Rosapenna and Tom Doak’s St Patrick’s Links are five minutes away, with a sauna, a hot tub and the games room for whoever’s not playing, and tee times arranged on request.
The golf is why a lot of guests come. Rosapenna is five minutes away (Tom Doak’s St Patrick’s Links, the Sandy Hills, and the Old Tom Morris), and Portsalon and Ballyliffin are an easy drive on for a buggy-and-a-half itinerary. We arrange tee times on request and a late check-in for the dawn-flight crowd.
Then there’s the part that matters after eighteen in a Donegal wind: a private hot tub at every stay, the hot-stone sauna across the courtyard, drying space for the waterproofs, and the games room (whiskey-stave table, a TV for whatever’s on) for the post-round debrief. Book a cabin for a pair, the cottage for a fourball.
St Patrick’s Links, Sandy Hills and Old Tom Morris on the doorstep; Portsalon and Ballyliffin within reach. Tee times arranged on request.
A private hot tub at every stay, the hot-stone sauna across the courtyard, and somewhere to dry the waterproofs that isn’t the radiator.
Self check-in by lockbox, so the dawn flight isn’t a problem. The games room’s open 24h for the debrief, and Carrigart’s pubs are four kilometres on.
Most golf trips have someone who doesn’t play, and the usual problem is they’re left rattling around a hotel until the round’s done. Here they’re not. While half the party is out on the links, the other half has the hot-stone sauna, a private hot tub, and the games room to themselves: a quiet wellness morning rather than a wait.
It works whichever way round it falls: one of you tees off at Rosapenna while the other has the sauna and a long soak with the bay in view; or you swap, and it’s the spa morning first, the back nine after. Carrigart’s four kilometres on for coffee and a wander, the beaches are twenty minutes, and everyone meets back at the games-room bar to compare the morning.
Five minutes from Rosapenna, with a hot tub and sauna for after. Tell us your tee times and we’ll work the check-in around them. Book direct: we honour Airbnb and Booking.com rates with no commission.
