Great location and beautiful view. Host was lovely and left us to it, even provided us with well water(tap water was drinkable too). Heating was great and easy to work.
Only thing that wasn't exactly clear is the hot tub being chargeable.. not a massive charge. 20 euro for duration of our stay if we wanted but due to us only staying two nights it wasn't exactly worth it. The toilet that is on the outside of the property could use a clean but there is one inside the property which was perfectly clean.

The location was really beautiful great views and pretty
In the description there says hot tub but we didn't have one which is very misleading and as the owner didn't mention one I assumed the hot tub on their description is a lie. The general cleanliness was not great it looked like the owners would only give a quick clean, I think we cleaned the property more than the owners, there were cobwebs in the corners everywhere. The bathroom the bedroom and the living area. The second bedroom with bunk beds needs to be looked at maybe a refurb as there is a stench of mould and we could not use it as this would be harmful to our young baby. The layout of the cabins isn't great. We thought we were getting one cabin but the living area and sleeping areas are completely separate which wasn't what we were led to believe. The door in the bedroom didn't lock so whilst leaving the cabin for day trips we had to take all our valuables with us which isn't ideal. The owners dog came down from their property and took a poo on our decking which isn't great as we have a baby and one less area to play. The remote in the bedroom wasn't compatible with the TV and didn't work, we did check the batteries which wasn't the problem so that will need looked at. There was no coffee provided and there were only 3 teabags which are really stingy for a 2 night stay. We have stayed in a lot of log cabins over the years and the rustic log cabin is the worst by far. Fair to say that we will never be coming to stay at the property. I'm really really disappointed. If these changes are made it could be really good but by looking at previous reviews (which I wished I looked at before booking) we can see that they have always had these problems with the rustic log cabin but they don't take this into consideration so I doubt anything will change.

We actually stayed in the Foyleview cabin rather than the rustic log cabin but I cannot review it because my original booking was for the rustic cabin.
We had such a wonderful stay. The cabin is so cosy, we had all the cooking utensils you could want, the bed is very comfortable, WiFi was great, The view is amazing. The hot tub is fantastic, you just walk around the back of the house to access it, really not an issue. I’ve seen some ridiculous complaints on here about how far away it is! The BBQ and the outdoor kitchen facilities are also amazing. Sheelagh and Michael are perfect hosts. Always smiling always available and nothing is a bother to them, genuinely lovely people. We were there 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

The location is brilliant. The views are spectacular and the host was very nice
A few issues here . Main one is that the cabin has 2 doors . 2 separate rooms ,one for kitchen and living other for bedroom and toilet. In the rain it is not ideal to have to go outside for the toilet. I was disappointed by the bed situation the bunk beds are very small no room and to go to the toilet disturbs the person in the double bed. Also parking on wet grass is a nightmare .
It needs a few repairs from use. The button on the toilet is broken and the taps actually turn . I was a bit disappointed as its not cheap

The view is breathtaking and the location is very peaceful. You can sit and watch the boats cross the stretch of water all day, weather permitting. The cabin has everything you need to make meals. Oven, kettle and toaster. Loads of room in front of the property for children to play games and for the dog to run around. Is a rustic log cabin so I didn’t expect much from the shower as other reviews have mentioned but it’s enough to have a wash which is all you need. It’s a lovely little place to explore Donegal and great value for money. I do prefer a self catering holiday as you eat out if you want but also have the option to make a meal in. Well done to the owners, I really enjoyed my stay and I would definitely come back
Nothing. I did my research and I knew what to expect. If a power shower is important to you then don’t book but I can’t fault this log cabin. It has everything you need for a self catering holiday

The view was incredible. Amazing location. Communication and check in were very easy.
Very friendly staff. Warm and welcoming.
Property was easy to find and access.
Great base to explore from.
Shower was fine.
Two toilets in the property makes it easier.
- Nowhere in the description does it mention the bedrooms and living space aren't connected. So having to go outside in order to go the toilet or go to bed is very inconvenient, particularly in bad weather. Also the bedrooms aren't really separate, you have to walk through the double bed room to get to the bunkbeds. Bunkbeds are very cramped, particularly the top bunk which is very close to the ceiling.
- 2nd toilet is in an outhouse / shed. Was fine in July but imagine it would be very cold in winter.
- Property not great in poor weather. Every time you open the door, a lot of water leaks in when it's raining which makes the wooden floor very slippy. End up having to mop up every time somebodys had to go next door to go the toilet. Same visa versa in the bedroom space.
- A lot of the workmanship in the property wasn't great. Loose fittings on cupboards and shelves and the toilet.
- Towels aren't provided. Nor tea towels. We did ask about towels and they provided them in the end but usually they don't.
- You can see a lovely log stove in the pictures but nothing is provided for you to actually use it.
- Property clearly designed for 4 people because if the sleeping conditions, yet the sofa only two fits two people plus one random rocking chair.
- TV is very small
- Heating system was complicated and difficult to work.
- Lots of the kitchenware wasn't really fit for purpose I.e. no filters for the coffee machine, lots of the cutlery was broken, some of the pans and chopping boards were dirty.
- Some food had been left by previous guests e..g coffee and tea but it was very old and had clearly not been checked.
- Lighting in the living space is quite poor - one central light and one tiny side light which is next to useless.

Everything there that was needed for a comfortable stay. Loved the wood burner in the main area. Views were absolutely amazing.
Have booked another stay in June.
Only down side was the lack of power in the shower but it was adequate for a quick wash.

Everything was great but we were a bit early in the season for the hot tub which I'm sure the kids would have loved, but hopefully we will be back and use it next time :-)

Quiet and lovely views, excellent for exploring Inishowen.
Have to go onto the verandah to go from the bedroom to the living room/ kitchen but then it is rustic accommodation, no ?

Lovely massive garden and swings, great for the kids and the dog! Great beaches nearby. A lovely friendly vibe all over in Inishowen. Kayaking, Alpacas, plenty to do with kids.
The shower was very small, and not great water pressure, however it was functional.

Great view
The property is on site with owners and a b&b (3 properties on site). Hot tub was an extra 20 euros and very far from the house. To bring your pet was another 20 euros. Pictures online make the property look bigger and bedrooms and sitting room are separate from each other. Rain kept flooding the kitchen/sitting room and bedrooms.

All of it, first of all the view was unbelievable!!! The location was perfect, we went for a little break and loved it that much we stayed an extra night and the hosts were so accommodating with regards to us they let us park right at the doors as my mummy uses a walking stick, we also used the hottub and it was something else to be fair laying in a hottub and having the view of the sea isn’t something you get everyday, also very helpful with us with regards to mummy needing additional help in and out of it, very nice people, we would of stayed longer too only the place was booked out and we understand why, we most definitely will be back even my 4 year old loved it he didn’t want to leave the cabin lol thank yous for a wonderful stay it exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank yous enough 😊
That we couldn’t stay longer lol
