Common questions

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in from 3 pm, check-out by 10 am. We’re happy to arrange a later check-out where we can; it depends on how many guests are arriving that day and the cleaning turnaround.

Can we walk to the village, or do we need a car?

We’d recommend driving or taking a taxi. Carrigart is about four kilometres away along a busy road with no footpath, so it isn’t a walk we’d advise, especially around dusk or after dark. If you do walk it, wear something hi-vis and bring a torch. The local taxi (Speedy) is the easy way in and back, and there’s a Monday to Saturday bus past the bottom of the road.

How do we get around, by taxi or bus?

We keep a list of local taxis and transport in the getting-around section of our Donegal page.

Are dogs welcome?

Yes. We just ask you keep them out of the bedrooms and off the furniture, and there are poo bags by the door; please clean up after them.

How many does it sleep?

Up to six, across three bedrooms.

Can we use the hot tub and sauna any time?

Yes. The hot tub is yours 24 hours a day while you’re staying, and so is the sauna.

How many does each cabin sleep?

Two.

Does each cabin have its own hot tub?

Yes, a private hot tub each, yours any time of day.

Can we use the sauna and games room?

Yes, both are shared across all the stays.

Can we book just one cabin, or all three stays together?

Either. Each cabin books on its own, for two. If you’d like more room you can also take the whole place on one booking: the cottage, both cabins, the sauna and all three hot tubs, up to ten guests with no one else on site.

Is the garden enclosed for our dog?

Yes. Each cabin has its own enclosed garden, so your dog can be off the lead safely.

Is it included in a stay?

Yes, shared across all the stays at no extra cost, any time of day.

What kind of sauna is it?

An electric hot-stone sauna.

Do we need to book a slot?

No. There’s no booking system; it’s first-come, and it’s never been a problem in practice.

Is the hot tub shared too, or private to our stay?

The hot tubs are private. Every stay has its own hot tub, yours alone for your stay. Only the sauna and the games room are shared across the stays.

What’s the wellness offering?

Private hot tubs at every stay plus the shared electric hot-stone sauna. Locally there are massage therapists, and Soleful Sanctuary for reflexology.

What’s the nearest course?

Rosapenna is closest, about 8.5 km (10 minutes) to the links, and 8.2 km (11 minutes) to St Patrick’s Links. Portsalon Golf Club is 21 km (23 minutes).

Anything for a non-golfing partner?

Plenty: the sauna, the hot tubs and the games room, plus everything to do nearby.

Does the cottage suit a family?

Yes, it sleeps six, has a garden, and there’s a travel cot and a high chair for the littlest ones.

Is there anything for the kids?

The cinema is always a hit, and the games room is a recent addition.

Which stays take dogs?

All three.

Any rules?

Out of the bedrooms and off the furniture, with a quick clean-up after them. There are often other dogs on site, so please keep an eye on yours.
