced. It is really important that we find out issues such as this as soon as possible. This particular issue would have been attended to more quickly had you first contacted the Property manager rather than contacting the owner through Hogans. Many thanks for your feedback, which is appreciated. Owner relations

“The cottage is situated in a beautiful part of the world.”

The view from the cottage is spectacular with the added bonus of the there being so much wildlife to see. Kestrel, Sparrowhawk, Hen Harrier, Buzzard, Harbour Porpoise, Seals and Dolphin all seen from the garden. Malin Head and the surrounding areas are a fantastic places to explore. The cottage itself was great and comfortable. It has the potential to be upgrade to a higher star rating and we would thoroughly recommend staying here.
Mr Haveron June 2019

“The house was very suitable for all our needs.”

The view from the living room, dining area and kitchen we will never forget.The weather was brilliant which made our site seeing great. I would recommend the Innishowen area of Donegal to everyone.
Mr Fletcher June 2019

“This place is a treasure both in its location and its level of comfort and cleanliness.”

The bad reviews by some people are unjustified nit-picking claptrap, typical of social media.
Mrs Laissus April 2019

“Beautiful views from the window.”

Lots of space in the house, Really lovely area to explore We found the kitchen a bit grubby, oven not clean, cupboards, drawers. Didn't seem to be any cleaning products to clean, ie bathrooms, w.c. Couldn't find a hoover. Didn't stop us having a lovely holiday
Ms Connell April 2019

“The views from this cottage are AMAZING!”

It is pretty remote, but the views are worth the drive. Very well stocked with all the items we needed to cook & clean. The cottage itself was beautiful and comfortable. We would stay again!

“Lovely view and house but could do with a good clean could also do with a few things fixed i.”

E.. toilet seats
Mr Walker December 2018

“Owner a little unfriendly and passed a comment on keeping house as we found it to my youngest son.”

As there were 4 of us all male. But how we found it, was broken toilet lid, toilet roll holder ripped off wall. Towel rail half pulled off wall. Chewing gum on settee and rug. 2 toilets unuseble as blocked. Would I stay in that house again. No.

Many thanks for your valuable feedback, we are very disappointed that one of our properties has seemingly let us down and not provided you with the experienced that we had hoped for. We will be contacting the owner of this property shortly regarding the points you have raised. If need to contact us then Our lines are open 7 days a week from 9am until 7pm Owner relations

About the location

MALIN HEAD, COUNTY DONEGAL

Carndonagh 8 miles; Culdaff 10 miles; Ballyliffin 14 miles; Derry 33 miles.

Malin Head on the Inishowen Peninsula is famous for being the most northerly point in Ireland. It is home to some of Ireland’s most beautiful rugged coastline and stunning sandy beaches, which together provide ample fishing opportunities and a haven for birdwatchers, artists, photographers, walkers and golfers. The picturesque area has even been taken advantage of and used as one of the filming locations for Star Wars. Take a walk up to Banba's Crown, the most northerly headland in Ireland, and take in the spectacular scenery and stunning views, which on a clear day, stretch for miles around. A walk around Malin Head is just over five miles and takes a little over two hours so why not stop off for a refreshing drink at Ireland’s most northerly pub and enjoy the views? Only a short drive away lies Balyliffin with a beautiful beach and two world-class championship links golf courses, while Inishowen has five golf courses set amongst stunning scenery. The Famine Village on Doagh Island near Ballyliffin is open all summer and attracts thousands of visitors. A day trip for all the family to enjoy is the traditional walled city of Derry; discover a part of Ireland's history and heritage in St. Columb's Cathedral, tour the walls and enjoy the Tower Museum. With all of this plus pubs, restaurants and shops to enjoy, there will be something to keep everybody occupied.
