With the troubles behind it, Derry offers a tourist friendly environment coupling old and new attractions with plenty of up to date shopping experiences. Paedar O'Donnells will not disappoint for live music and a great pint of Guinness. The Walled City brewery located in an old military barracks has great local beer and wonderful food.

Beautiful area of Donegal
The property was very clean and just as described and suited us and our exploration of the area in Donegal and day trips into Derry, as well. It was remote and quiet...just what we wanted! We were able to cook in the evenings allowing our driver to enjoy a glass of wine. The scenery was stunning. Beds super comfortable.

Use Mamore Gap or Loch Mamore
There was no way to find the property with the address, post code, the host gave us. I Used google maps, and another SatNav and neither got me close to the location. My sister put in Mamore Gap and recognized the cottage as she was driving up the hill to the gap. A neighbor who’s number was given in the directions came to find me. We were in separate cars.

Wobbly start in a little piece of heaven.
Reservation was very smooth. On arrival we had difficulty with the key safe. None of us could open it and we had no coverage on our phones. We drove to Mrs Jackson's who contacted Paddy Mc Daid who sent his daughter to open the key safe. We had been given the incorrect code and incorrect phone number on the website. The rest if the holiday was Brilliant and the house great. Very high standard of equipment in the house.
