“Amazing HOST, beautiful HOME, views are SPECTACULAR, Dungloe has the WARMEST folk in Ireland!” It all started famously as we were met at the driveway by our owner/host Mary. The views from this holiday home are spectacular whether looking North, South, East or West. Described perfectly in the rent ad, additional information that was provided by the Tansey's was very helpful as we planned out our week in Co. Donegal. But don't look to stray too far...the people and establishments in Dungloe were first rate. We were treated so warmly by everyone but one place in particular takes the honorable mention award....The Stepping Stone...don't miss it. Rest assured your stay in this holiday rental will be enjoyed to the fullest and stress free of any worries. Bedding was comfortable, amenities were all in place in working order, fireplace was ready to enjoy a Peat fire every evening. As I told Mary when it was time to depart...if I could be a "squatter" I'd never leave. To potential renters---enjoy this slice of Irish Heaven!! The Lacey's, Kelly & Patrick
