Hotels near Swanlinbar

We had a lovely overnight stay in the place. Aidan was very nice with us! Fresh renew property, we could feeling very well….. no words to express my thankful.

This turned out to be a great place to stay for the night. In my planning for our trip I was looking for a spot that was roughly half way between Donegal and Dublin that had an interesting place to stay. The Keepers Arms filled that bill. The room was pleasant, the beds comfortable, and good water pressure in the shower. The building is located near the main crossroads of the village (not that there was much traffic, but there were quite a few tractors passing through) but the noise of the traffic disappeared once we closed the windows for the night. We had chosen in advance to have dinner in the pub that evening since there was no other option nearby and the menu on line looked pretty good. When we were seated (we were the only diners at first, later to be joined by a local couple and a gentleman who came in for a pint) we were told that the kitchen was out of steak and fish. That left cheese burgers and chips for us, which were pretty good. Towards the end of our meal we met Sheila, the owner of the place. She was very welcoming and suggested that we take advantage of the two more hours of daylight by taking a drive out to the nearby sights. So we took the short drive to Tullydermot Falls which had recently had its parking area and walkway to the falls updated. The falls are likely very impressive when there was water flowing but there had been a lack of rain but it was still a pretty spot. We then drove up to the Altachullion Viewpoint, a spot at the top of a hill that had a parking area about the size of half a football pitch. It was very apparent that the nearby flock of sheep had spent time enjoying the views for one really had to watch their step in the parking lot. In the morning we were served a wonderful, full Irish breakfast cooked to order by Sheila. It is obvious that Sheila has a deep love for her place and for showing her guests the warm hospitality that the Irish are known for.

Everything was just so perfect

Wonderful location. Staff were excellent and extremely accommodating and the pool was very nice and warm,we enjoyed the pool twice during our stay.The breakfast was top. The interior is slightly nostalgic and cosy.It is a true Gem. They have their own Jam! Will come back in the near future.

Dungimmon House is a beautiful and cozy property. Graine was welcoming and accommodating. The most comfortable bed of our 7 nights.

Beautiful home, delicious breakfast, lovely views.
