Arches Country House can be a little challenging to find (especially in the dark), but it is well…read moreworth the trip. It is adjacent to a beautiful lake and surrounded by fir trees. Your hostess, Noreen McGinty (her website reminded me), is wonderfully warm, but not strange or overly nosy as some hosts on our journey could be (five long years ago). She reminded us of our moms and told us about how her son lives in America (I can't remember where). Anyway, her house was so tidy you could eat off the floors. Her breakfast was yummy and Donegal is amazing. I say this about most of Ireland, but Donegal is just even more beautiful than those parts of Southern Ireland that everyone raves about. It is more remote, more green, more insane views. When we go back again, I want to rent a cottage in Donegal and just soak it in (and I am not a nature person). The Arches is approved of by the Irish Tourist Board and, according to their website, is recommended by Lonely Planet, fancy schmancy. The rates are currently listed at 65 to 70 Euros for a double room.

We booked this B&B the day before and we were glad we did.

The breakfast area is like a small restaurant. The B&B is very 'homey' in appearance with decor from the 1950s or 60s. The innkeepers are very nice and helpful. Breakfast was the full Irish and very good.

The house was derelict and they fixed it up with as close to period detail as possible and they really did a excellent job. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated in victorian style.

The drive up the lane teleports you into a Secret Garden and once reach the hilltop, the view overlooking the town and mountains stops your heart. The cabins themselves are white stone and super cozy. Breakfast is served anytime at the main house where the fireplace sets a lovely ambience. With those memories in the back of my mind, I packed up all my belongings and high-tailed it over here a month ago. The place is just as amazing as I remembered. The views are unbeatable, and property is well-maintained, the decor is rustic yet classy. There's love and care in every nook and cranny. Finally, Paula and Bobbi are both ... gems!

From the friendly greeting from Margrite and Peter, our hosts, to the ever so accommodating staff our stay here was the best of our trip. The accommodations were beyond comfortable with several areas to relax and take in the Atlantic views or sit in the evening by a quiet fireplace. The breakfasts included your choice of Full Irish, smoked mackerel over scrambled eggs or the fluffiest tastiest pancakes you'll ever have. Not to mention the scones, granola, yogurt and fresh fruit waiting for you each morning. We actually extended our stay another night and will definitely be returning on our next trip to Ireland.
