What our customers say about their holidays

  The Glen is a real holiday for any family.

  The property is secluded yet within easy reach of Carndonagh Town with every type of shop or service needed. The house itself, wow! We were blown away! The best quality appliances, full built in furniture throughout. Everything one would need is included in the package right down to the electric multi cooker. The rooms are all very spacious. 3 showers and a jacuzzi bath. The beds were very comfortable and had extra blankets and pillows. 7 beds in total, king-size, double and 3 single beds, one with a pullout mattress for an extra guest. The owner, Ryan, is obviously understanding of each individuals needs and has provided a luxury spacious, warm home to suit everyone and anyone. I had a severely learning disabled adult, two elderly and infirm parents and an adult with a serious medical condition. Everyone felt at home and everyone's needs were met. The ramp at the back door was a godsend. Ryan has maintained this home to the highest standard. He has an eye for detail and provides fixtures, fittings and accessories of very high quality. No expense spared. As a host, he was brilliant. Rowing up in the area, he is knowledgable and can guide you to the best places to visit, to dine at or to go for a lively morning walk. Responding immediately to any messages I sent, even on Christmas day. He is attentive and kind, taken care of every detail, honestly, this home definitely made Christmas break away one to remember; it was truly the best Christmas break our family has had for many years. I don't get many breaks away but I will be booking a break away to the Glen in 2025.

  My stay at Maifield with my family was a lovely and relaxed experience.

  Maifield was a beautiful, peaceful, comfortable and interesting home, with lots of space. It really was a home from home with all the facilities you would ever need. It was set amongst beautiful countryside, complete with stables, where we were lucky enough to witness the birth of a foal during our stay. Pat, the owner, was a great host. He greeted us at the property on arrival and showed us all around. We had access to everything at the property. Nothing was too much trouble for Pat, he was always very helpful. We loved spending time having a chat with Pat over a nice cup of tea. His partner, also called Pat, was a lovely lady who welcomed us to Maifield with delicious fruit scones on our arrival. They were a lovely couple who made us all feel extremely welcome. We all felt very much part of the family while we stayed there, and it was an absolute pleasure. The surrounding countryside was exquisite, and we enjoyed many country walks. The local village was about a mile down the road, with a shop and also an excellent bakery, with freshly made home baked bread and cakes every day. I would thoroughly recommend a stay at Maifield. Staying at Maifield was just wonderful, and I cannot wait to return for another holiday.

  We loved the house and garden, spotlessly clean, comfortable living and sleeping and a magical garden.

  The location of the house is perfect for exploring the northern part of county Donegal and nearby beach a special bonus, as within walking distance (as is the pub!). All appliances for comfortable living available and we especially appreciated the washing line with a roof over it. The stairs in the house are steep, but this was advertised during booking information. We thought it might be useful to install a mirror at the exit of the driveway, as it is currently difficult to see the road when driving out. The landlords provided any information, books, maps, leaflets about the house, area and county Donegal, really appreciated (especially useful was the information about how to avoid being bitten by the midges that certainly were present in abundance in the garden). The care taker was available throughout the stay for answering any questions. Overall the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday and we hope to return to the Mermaid again.

  The owner ( and his gorgeous little dog ) was very welcoming and helped us when we had difficulty with the tv.

  He came straight away. He gave us lots of great information of the area of walks, shops etc. The property was very comfortable and spotlessly clean, we had everything we needed for lovely holiday. It is situated in a fabulous spot with open views from the patio door, lovely 5 minute walk along a grass path and down steps to the beach, perfect! It's a beautiful, quiet spot to get away from the humdrum of everyday life. Would love to stay again and can highly recommend to others. If you like peace and quiet, this is the perfect place for you. We had a fantastic week, the weather wasn't too bad and one day we sat outside in the garden in glorious sunshine reading, It was a proper sun trap and perfectly peaceful.

  This large house is perfectly situated on a hill with a fantastic view of an inlet to the sea and is within driving distance of some beautiful beaches and all sites and amenities in the Fanad area.

  It was perfect for us and our small dog. It is warm and well maintained - very comfortable. Ann the owner is very friendly and helpful and left us a nice 'welcome pack' with cake, wine and biscuits. Our only small criticism would be that the kitchen is not that well equipped (no smaller plates, only a few bowls - bring a potato peeler!). There are no recycle bins (or indeed, any external bins) and recyclable materials need to be taken off site but this was not a major inconvenience. We would recommend this home and, if you can't find peace and tranquility in the 'hills' (and beaches) of North Donegal, there's really no hope for you... Trevor and Elaine
