Donegal Manor & Cookery School

This is the third time we have stayed at Donegal Manor and we cannot rate it enough. The manor is PERFECT for a large group of friends or family. The living/dining area is an impressive size and great for congregating together with more than enough seating. The professional kitchen is amazing - we were able to cook for our group of 22 with no issues and there is plenty of fridge space for bringing any food or drink with you. Beds are comfortable and each bedroom has it's own ensuite bathroom which is a real selling point for us. Once you are in the bedrooms you hear nothing from the living/dining areas so it is great when you have kids with you (or someone who wants to go to bed early). We have always stayed in December and each time the house has been beautifully decorated for Christmas which is a lovely touch - the mince pies and mulled wine left by the hosts are so lovely as well! The wood burner keeps the living area nice and cosy and fire wood/coal is provided to keep you going throughout your stay. The hosts are responsive and available when needed, but very happy to leave us to it. 5 minute drive to Biddy O'Barnes which has fantastic food, 5 minutes to Donegal Town with great pubs and restaurants and Lidl is less than 5 minutes drive - the location is perfect. We love Donegal Manor and will definitely be back again and again!
