Customer reviews of properties in Dungloe
A delightful cottage with stunning sea views. The reality even surpassed the lovely photos on the website. The accommodation was very clean and we received a warm welcome from the local manager. We enjoyed lots of beach walks with the dogs. We would highly recommend visits to Carrickfinn beach and Cruit Island.

Have just spent a week at the beautiful Seahouse and I can’t recommend it enough. From the time of booking, Natasha was so helpful and friendly. On arrival we found the house to be as good as the photos which doesn’t always happen !! Spotless clean and every comfort you would need to enjoy your stay, beautifully decorated too. Location wise it was just stunning, you can spend hours looking out at the sea but a great base to explore this part of Donegal. Very attentive host. Look forward to returning.

The Sea House is a wonderful quiet retreat from the bustle of everyday life. This is our third year to stay. It is so peaceful and the sunsets over the island are amazing. It is compact, clean, well-stocked and the owner and local manager are receptive and respond readily if anything is required. The beach at Mahery, five minutes drive away is just fabulous. I recommend this accommodation and will be back. Wonderful.

What a wonderful house in the most beautiful location. When we arrived we were hugely impressed by the high standards which greeted us. It was a home from home with everything we could want for the week. The bedrooms are decorated tastefully and are really comfortable. The living room is so cosy and the kitchen with the view of the bay is simply stunning. We have 3 small boys and they loved the outdoor space also. We had the best week in the Oyster House and we would return in a heartbeat. If you are thinking about staying, think no more and book your stay. You won’t be sorry!
This was the second time we stayed at the Sea House and we look forward to going back. The Sea House is a tastefully restored Irish vernacular Longhouse and is fully appointed with all mod cons. Comfortably sleeps six and the turf burning open fire is cosy. We were able to watch the sun setting behind Aranmore from the raised deck and listen to the curlews. Its bliss to eat breakfast looking at the ever-changing sea and sky through the picture window. The local boreens are great for exploring and the beach at Maghery is a short drive away. Dungloe is 5 minutes drive with all amenities. There is kayaking available at Maghery and lots of walks. We are hill walkers and its only half an hour to Dunlewy and the Glenveagh National Park. Natasha and team are always welcoming, the house is kept spic and span, and they are only a text away if any help or advice are needed. We are looking forward to our next visit!
Hi Natasha, We’d a brilliant holiday staying in the Sea House. We’re a family of 2 adults, 2 boys and a crazy dog. We were welcomed with homemade bread, everything for tea, coffee and a box of dog treats – all really appreciated after the drive from Dublin.
The house is fitted out like a Laura Ashley photoshoot – homely, comforting with everything you could need. I looked for a radio and a brand new one was delivered! With cosy blankies and tea lights, it’s heaven to snuggle inside, if the weather isn’t cooperating. Both bedrooms have lovely views to wake up to and the comfiest beds.
The location is great with the sea seconds away, a stunning view of Arranmore Island and Dungloe close by. We were lucky to have breathtaking sunsets most nights.
During the day we did kayaking with Selkie Sailing, a fishing trip with Sliabh Liag boats (we caught the next day’s dinner and loads more) and horse riding at the sea in Carrickart. I’d highly recommend all of these – such brilliant memories.
The local beaches are beautiful and we spent the week in awe of the county’s scenery. The gorgeous Maghery beach is only a short spin away.
We fell in love with Donegal and especially the Sea House. Look forward to returning.
Many thanks,
Pauline
Hi Natasha,
We had a wonderful week once again in the gorgeous Oyster House. We had a great time & the weather was grand. We took a spin over to see the Sea House too. It’s in a really fabulous location. I hope you are having a lovely break too & I’m delighted we will be back again next year.
Kindest regards,
Deirdre
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Oyster House. This house is just perfect, the views are just beautiful and the location is amazing for plenty of sightseeing in Donegal
Natasha, we had the most beautiful stay at the Oyster House. It was like something out of a movie. It was so relaxing and picturesque. I could have stayed forever.
Even though the weather was awful we loved every second of it. And there’s something so cosy and soothing about looking out at the rain too. The boys loved their beds for the week and they enjoyed packing their stuff into the drawers. Normally we would all be living out of suitcases but we really settled into our “home” for the week.
Geraldine and Sharon were fabulous people and Sharon and her husband gave us lots of good tips about a few trips we planned to make.
Thank you so much for having us in the Oyster House. Hopefully, we will return someday. I have already recommended your house to 2 of my friends.
Thanks so much for everything
The Ryall family
Hi Natasha ,
We have just returned from a very relaxing weeks break at the delightful Oyster Cottage. The cottage is a beautiful place to stay with relaxed but stylish decor and it is very well equipped with everything you need for your holiday. The location is very peaceful and the sea views are stunning and the outdoor decking area is the perfect place for socialising, unfortunately, the weather meant we couldn’t take advantage of it as much as we would have liked. We would thoroughly recommend The Oyster Cottage as a great spot for a relaxing family break.
