Cannot even begin to describe the hospitality Bernie and Steven showed my husband and me! The room was absolutely immaculate with the most gorgeous view over the river, the church across the street and of Donegal Castle! Donegal was the first stop in Ireland as we toured the country and I have to admit, we left a bit of our... More

Bernie and family are so warm and welcoming, they make you feel right at home in their lovely B&B. Rooms are CLEAN and the view is great (the river and Donegal Castle). Breakfast is the traditional Irish fare, if you wish (soooo delicious), but cereal, fruit, yogurt and a selection of breads is also offered. There is a comfortable, warm... More

Double ensuite room was tiny, barely had enough space for luggage. Thankfully room was warm enough. It would have been nice to have hooks inside the bathroom and a bathroom mat too as tile floor was freezing after a shower. Very nice lady who provided lots of info about the area.

Lovely, helpful couple run the place and are very welcoming. Great value rooms, 2 with en suite and 2 with shared bathroom. Nice warm place to stay on a budget. Great place, very central to town right across the river from the old castle and beautiful bridge.

The family were really lovely and Bernie is a really nice and friendly person. They made us feel so welcome and nothing was a bother. Bernie gave us some ideas on good places to eat, which turned out to be very good. The rooms had great views and we gained information about the area from the family. I found the... More

Bernie is really lovely, and the guest house is in a beautiful spot overlooking the two bridges, very central to the town. There was a plastic undersheet on the mattress, which, as we're not incontinent, I hated. The shower/bathroom was very , very tiny. Breakfast was really nice, and Donegal is a pretty little place.

Really nice people, pretty and clean rooms, delicious breakfast, excellent location on a quiet street overlooking the river but within a stone's throw from the town centre - true value for money!

I had a very nice stop here. Bernie & Steve were very kind. The price was very good and the location even better. Breakfast was included and very nice too. I ate dinner at the 'Olde Castle Bar' across the river which was well worth it too.

Just got back from a lovely stay at The Bridges. Bernie and her family were great hosts to us. The bedrooms are lovely and very clean. Its lovely to lie back in bed and listen to the river which is on the other side of the road. The only slight drawback is not having a TV in your room, saying... More
