Straleel South

The house is clean and well-decorated, the room and en suite bathroom are spacious and the bed is extremely comfortable. The house is just outside Carrick and very near the Slieve League and other sights of interest.

There are three primary drawbacks to this property. First, contrary to the hosts' assertions, the property is not easy to find and directions are not explicit. Second, although the per night price is reasonable for a popular destination in high season, the added charge of 17.50 Euro for breakfast is not. For a comparable price, other booking.com properties include a generous breakfast. Third and in my estimation a deal breaker, the hosts insist on a 4 to 6pm checkin. It is impossible to eat dinner and get to the remote location prior to 6pm. Eating after checkin is equally problematic because the few restaurants in Carrick are fully booked after 6pm. The hosts reside in the house, so there is no obvious reason why they should inconvenience their guests in this way. I would neither stay here again nor recommend it to others.

Breakfast was lovely. Amazing impressive views all around, perfect for hiking. Scottish owner was so friendly and nice to chat to, and I loved meeting all the cats. Bedroom was absolutely fantastic, so big and the bed was extremely comfortable.

A bit difficult if you don’t have your own car, however there is a bus which runs from Donegal to Carrick, which is a small town about a 40 minute walk away. This is the number of a local taxi +353 (85) 100 5202

Very nice plenty to eat
