“Amazing home, so comfortable and the decor is so sophisticated, we loved all the wall hangings & trinkets.”

Beach on our doorstep was a bonus & we loved Belle's. The only downside was that we had to leave. Thank you so much. Travers Family

“We could not fault 3 Coastguard Station at all.”

It is a welcoming homely property that had every amenity required. It has been a thoughtfully restored historic building that just feels fab and truly cared for by the owners. The location of the house could not be more perfect, we loved the convenience of ditching the car and being able to walk to local restaurants and the pub is just a few doors down! We adore the beach so having it literally on your doorstep is both practically and visually amazing, great for our sea dips too! The window seat in the cottage is my favourite spot, the beach and sea view was simply stunning. We have been regular visitors to Rathmullan for 14 years and when our usual holiday home was sold last year we were so sad because we didn’t think we would find another to match it. Lucky for us we feel we hit the jackpot with 3 Coastguard Station and look forward to returning again soon. Separately, we would like to commend the property owner on being responsive to our queries before and during our stay. It took Sykes 2 days to respond to our initial query and by that time we had already arrived at the property. They then took another 2 days to fully answer by which time we had checked out of the property. We are lodging a separate complaint around Sykes customer services which should absolutely have no reflection on the property or owners. We paid a high rate for the property via Sykes and would expect they have high standards of customer service to match, sadly that was not our experience. It was our first time using Sykes and we would be reluctant to use them again in the future. It would be such a shame if Sykes shoddy customer service damaged business for the property, the owner's don’t deserve that because the property is excellent.

Thanks Roisin, We very much appreciate your review and rest assured we will be onto Sykes Cottages to insist that they provide the customer service that our guests deserve. We look forward to having you as guests again very soon. Kindest, Jenni Property Owner

“The house is beautiful - very cosy, stylish and welcoming.”

It is in a fantastic location and we had so much fun there. It helped us truely fall in love with Donegal. We were very sad to leave and look forward to hopefully being able to book the house again next year.

- Suzie, June 2024

Hi Suzie, We’re so glad that you enjoyed our home as much as we always do. It’s nice to be able to share a very special place with others. Have a wonderful summer and we look forward to having you as guests again. Property Owner

About the location

RATHMULLAN, COUNTY DONEGAL

Letterkenny 15 miles.

Nestled on the shore of Lough Swilly on the Fanad Peninsula, the quaint village of Rathmullan has a colourful history. It was from here that the last of the Celtic chieftains fled Ireland, now known as the Flight of the Earls, and there is an interesting heritage centre in the village commemorating this vital event in Ireland’s history. This sleepy seaside village offers a variety of local shops and pubs and a long sandy beach ideal for lazy days. The Fanad Peninsula is a haven for walkers, hikers and nature enthusiasts, and boasts a stunning coastline. The summer ferry crosses Lough Swilly to Buncrana, opening up Inishowen and beyond, and it’s only a short distance to the town of Letterkenny.
