About this cottage rental

The Oyster House is a beautifully restored holiday home that provides a truly relaxing escape along Donegal's Wild Atlantic Way. Its tranquil coastal setting means the visitor can indulge their love of a life overlooking the waves, where bracing sea air meets the rugged coastline of the Rosses.

A Little Path from the Garden to the Sea
The Oyster House is a beautiful retreat in a peaceful and stunning location right by the water’s edge. With panoramic views over Traighenna Bay, it is the ideal spot to sit and relax on the outside covered terrace watching the sunset, or you can even take a stroll down the little path leading from the garden to the shore. The perfect location for peace, nature and relaxation.

Located Along the Wild Atlantic Way
The Oyster House lies along a narrow winding coastal road that overlooks Traighenna Bay. It is situated halfway (7km) between the town of Dungloe and the small coastal village of Lettermacaward. It is also halfway (10km) between two of the finest beaches in West Donegal - Dooey Strand and Maghery Beach.

Panoramic Coastal Views
At The Oyster House you'll find you won't always need to go outside to enjoy the sea views, as the holiday home is designed for you to make the most of the coast from the inside too with its large open-plan kitchen dining and living spaces featuring patio doors and windows all perfectly positioned to welcome in as much light as possible.

A Beautifully Restored Building
This exquisite holiday home sleeps up to eight people in three bedrooms. All the rooms have been lovingly renovated to ensure the original character and charm resonates throughout while adding modern comforts. All you have to do is relax and enjoy its very stylish interior with coastal-themed artefacts and soft, comfortable furnishings.

Decking with a View
Why not open up the patio doors and head out onto the furnished decking, where you'll find all you need for a relaxing evening meal set against the soothing soundscape of gentle waves as the evening sunsets over the coastline - bliss!. If the sea breeze gets too strong you can retire to the sheltered patio area on the land side of the house.
Back inside in the living area, you'll find a comfortable sofa and a wood burning stove - perfect for relaxing with a good book. There's a tv and DVD player for an occasionally different view! Prepare your catch of the day in the well-equipped kitchen, with its electric oven and ceramic hob. There's a microwave and dishwasher to help save on time.

A Relaxing Coastal Retreat
So come and live an invigorating coastal life with a relaxing and reviving break at the beautifully located, delightfully renovated Oyster House won't regret it!

The Oyster House is a truly peaceful spot with stunning views, perfect for switching off and recharging. The property is spotless, cosy and set up for a relaxing stay, with everything you need and nothing that disturbs the calm. Our host was excellent – welcoming from the start, clear with communication and quick to help with anything we needed. A place that delivers exactly what it promises, and one we’d happily return to.

Great place

The house is very well appointed and the decor is great, which meant that we had a very relaxing and comfortable stay. A super location and outlook, which despite the relatively dull weather, gave ever-changing and enchanting sea and landscape views. The welcome was excellent and the house was cosy and warm when we arrived. We did light the stove which added to the evening ambience, especially with a glass or two of Silkie whiskey from the Ardara distillery! Thanks very much for a lovely short break which was a great introduction to County Donegal.

Our family of six (two couples and two children) loved this vacation home! We enjoyed watching the tide come in and out in from the porch and living areas of this tastefully decorated and comfortable home. We would recommend this to family and friends for relaxing trip to Donegal.

We spent a week in this delightful cottage…..3 generations, 5 adults and a baby. The cottage itself is really comfortable and beautifully appointed. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen / diner is airy and well-equipped, opening out onto the terrace with its wonderful views over the estuary. Everything has been thought of….it is a genuine home-from-home. Location-wise, it is only 10 minutes from Dungloe, which offers places to eat as well as good supermarkets. The area is stunningly beautiful and there are some magnificent, empty beaches within a comfortable driving distance. The entire booking process / management was excellent, with Natasha responding swiftly to any questions. Caroline was great - she greeted us, explained everything and had left the table set with tea and scones. We really loved this cottage and the area and would highly recommend it to others seeking to explore a beautiful part of the Wild Atlantic Way.

The Oyster House was situated in such a beautiful area of the bay. Completely private and quiet with plenty of charm and comfort. A well stocked kitchen made meals a delight while sitting on the patio. The house was well appointed with good communication regarding our arrival. A beautiful bouquet of roses along with scones was also part of our delightful arrival after a long day of travel. One can’t order weather but this trip was absolute perfection. We spent our days hiking and discovering beautiful beaches and we made two trips to the neighboring oyster farm for a tour and to purchase oysters that were being raised right in the bay. It was a huge bonus. On one cool and misty day, we found a sauna to rent that was situated looking out to the sea. It was a perfect way to relax on a cool day. This entire area was just spectacular and beautiful.

We enjoyed three wonderful and very sunny days at this beautiful property and left restored and hoping to return again very soon. The house is beautifully located and decorated and is of a very high standard. Will recommend to friends and family and hope to return ourselves very soon.
