Gorgeous Look Out

Le look out is set in a beautiful scenery....just above the tidal sea....where the water comes in or goes out every six hours....offering a stunning view of the white sand spirals left by the water..... The house is warm and cosy and we can see the sea from the lounge thru big windows like screens... Brigitte is a very nice host and put a lot of work and love in this place. She really welcome us with her heart. Everything was clean and lovely. I highly recommend the lookout!

Nothing....there is no buses going there....but you get a lift easily from the people living around. If you have car it's also a nice base to visit the Donegal.

Although breakfast was not advertised we were given cereal, tea, coffee, bread, cheese, jam etc. and use of a well equipped kitchen

liked everything

Worth a trip to Ardara just to stay here

One of the most hospitable, comfortable and gorgeous stays we've had. The hosts were so warm and friendly and have created a space for people to meet and chat together, all while looking out over the most extraordinary remote beach and mountains. It still remained warm, whimsical and homey while having excellent attention to detail. We got the best recommendations of our trip from Bridgit, who was a fountain of great advice and a wonderful person to talk with. If we lived closer we would be regulars.

The View Point by name and by nature

The view from the accommodation is second to none... and really has to be seen to be appreciated. The accommodation is set within a few mins drive from Ardara and accommodation boasts a few car park spaces to the rear. The common room/living area is cosy and has TV, books and a good atmosphere about it. Kitchen area has all that you may need and even a little cereal in the morning. No breakfast is advertised though usually hosts will offer a little surprise in the morning (we had egg on waffle, which was super tasty!) Fridge space and place to store food is welcome. Upstairs the front family room will have a view, the twin room has not. Beds/bedding was good and a good night's sleep was had. An electric blanket is offered for guests convenience and the place is artistically decorated which is a fun personal touch. Ardara is a short drive away with a filling station, pubs and restaurants/cafes.

It's hard to find any fault at all. The room was slightly cool in the morning - not a huge issue at this time of year - and probably the radiator thermostat was moved by a guest

A cozy and well-maintained stay with beautiful views and thoughtful touches.

The view was stunning, and the thoughtful touches in both the room and common areas made it feel like home. The shared bathroom was spotless, breakfast was a lovely surprise, and the kitchen was well-maintained. Clear instructions and plenty of parking made everything easy.

It was comfortable, well equipped, and the view was wonderfully peaceful!

The view over the water. The communal sitting space was inviting. The kitchen was well equipped for any traveler. The different rooms were tastefully decorated.

It was a very windy night the upstairs room was too noisy to sleep very well with the roof rattling. Breakfast wasn’t served till 9:00 and I needed to get on the road earlier so I didn’t have their breakfast to comment on. The parking in the back was tight to maneuver in.

A visit I'm sure to repeat

Adrian and Brigitte were extremely helpful and welcoming, chatty, and prepared a healthy and varied breakfast. It was wonderful to have use of the kitchen at dinner time too. The house is in such a beautiful location, the views across the bay are stunning and the local beach was perfect for a morning dip. The beds were warm and comfortable and the room decor was excellent.

Unfortunately we could only stay for one night!

Perfect accommodation with wonderful views

Everything was perfect - clean, comfortable, arty & wonderfully organised. And the views were just stunning with magnificent picture windows & well placed seats to relax in & soak up the views. Beds so comfortable too. And breakfast definitely worth waiting for - we had considered leaving early but glad we didn’t 😊 Thank you to the hosts for providing a great experience.

A lovely house in a spectacular location

This is a lovely, comfortable house in a fabulous location. The house itself is really well kitted out with all the amenities you need with some lovely creative touches. The view from the living room is spectacular. We stayed with a group of nine adults and the living room views provided a beautiful backdrop for relaxing and mealtimes. The owners were very welcoming and helpful, and communication was very easy with swift responses at all times. The town was very close and had lovely shops with high-quality Donegal crafts. We enjoyed a really good session in one of the pubs one evening. We also really loved the Ardara area and it was a great base for exploring Donegal. We enjoyed listening to Irish being spoken in the Gaeltacht areas and especially enjoyed our visits to Sliabh Liag and the Maghera caves. We were also close enough to enjoy Glenveagh National Park and a hike up Errigal. We finished our stay with a visit to the local distillery where we bought some lovely locally produced whiskey. Ten out of ten for the Lookout and Ardara.

Loved the location and especially the wee house outside for 2. Hope we can book this in August this year. Loved also the easiness that everything was described, labelled etc. It works.! So nice that our hosts were happy to give us a lift into town and collect us after dinner. Very thoughtful

Since we forgot to write a note on the "visitors' book", here we go: among all the places we have bene staying to during our holidays in Ireland, this was surely the best as It made us feel at home. Clean, cosy, with a stunning view over the bay and an incredible care for those little details that eventually can make all the difference and speak about two hosts that really care about their guests. Brigitte and Adrien welcomed us warmely, suggesting us the hidden gems of their surrounding and waking us up with the sweetest of all breakfasts. We Will be back soon and definetely for a longer time! Thanks for everything! Giulia and Federico
