Beautiful location overlooking the ferry and stunning Lough Swilly — the setting is truly lovely.

The house itself was great but we had a few issues. There was a power cut that highlighted both fire alarms were not working (no batteries and expired alarms), they were fixed after two days. The hair dryer didn’t work either, the housekeeper kindly lent hers. No locks on bathroom doors. It would have also been nice to receive a welcome note. Lovely stay overall.

I had a fantastic 2 nd stay in 3 Coastguard cottage-what a beautiful house and really amazing location- the house had everything-super comfy beds, lovely linen and towels.

Great coffee maker and the place was extremely clean and comfortable- I might suggest a little welcome pack in the fridge as I had travelled from Cork and would have loved some bread milk and maybe cheese...rather than having to shop after a long trip. All sai, its one of the best houses I ve holidayed in and intend coming back !

My wife, daughter & I really enjoyed our stay at 3, Coastguard Station and Rathmullan in general.

The cottage is in first class condition and very well equipped and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others or to stay there in the future if we holiday in County Donegal again.
