Since we forgot to write a note on the "visitors' book", here we go: among all the places we have bene staying to during our holidays in Ireland, this was surely the best as It made us feel at home. Clean, cosy, with a stunning view over the bay and an incredible care for those little details that eventually can make all the difference and speak about two hosts that really care about their guests. Brigitte and Adrien welcomed us warmely, suggesting us the hidden gems of their surrounding and waking us up with the sweetest of all breakfasts. We Will be back soon and definetely for a longer time! Thanks for everything!

The view from the common room was stunning! This turned every breakfast into something special! Brigitte shared with us many valuable insights on trips, destinations and hidden gems. It was so lovely to use the common (living) room and kitchen with other guests and sit together for a sundowner drink.

We were delighted with the amazing view from the shared sitting room and kitchen. Everything we could need was provided. The hosts were very welcoming. There were so many artistic touches to the place. There are stunning views, beach walks, beautiful wild flowers nearby. A delicious breakfast was provided which we were not expecting. We had an enjoyable chat with other guests. We couldn't recommend this place enough.

Amazing views with beautiful location. Host Brigitte was so caring and lovely, she has thought of everything to make you feel welcomed. The place is so cosy and has that special vibe that makes you want to indulge and stay there forever. We loved the fire place .Brigitte baked home made bread- served as part of breakfast, just delicious!!
We loved everything, everything was more than perfect!!!

I was made to feel very welcome and Brigitte had a great deal of local knowledge about locations and places to visit. I really liked the views from the sitting room, the peat fire in the evenings and the tranquillity as the sun set out over the bay.
I went for the walking festival, but is a great location for doing your own thing. There are many walks ranging from high hills to pristine beaches (Ballinreacy Strand) or neolithic / bronze age sites to visit. The Lookout is little more than a 5 minute drive to Ardara village which is small, but had everything I required – good places to eat and good pubs with live music.
Nothing really. But before going I was slightly concerned about the shared bathroom / shower room – but in fact this was not a problem.

Incredible views over Maghara beach, the waterfall and the hills.
We were excited about the pancakes per the previous reviews and they didn't disappoint. They were incredible!
Bridgette was incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay.
She has been coming to Ireland for 27 years and knows way more about than the country than i do as a native! She had great knowledge about amazing walks and hikes and recommendations of town and hostels to stay at elsewhere in the country.
She also gave us a lift into Ardara and picked us up so that we could have a few drinks in one of the awesome pubs.
Brillant hosts.
