The view of the lake from the most delightfully cosy room was amazing.
The gardens are very well kept, and im sure must be beautiful in the summer when the flowers are in bloom.
All the little extras in the room made our stay very special. It was warm and very comfortable and clean.
There was a great choice on the breakfast menu, all deliciously cooked to.perfection.
The mill is just a short walk from the town centre or a few minutes by car.

Fabulous location with stunning little cottage style rooms and amazing decor in the main building. Heather was an absolute star of a host too!

Dunfanaghy itself could have maybe another shop or two for appealing to tourists. I noticed bus trips stop there. Unfortunately a derelict hotel opposite Arnold’s hotel is a bit of an eye sore. Have heard it may have been purchased by a new owner so that may improve things.Arnold’s itself has good outdoor appearance.
In general seems a friendly community , and near a number of picturesque and beautiful beaches.

I love Donegal and would never leave without a visit to the old workhouse for a coffee, a browse in the craft shop and maybe pick up a used book or two. A staff member recommended a lovely walk this time around as well. Another favourite is a visit to Ards Friary, lovely coffee there too after a walk along the sea and a visit to the beautiful little beach, perfect for the grand-children so will have to let them into the secret. Ostan Loch Altan in Gortahork is a great wee place to eat and very reasonably priced too.

Very busy this time due to heatwave & the fact people had missed out on earlier holidays this year.
The beaches in Co Donegal are fabulous.
We ate in “ The Cove”, Arnold’s hotel & The Shannon hotel
Yes, easy to get round Dunfanaghy - just a long Main Street.
We would avoid week- ends too busy!

Close to the town but when you leave the town you benefit from escaping the noise and traffic to tranquil surroundings. Lovely rooms and great facilities. Made to feel very welcome and a relaxed atmosphere.
Well organised and breakfast was fantastic too.

The Cove restaurant was a very pleasant experience, beautiful food and friendly owner and staff. You have to try the fish.
Then the beach, what a beautiful day we had, friendly people too. Pity we couldn't try the horse riding because of covid.
This place was a slice of Paradise. It's more like a quaint hotel than a B&B. I traveled back to visit home in Ireland with my partner from Texas. He had never been and was amazed by this place too. HIGHLY recommend it.
The staff were really friendly. Breakfast was gorgeous. The first morning I had a full Irish, then next I had smoked Atlantic salmon and scrambled eggs all of which were cooked to perfection. They also had interesting things like vanilla seaweed pudding.
We loved our stay at The Mill. It is a beautiful and extremely comfortable property, with lovely gardens and a stunning view over the lake. Our hostess made us feel very welcome and shared good advice about nearby points of interest. We enjoyed excellent breakfasts in the warm, sunny dining room. There is a comfortable sitting room and also a conservatory where guests can relax, read a book, or share a glass of wine without feeling crowded in together.
Am delighted to have stayed in this beautiful, fully equipped apartment with an amazing sea view. The location was superb. It is close to shops, restaurants, church and local amenities. The host was incredibly helpful and easily contacted if need be. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to stay in Portnablagh, Dunfanaghy or surrounding area.
A cosy and beautiful place to stay. Around 1K outside of Dunfanaghy town, with exceptional views and quietness. A lovely short walk into the town. The house was very clean and cosy. Ursula was helpful and really made the experience superb. We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you!
Apartment was, really comfortable and clean with all the amenities you wanted. It was just off the main square in Dunfanaghy, 2 mins walk to shops, bars and restaurants. Ann was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. Will definitely stay here again.
Perfect for our family of 5. Áine our host was really helpful, even leaving us a plate of rocky road for our arrival. The house was ideal, spotlessly clean, with all we needed for our stay. We had a lovely time in Dunfanaghy and can't wait to come back -> 10/10.
Great set up with range of accommodation and lovely garden/ grounds. Excellent breakfast, family friendly place. Well located for stunning beaches and the town of Dunfagnhy with all you could want for holiday - pubs/cafe restaurants/ supermarket etc.
A hidden gem in the northwest. Great access to Donegal sightseeing to visit Dunfanaghy or Falcarragh. The lodge is full of character, a most enjoyable experience. I would recommend it as somewhere to stay on your travels around Tir Chonaill.
Hotel is in a great location, amazing views - go for the sea view room (the rooms at the back of the hotel just look on to a hill). Rooms are basic but clean. Restaurant is fantastic - food and service was excellent.
It’s slap bang in the middle of Dunfanaghy, with its pubs, shops and cafes, and minutes from the beach. A good shower, too, and excellent communication. Good value for money compared with other places in the town.
Perfectly located and accessible to everything in the town. Warm and cosy with a beautiful log burning fire. Short drive to Ards and Glenveigh. Pubs and hotel within walking distance for food and drinks.
As I am 7 months pregnant, I felt very last relaxed at the hotel and there was a good vibe about the place. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at the spa and the staff couldn’t have been anymore accommodating.
A great historic hotel in the center of Dunfanaghy. We really enjoyed our stay. We had breakfast and some dinners in the hotel restaurant, which were very good. The staff & room were great.
