Overlooking the Foyle

I thought the B&B was on the sea but it would probably be a 15 minute uphill walk to it. However please dont let that deter you staying here. The view is spectacular and if I can I will post a video. Sheila our host was just an amazing, friendly lady and nothing was a bother to her. Room was very spacious and exceptionally clean. We filled in a breakfast card with a great choice from fresh fruit, fruit juice, cereals and cooked breakfast with choice of items too. In the current covid-19 situation all guidelines are being adhered too with masks being worn and sanitising station at the front door. There is a very comfortable relaxing area upstairs with a fridge and bar area where you are welcome to bring your own drink too.

Unforgettable experience

It was amazing. Beautiful room with en-suite and a privet spacious dining room with a view over to the sea. Hosts are friendly and welcoming. We felt like home. Delicious food, professionally served with nice soothing music in the background. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Would recommend to anybody who wants to spend really pleasant time and get value for money.
