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!

We originally booked this location for a June 2020 trip to Ireland; however, COVID restrictions eliminated this vacation. I never stopped thinking about this location. We FINALLY got it back on track, and I immediately booked this location. The location is perfect. The bay is visible from the home, and I spent most mornings drinking coffee, writing, and watching the sea. Quiet and contemplative. The furniture is comfortable and laid out nicely. Loved the wood floors and the quaintness of the home (felt like a step back in time). The first day, a friendly horse greeted us. Caroline was excellent, helping us solve a couple of riddles that confounded unfamiliar Americans with how things work in Irish homes. This home was the magical center of my time in Ireland. HIGHLY RECOMMEND it.

A beautiful cottage, decor is so pretty. Greeted with tea, coffee, hot chocolate milk and fresh scones. A fire of the bay and the oyster farm at the bottom of the garden. Thank you to Caroline for checking in with us and Natasha for a wonderful stay in her amazing cottage.

A great location for touring Donegal situated in a lovely bay with fantastic views. Though unable to use the outside area (weather) this would be lovely for breakfast, lunch, lazing, and sundowners.

The house is beautifully located by the water and has a great outdoor seating area. It is centrally located in Co Donegal to be able to explore this wonderful part of Ireland. The house is well appointed with a large kitchen and dining area which opens out onto the deck.
