Beautiful little cottage. Immaculately clean and Christine left lovely freshly baked bread, jams and milk for our arrival, a lovely touch. Very easy to find (used sat nav) and understanding of our late arrival. Visited the beach at Portnoo (just wow) and Assaranca waterfall which was beautiful. Our visit was to attend the Cup of tae festival in nearby Ardara which is fantastic, great music, great craic and great company. Brilliant wee booklet with lots of useful info, where to go, eat taxis etc left in the cottage. Will definitely be back!
No negatives at all, just to say that obviously you really need a car to explore.

It was the cosiest Little Cottage. Kids loved the Bunkbeds and the beds were so comfy. Less than 10 minutes from Ardra which was handy for a shop and food to eat out. I love portnoo beach and we were like 3km from it. A little slice of Heaven. Our host was very nice and had homemade bread on arrival. Which was so delicious. Would definitely recommend Granny's Den. So peaceful and away from the hustle and bustle. Just what we needed to recharge.

What an absolute gem! I cannot praise Granny Dens and host Caroline enough. Everything about this place was fabulous. The gorgeous cottage is spacious, cosy and comfortable and the turf fire an added bonus. The kitchen is so well equipped, the beds are comfortable and the hot water in the shower is hot. We were made to feel very welcome and the loaf of homemade soda bread was so thoughtful. We also loved the location, close to Ardara and lovely Portnoo. It was so, so hard to leave. Granny Dens has been a highlight for us on what has been an extensive road trip.

Beds were very comfortable also. Thanks again Caroline, my dad and uncle are already planning their next stay with you.

On our arrival we were met by Caroline who is just lovely. The cottage is set in a beautiful location it is very clean and extremely well maintained plus beautifully complimented with additional touches such as, the cottage was warm for our arrival, homemade scone bread and jam for a cup of tea and the log fire set. The cottage is well equipped with everything you would need for your stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend booking Granny’s Den.

Caroline was more than obliging and when I text her to say I was running late she arranged a place for me to get the key had she not been available to meet me straight away. She was very kind and I running late didn't cause any problems at all.
Everything was perfect as it was.

Lovely house in a great location. We were welcomed by Caroline upon arrival and had plenty of privacy for the duration of our stay. The house had everything we could have wished for, would definitely recommend.
Wifi wasn't always great, but we weren't there to just watch netflix. The house and surroundings more than made up for it.

We visited during some current covid restrictions but that did not take away from a beautiful break away. Amazing location, set in heart of countryside yet so close to the beach and a few we towns. So much to see and explore and the kids were never bored. Caroline is an amazing host so friendly and welcoming not forgetting Maggie the lamb and the donkeys. It really is a home from home. If your looking at this review questioning on if you should book it then don't hesitate,You will not be sorry!! We stayed 3 days and could of easily stayed so much longer. Needless to say we have booked our spot again for next year and can't wait to get back.
