A perfect place for a family getaway, with exquisite views over Lough Foyle.

The house was a perfect home from home, and the hosts were so helpful. The views were stunning, beds very comfortable and the bungalow was very spacious.

We are a bit adverse to "the big light" in rooms, so we would have loved some smaller lamps in the dining room and sitting room areas, but we took the bedside table lamps into those rooms during the evenings! Otherwise, we had no issues!

Just what I needed!

Must say this property was perfect for our family holiday. Property was very clean, beautiful scenery, close to Moville Town and nearby beaches. Very quiet area and ideal for family with young children. Owners of property very helpful and great to deal with.

Wonderful place for a relaxing family break.

Lovely host to deal with, quick responses. Outstanding location in the hills behind Moville, with spectacular views. Spacious grounds, easy parking and good boundary fence for our dogs. Nice country walks from the property, and only about 5 minute drive into the town (car a must). A relaxing experience all round.

We would have appreciated bath mats and more towel rail space.

Perfect stay

Fabulous cottage, exceptionally clean, spacious, with beautiful views and not too far from the town. Lovely comfortable bed, cosy fire for cooler nights. Perfect space for the dogs to enjoy and for quiet walks.

Lovely cottage with a great view. Very accommodating host.

Lovely location. Very peaceful. Cottage very spacious for us all (8 people in total). 2 great size living room/dining room. Everything inside was easily worked. Great to have a washing machine especially when weather wasn’t that great and plenty of muddy clothes. Very friendly cat liked to visit. Host was very contactable and answered promptly any questions we asked.

Unfortunately dining table was only suitable for 6 people. Maybe a couple of fold up chairs that can be used when 8 folk staying.

Wonderful. Perfect little cottage off the beaten track. Didn’t want to come home!

Stunning location, wonderful hosts, perfect for our family and dog. Large, secure garden for the dog to enjoy his holiday. You won’t want to watch TV, you’ll just want to stare at the loch and changing sky, especially at sunrise and sunset. Plenty of turf provided for the fire in the cooler evenings. Kitchen has everything you need and beds are very comfy. Small adjoining farm so you can say hi to the 3 or 4 sheep over the garden fence at the back. Hosts are very knowledgeable, friendly and available without being too intrusive. We had a perfect stay and will be back.

It didn’t bother us, but it’s a couple of miles walk into town. Petrol stations locally have great shopping on site due to the rural location. Great food and drink in Moville, and nearby beaches are stunning and safe for swimming. I can’t find anything to complain about at all!

We had a really enjoyable stay. The host met us on arrival to explain how the heating etc worked and they were ok hand b

We had the most wonderful few days here for St Patrick’s day. The kids loved being able to run around the spacious garden and the turf fire made the evenings super cosy!

The house was great. Basic but comfortable and had everything we needed.

Lovely peaceful location Good facilities, well heated Good hosts Close to the town

Wifi went off at about 12.30am when we were watching something. Had to ring the host the next morning to get more data put on. Was a bin in kitchen but no wee smaller bins placed within the cottage in bathroom, living room etc. Bed in the ensuite was quite uncomfortable could do with a new mattress. A bigger tv would make things better too. These are just a few things to improve but by no means is this a negative review. We both enjoyed our time at the cottage and would definitely come back.

I would highly recommend Knockalt Cottage: lovely spot, clean and comfy. Very attentive hosts.

The cottage was spacious and spotlessly clean. Plenty of room for our party of five (there are four bedrooms and two big reception rooms). Hosts were very kind and helpful, eg explaining how heating worked. They even provided a gift of groceries etc on our arrival, plus wood, firefighters and turf for the fire.

Nothing to report here.

Very enjoyable stay in a very clean, comfortable and spacious house.

This house is in an idyllic, peaceful location, overlooking Lough Foyle, about 25 minutes walk to Moville town centre and an ideal base from which to explore Inishowen. It was very clean and spacious for our extended family group, with a lovely garden which our dog, Toby also enjoyed. There was outdoor furniture where (weather permitting!) the views can be savoured from over food and/or drink. Our hosts provided milk, bread and eggs to welcome us, which was much appreciated as were the fresh towels midweek. Moville and the surrounding area has lots of good places to eat in or get a takeaway from. The area also has several blue flag beaches and stunning scenery along the Wild Atlantic Way.

The shower in the en-suite needed to have the boiler on first for hot water & the tank didn't seem to keep the water warm for very long. Luckily there was also an electric shower in the other bathroom.

Beautiful home close to the beach with views of the sea

Beautiful house, spacious and not just family friendly but autism friendly. Lovely secure garden and gate with so much space for kids to play. Beds were comfy and even board games to play indoors. Excellent stay, highly recommend.

Beautiful location, lovely and clean. Beware of the cat.

•The view is simply breathtaking, stunning location, close to the local amenities. • Clean house, clean bedding. •Good Wi-Fi, and TV set up. •Although not as big as the pictures looks, the Garden is a decent size. •Sofa in the lounge is very comfy. •Unintrusive host, but quick to respond when we had issue with the toaster not working. •Thoughtful bread and milk waiting for us upon arrival.

•The cat. We have a child with allergies and there is a cat continuously trying to enter the property. If you’re a cat person this won’t bother you. We were going to bring our dog along, but I’m glad we didn’t. It would have been hell. The cat is relentless and not deterred by usual shoo tactics. We couldn’t have a window or door open. • Lack of kitchen ware, the tin opener is rusted and doesn’t work and there’s not one serving dish. • One of the mattresses we had to flip on arrival, as there were coils coming through. • En-suite bathroom is covered in mould. We kept the door shut and kept out of there. •Lack of cleaning products, No antibacterial spray or such. •The photos suggest fires are used, there wasn’t anything for a fire. In other places we’ve stayed, there’s been fire lighters etc ready for a little fire. •No outdoor fire pit or bbq. Just a table and chairs. • Battery is running out of the smoke alarm, relentless pipping, we had to take it out early hours of the morning. This is not the hosts fault, obviously cannot predict when power will run out.

Beautiful location, lots of ground around the house. Lots of room in the house, big rooms, hosts left us bread, milk and eggs which was a really lovely touch. Full size fridge and freezer, cooker, loads of crockery, pans etc. Would definitely stay again.

Idyllic setting and great sized property

Beautiful, peaceful surroundings. Really good size property for the 6 of us and the location was great too. Mary and Gerard were great, perfect hosts, left bread, milk and eggs which was great. They were right next door if we needed anything and responded to messages extremely quickly.

Couldn't fault this place at all

Amazing views

Views are amazing. House really comfortable & spotlessly clean. Huge shower in main bathroom. Peat provided for the open fires - was so cosy at nights. It was so peaceful. Was fantastic to be able to bring our wee dog.

The smell of oil from the heating boiler in the kitchen 🥺 I can't stand the smell of diesel & oil etc so I found the smell very overpowering - even with the window left open.

Great country escape to Donegal

Everything was good. Good host. A few minutes drive to Moville Town. Great for country escape. Very quiet, beautiful countryside scenery.

Everything was fine. Very good host. Just thought of a bed could have been a bit better (maybe because we use firm beds at home). That wouldn't stop me from going again. Plenty of furniture.

I have two dogs and was always a bit hesitant to take them to country side and have a quality time woth them. This time

An amazing location to have some quality time, rest and drinking next to fireplace with all modern amenities to have the comfort.

There is nothing that you would not like, everything is there , even for your pets, friends or elderly.
