What a magnificent place. I don’t want to rave about it too much because I want to keep it as a hidden gem! We stayed in cabin 1 and the view is wonderful when sitting in the hot tub. The whole cabin was well equipped - air fryer and all. It was lovely and clean with a super comfortable bed and sofa. The tv had Netflix etc but we didn’t really use it as we were too busy enjoying the view outside. It’s also great to find somewhere so lovely and dog friendly! That was a big plus for us. We will be back.

Stayed here for 4 days, the cabin was beautiful and decorated to a high standard, bedroom was lovely, bed was so comfy and we had a great sleep each night, kitchen area has everything you need for your stay, and shower had great water pressure, It was a great location to base yourself to see all that Donegal and surrounding areas has to offer, very peaceful and quiet, Hot tub is a great feature and we spent our evenings sitting in it, if I did have to nip pick, I would say that hot tub does need to be emptied and cleaned as you can see a lot of scum residue built up on sides and also can feel some small pebbles on the base of it, Other than that we did enjoy our stay and we look forward to visiting again really soon

Tha is for your feedback John. I’m really glad you enjoyed yourselves. I’ll have another look at the tub maintenance. They are cleaned between every stay and the chemicals monitored closely but we might have to be a bit better about communicating how not to bring stones or sand into them.

Everything was just perfect! So clean and homey. We stayed in cabin 1 and the view from the hot tub was fabulous, we just soaked it all in. Such a great place to get away from reality. Will definitely be back next year! Massive perk that it is dog friendly!

Just back from a week with the family where we booked both cabins at DaveyJohn’s forge. Both are immaculately presented, have everything you could need for your stay and the hot tub is an added bonus. Shane was a great host and kept in touch, ensuring we had everything we needed. A great week, which we might have to repeat in the winter months!

Our first time to stay in a cabin and Shane's Cabin has set our standards extremely high. It was super clean, warm and cosy. Such a peaceful location overlooking Mulroy Bay. A perfect base to tour the Fanad and Rosguill peninsulas . We really enjoyed the use of the private hot tub. Would definitely recommend and come back!

This cabin is a perfect retreat from the busy city. A simple FAQ sheet would have made our initial experience a little less stressful - especially for Americans. That said, Shane was extremely responsive as we settled in and figured things out. The location is excellent for some of Ireland’s more hidden gems such as Malin Head, Glenveagh National Park, and Rossapina golf resort. This stay suited our needs perfectly.

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin - it was the perfect place to relax and recuperate. The sofa was so comfy, TV had everything you could possibly need and we ended up having our meals in as everything we needed to cook was right there. We enjoyed trying out the airfryer too! We had some bad weather while there which wasn't a problem as we could hop in the hot tub and relax as it's covered by the porch. We were unlucky enough to experience a few power outages during our stay which affected the whole Millbay area but Shane was in contact with us giving us advice and there were also back up LED lights which came on in the cabin when this happened so we weren't left sitting in the dark. The location is perfect for exploring, with Fanad lighthouse, Glenveagh national park and the Donegal Boardwalk all on our list of places we ventured to from the cabin and would recommend! The comfiest bed and a great shower made it hard to want to return home. Shane contacted us a few times during our stay to check everything was ok which we really appreciated.

This place was fantastic! Great location and beautiful scenery right on the doorstep. The cabin was incredibly well appointed and the mattress was super comfortable. Over all the place was very cosy and warm to be in. Wifi was available and the tv had access to Netflix, YouTube and more so no lack of entertainment options. We were also surprised to find a hot tub that was part of the cabin on the front decking - it was warm and ready to use immediately which was a real highlight. Shane was also a great host, super communicative and helpful. I would highly recommend staying here, the only regret was not being able to stay longer!

The cabin is very clean, spacious and has all the utilities you could possibly need. The bed is a great size and is very comfortable. The hot tub is amazing also with a nice view across the lough. The property is close to Dunfanaghy and Downings where there are some beautiful drives along the wild Atlantic way and spectacular beaches. There are also some great walks not too far away - I would recommend the Glenveigh National Park. Overall we had a great time and will definitely be back.

We couldn’t believe how beautiful the cabin was when we went inside. A stunning kitchenette, living area, beautiful bedroom & super comfy bed & a lovely bathroom with a super shower! The heating system is so easy to use with an adjustable thermostat which was great for a very cold weekend!❄️ We had a lovely time sitting watching Netflix & having a glass of wine in the hot tub after a long walk! An utterly perfect experience that we will not forget! Cannot wait for our next visit some day! Going to recommend here to everyone I know!!!!!😄😄

The cabin is in a picturesque setting with amazing views. Amazing hikes if you are like us and love to hike or explore one of the many close beaches. Close to shops and the eircode will bring you straight to the door. We will be back again as due to Irish weather I never got the chance to have my coffee outside and take in the amazing views.

This place is little hidden gem in the most idyllic location, just a stones throw from some of the most beautiful beaches and view points on the wild atlantic way. The host has taken no shortcuts with this place. The bed and sofa bed were incredibly comfortable. The shower was fantastic. The kitchen facilities impecable. Sitting in the hot tub over looking the water with a fire burning really was the icing on the cake after a long winter stroll around Fanad head and Portsalon beach. We took two toddlers and a dog with us and the cabin was very comfortable for all of us. The wifi speed in incredible too. No expence has been spared here. The communication with host was fantastic. He gave us really excellent recommenadations on places to eat and visit. We will absolutely definitely be back.

Retreat to Davey John’s Cabin This place is a kin to the Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia. You couldn’t ask for a nicer place to runaway from it all. Tucked away behind the old blacksmith’s forge and seamlessly run by Shane from the Forge Cottage is Davey John’s cabin. This place is a hidden gem in north Donegal. The cabin was so immaculately presented I thought I was the first guest to tip over its threshold. The cabin is toasty warm with adjustable thermostat. There is everything you could need in a kitchen, gas hob & oven, all utensils, cutlery etc. In the living area - it is beautifully decorated with the couch long and comfortable. Large screen adorns the far wall where Netflix, Prime etc are provided free of charge by Shane. The bed is kingsize fit for a queen !! And you will sink into restful sleep after days of fresh air, sight seeing and plenty of local foods. The Chimenea is just outside your cabin door , again Shane will provide you with all the firewood you could ask for - relax outside on the outdoor sofa , listen to birdsong with the wind singing through trees, looking out over Mulroy Bay, glass of wine in hand. I even cooked atop the chimenea- locally sourced fish of course. You couldn’t ask for a more peaceful romantic setting to take a break from ‘it’ all. One thing is for certain - I will be back, perhaps a winter break ❤ Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference

Shane’s Airbnb is the perfect spot for a little getaway. The lodge itself is spacious and luxurious, with all the necessary amenities you need for your stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will hopefully be back again soon!

The cabin was finished to a top standard, the interiors were all so cosy for the log cabin appeal. Shane was very quick on any queries and had a lovely bottle of wine and chocolates on arrival too. Hopefully we will be back again soon as it is so close to numerous beaches and walks!

We had a wonderful stay in this cosy cottage in a beautiful part of the country. Lots of stylish decorative touches, and the lounge and master bedroom were lovely. Shane, our host, was extremely helpful and communicative, and responses to requests straightaway. The lovely bay is right across a (fast but quiet) road from the front of the cottage and Shane had a kayak available if desired; there was good outside space; excellent location with close proximity to amazing beaches and scenery. In all, a great place to say.

Shane’s place is absolutely stunning - interiors of the toasty cabin look like they’ve been done by an interior designer! Everything done to such a high standard and quality, with a real cosy and homely feel. Shane was a wonderful host! Very quick to reply and all sitting perfect for us to arrive at the time that suited us best. Let’s not forget a very kind and thoughtful complimentary bottle of red wine and box of chocolates. Lots of yummy restaurants close by including an amazing sourdough bakery “An Sourdough Beatha” and the popular “Singing Pub”. The perfect stay thank you very very much! Couldn’t recommend highly enough and can’t wait to come back!
