    Absolutley stunning house. Ideal for a family with Pets. We had 4 short days at the house and wish we had more. The morning sunrise on tbe hils and the sunset over the saltpans is something spectacular. The house is perfect in every way for those looking a tranquel getaway.

    From the moment we arrived we knew we had picked the perfect spot. The location, the views, the house…everything was picture perfect. Even on the wet and stormy days we were comfortable and cosy. We had everything we needed, including the gorgeous welcome table of tea, scones and fresh flowers. Online photos and information were all spot on - would highly recommend this property as the perfect base for seeing all Donegal has to offer.

    We stayed in this beautiful cottage for close to a month and loved every minute. It was a perfect location to further explore county Donegal in all directions. Great walks and discoveries around beautiful Maghery beach nearby as well. Dungloe was a wonderful town with warm and friendly people and plenty of pubs and shopping to meet our needs. We were blessed with sunny weather for almost the whole time and sounds of birds singing, including a cuckoo bird. Looking out the picture window at the changing tide, view of Arranmore island, and gorgeous sunsets added to the joys of staying at the Sea House. Hope to return!

    What a beautiful cottage and stunning location with views that inspire awe! Private, quiet and idyllic completely updated and spotless Irish cottage. Two fireplaces, comfy beds, spacious rooms and lovingly designed and decorated. Eat in or head into Dungloe about a mile away. A fantastic place to explore Donegal. I will most definitely return here.

    We had a great week in this wonderful holiday cottage. We could easily have spent the whole week enjoying the view and surroundings but did venture out to see the rest of Donegal. Recommend this cottage tk anyone wanting peace and quiet surrounded by nature.

    The Sea House is a beautiful,cosy cottage situated between Dungloe and Maghery . The cottage is tastefully decorated with a nautical theme and is immaculately presented. The large picture window looks out to the sea, the islands, the mountains and outside the higher decking provides spectacular views of the area. The nearby beach at Maghery is a perfect strand for walks and there are longer walks around Maghery where you can take in the magnificent scenery . Dungloe is close for shopping and there is also a River Walk which provides an easy walk through a magical fairyland and along the river. After a day’s exploring,the Sea House is a perfect place to return to and watch the sun setting over Arranmore island .
