  • Luxury log cabin with Blue Stack Mountains views in County Donegal
  • Ten minutes’ drive to Donegal Town; Rossnowlagh Beach 20 minutes
  • Private patio, barbecue and hot tub; famed pub five minutes’ drive
For a rural County Donegal bolthole with a lavish dollop of luxury, consider a stay at Hilltop Hideaway. Ten minutes’ drive from Donegal Town, this custom-built log cabin has spectacular views over Lough Eske to the Blue Stack Mountains, and it makes a peaceful country escape from the pressures of everyday life. Styled and furnished to an exceptional standard, the cabin can sleep up to four, with one double bedroom (bedding, towels and complimentary slippers are included in the deal) and a sofa bed in the spacious living room. There’s a shower in the ensuite, and the smart kitchenette has a microwave and fridge. Outside on the private patio, you can spark up the barbecue or soak in the hot tub with a glass of bubbly (and those mountain views), while at the front of the cabin there’s a sheltered decking area with seating for simply… chilling. Should you need to top up supplies, there’s a basics shop five minutes’ drive away, and if you fancy eating out at all, the well-known Biddy’s O’Barnes pub is about the same distance away.

Local attractions

Donegal Town (10 minutes’ drive) is home to Donegal Castle, built in 1474 on the banks of the River Eske, and now open for tours of its ruined Jacobean manor house and vast apartments with vaulted timber roofs and Gothic-style stonework. The town is also packed with buzzing pubs, so when you’ve had your cultural fix, you can grab a pint of the black stuff and maybe join in with any live music. Out in bracing sea air, admire the stunning County Donegal coastline on a Donegal Water Bus cruise from the town pier, marvel at the highest cliffs in Europe from the Slieve League Viewing Platform (an hour) or head for dune-backed, sandy Rossnowlagh Beach (20 minutes) with the surfboard and get out on the waves. Continuing with the watery theme, check tide times and head to the Secret Waterfall (35 minutes), found in a sea cave and only accessible on a scramble over rocks at low tide. Another local landmark is Saint John’s Point Lighthouse (40 minutes), worth a visit for the drive itself down a long, narrow peninsula with sea views on both sides.
