The sitting room offers a homely feel, with a lovely open fire to light on cooler evenings, before sloping off to sleep in one of the three bedrooms on offer, including two doubles and one twin. A ground-floor shower room services the bedrooms, where you can prepare for your coming days, starting off locally in the village, where you can stock up on the essentials, dine out, try your hand at kayaking and windsurfing at Rathmullan Bay Beach, or hike through Rathmullan Wood.
