The house was huge with alot of open space to share. The view from bedroom window was amazing looking out to the ocean, and the ocean breeze was heavenly. The room was spacious and comfortable. We stayed for three days and was so happy we choose to do so. It was a great launching point for our touring then west coast and parts of Northern Ireland as well. Very convenient.

This is an exceptional property. Unbelievable setting, great rooms and fantastic breakfast. That said, it is really, really quiet so if you need a lively place, this is not for you.

My wife and our two dogs stayed here on Saturday night and we had the best time. Our dog friendly room was beautiful and the dogs loved the space across the fields were they could roam free. The staff were so accommodating and the food was amazing. We had a lovely breakfast and will definitely be back again! Thank you for a wonderful stay with our two wee pups.

An amazing view over Donegal Bay !
A totally relaxing atmosphere with an amazing view of Donegal Bay. Whether you read a favorite book in the library room while sitting back in a cozy leather chair or enjoy a drink in the self-help pub room or just relax on the outside patio and watch an amazing sunset, this is the place to do it all. The staff was so helpful in suggesting nearby touring sites and restaurants. The lighthouse at St. John's Point is close by and Slieve League is only a 40 minute drive along some of the most beautiful coastline you'll ever see.

Le meilleur hotel de charme de notre voyage
Le Castle Murray house est un petit hotel de plein de charme. Installé au bout d'une petite route, il est idéalement situé face à la mer. Ses grandes baies panoramiques permettent de profiter de la vue magnifique sur la baie, les parcs à moules et les moutons. Une impression d'être seuls au monde et quel calme!!! Les chambres sont très joliment décorées et sont pourvues d'une literie de grande qualité. Le fonctionnement rappelle un Bed & Breakfast : on se sert soi-même au bar et on note la consommation sur le cahier. Le propriétaire, un français devenu irlandais depuis 15 ans, donne mille conseils de visite et adresses de restaurant. Il concocte par ailleurs des petits déjeuners gourmands faits minute : scones à la myrtille tout chauds sortis du four (miam), oeufs brouillés au maquereau fumé maison, pancakes gargantuesques. Bref notre meilleur petit déjeuner de l'Irlande!! Bref fuyez Donegal et ses hôtels insipides et prenez la route pour vous rendre à cette adresse, vous y tomberez sous le charme
