"This was an amazing stay. Our room was comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, the on-site restaurant was cozy and full of friendly people, and I was genuinely sad to leave. A really perfect base for exploring the Inishowen peninsula. And a note for birders: don't miss the Inch Wildfowl Reserve!"
