The Mill, hotel in Dunfanaghy

Situated in Dunfanaghy and only 2.3 km from Killahoey Beach, The Mill features accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The view of the lake from the most delightfully cosy room was amazing. The gardens are very well kept, and im sure must be beautiful in the summer when the flowers are in bloom. All the little extras in the room made our stay very special. It was warm and very comfortable and clean. There was a great choice on the breakfast menu, all deliciously cooked to.perfection. The mill is just a short walk from the town centre or a few minutes by car.

    Dunfanaghy itself could have maybe another shop or two for appealing to tourists. I noticed bus trips stop there. Unfortunately a derelict hotel opposite Arnold’s hotel is a bit of an eye sore. Have heard it may have been purchased by a new owner so that may improve things.Arnold’s itself has good outdoor appearance. In general seems a friendly community , and near a number of picturesque and beautiful beaches.

    I love Donegal and would never leave without a visit to the old workhouse for a coffee, a browse in the craft shop and maybe pick up a used book or two. A staff member recommended a lovely walk this time around as well. Another favourite is a visit to Ards Friary, lovely coffee there too after a walk along the sea and a visit to the beautiful little beach, perfect for the grand-children so will have to let them into the secret. Ostan Loch Altan in Gortahork is a great wee place to eat and very reasonably priced too.

    Very busy this time due to heatwave & the fact people had missed out on earlier holidays this year. The beaches in Co Donegal are fabulous. We ate in “ The Cove”, Arnold’s hotel & The Shannon hotel Yes, easy to get round Dunfanaghy - just a long Main Street. We would avoid week- ends too busy!

    Ended up staying an extra night! Close to the town but when you leave the town you benefit from escaping the noise and traffic to tranquil surroundings. Lovely rooms and great facilities. Made to feel very welcome and a relaxed atmosphere. Well organised and breakfast was fantastic too.

    The Cove restaurant was a very pleasant experience, beautiful food and friendly owner and staff. You have to try the fish. Then the beach, what a beautiful day we had, friendly people too. Pity we couldn't try the horse riding because of covid.

    The Mill has a lovely location on the lake just outside Dunfanaghy. Donegal, beautiful old house, comfortable lounge with fireplace for wet days, although we had sunny weather and beach walks nearby. Susan is a welcoming host, showed us around the Mill and our room, and presented us with a gift of a half bottle of chilled prosecco, most welcome and unexpected. Comfortable room with view of the lake, only one small quibble, a better shower would have been nice, although the one over the bath worked fine.

    Loved our stay at Annes house. The house itself has absolutely everything you could need. Kitchen has every type of utensil you could think of. Beds were very comfortable, house was very clean. Anne was great to communicate with as well, Very prompt and helpful! The house itself is set about 8 minutes drive from Dunfanaghy, We liked that we were a bit outside of the town, you would definitely not get the views or peace and quiet if you were in the centre. We Would love to come back!

    This place was a slice of Paradise. It's more like a quaint hotel than a B&B. I traveled back to visit home in Ireland with my partner from Texas. He had never been and was amazed by this place too. HIGHLY recommend it. The staff were really friendly. Breakfast was gorgeous. The first morning I had a full Irish, then next I had smoked Atlantic salmon and scrambled eggs all of which were cooked to perfection. They also had interesting things like vanilla seaweed pudding.

    We loved our stay at The Mill. It is a beautiful and extremely comfortable property, with lovely gardens and a stunning view over the lake. Our hostess made us feel very welcome and shared good advice about nearby points of interest. We enjoyed excellent breakfasts in the warm, sunny dining room. There is a comfortable sitting room and also a conservatory where guests can relax, read a book, or share a glass of wine without feeling crowded in together.

    Perfect for our family of 5. Áine our host was really helpful, even leaving us a plate of rocky road for our arrival. The house was ideal, spotlessly clean, with all we needed for our stay. We had a lovely time in Dunfanaghy and can't wait to come back -> 10/10.

    Hotel is in a great location, amazing views - go for the sea view room (the rooms at the back of the hotel just look on to a hill). Rooms are basic but clean. Restaurant is fantastic - food and service was excellent.
