the house had all you require for a short break and the owner was there to greet us on arrival and she made us feel welcome and explained heating switches etc the house itself was in a lovely and private site if you are looking for a quiet spot near the water with good views this is the house for you .
A great little cottage with lots of character, and the location is stunning. The TV is there, but when you can sit by the patio doors and look out on the little bay that's so close you might as well be on the beach- who needs it?! Everything was clean and tidy, beds were comfy. We had fantastic weather which always helps any visit anywhere, (although the log fire was already set for us should we have needed it) but we loved this place- can't think of anything bad to say about it. We definitely hope to return.

My fiancé and I had a lovely relaxing weekend at the boathouse a couple of weeks ago! The house itself is full of character and beautifully decorated. Right beside the sea,this little place offered privacy and serenity! I would definitely recommend for anyone wishing to enjoy some peace and quiet and enjoy the sound of the waves! Thank you.
We stayed for two nights at the Boathouse and had a very comfortable stay. It has a beautiful location set a few steps from the shore, though there are more neighbouring properties around than what we expected, however that was not a problem for enjoying a break away and privacy. The fire was set upon arrival. We would recommend that if staying in the winter months, then extra coal should be bought because the coal fire is needed to keep the house warmer. We bought 20kg of coal at the local convenience store next to Kealy's in Greencastle for under 11 euro. We enjoyed some lovely walks around the coast and drive to Moville coastal walk. There are restaurants, bars and shops within a 5 minute drive from the Boathouse. The house itself had all cooking appliances to make our stay as homely as possible. There is a modern shower room and three bedrooms in a spacious home.

Had a lovely stay here. Very peaceful location and nice touch by the owners to have a fire ready to light to keep us cosy. Unfortunately didn't see the seal, but would recommend this cottage to anyone seeking a quiet relaxed holiday. We hope to return one day .
The Boathouse is in an absolutely perfect location: directly by the water with it's own beach, sufficiently distant from the other houses so it doesn't feel crowded and it even has it's own gray heron in the morning :-)
There's a wonderful cast-iron bench for sitting outside, the only thing we missed was a table of some sort for having tea and scones in the afternoon.
