That’s it! Your Donegal escape could be waiting… 🌊🔥✨

But the BIG question is…

WHICH COTTAGE IS CALLING YOUR NAME? 👀👇

🏡 THE GARDEN COTTAGE & CARRIAGE HOUSE

Perfectly positioned between two Wild Atlantic Way beaches, our two-bedroom cottage pairs traditional Irish character with dramatic black walls, an eclectic collection of antique furniture, art and treasured objects.

Lose yourself amongst shelves of books, pick up the guitar or violin, or get creative with the art supplies. Outside, Lake Mullaghderg provides a breathtaking backdrop to your private firepit, hot outdoor shower and Will Carr’s kinetic sculpture Wisp. 🔥📚🎻

⚓ THE CAPTAIN’S NEST

Perched on a rock above Bunbeg Harbour, where the River Clady meets the Atlantic, this intimate stone cottage is packed with old Donegal charm.

Think antique furnishings, maritime details, a traditional fireplace and gorgeous harbour views filling every window. An acoustic guitar awaits — with a bodhrán, banjo and flute available on request — celebrating West Donegal’s legendary traditional music scene. 🎶🔥🌊

🌊 COBBLESTONE COTTAGE

Perched high above the Atlantic on Arranmore Island, our original stone cottage offers sweeping views across the ocean and wild island landscape.

Authentic cobblestone floors and antique furnishings meet hand-forged copper lighting, a vast open stone fireplace and a steaming-hot outdoor copper shower. ✨

Outside, a peaceful Zen garden surrounds Will Carr’s bespoke Serenity sculpture, while winding island roads lead past freshwater lakes towards Arranmore Lighthouse. 🌊🔥🌙

So tell us…

✨ Step inside Cobblestone Cottage, where every flickering flame tells a different story… 🤎

No two stays are ever the same. We believe every guest deserves a little magic, which is why we love curating each visit around you—whether that’s a romantic escape, a peaceful retreat, or a celebration to remember.

Curl up beside the crackling open fire with a steaming hot chocolate, or uncork a bottle from our carefully selected specialty w**e list and lose yourself in the pages of one of our beautiful collection of historic books. Time slows here, inviting you to savour life’s simple pleasures.

At Cobblestone Cottage, every visit becomes its own story… and we can’t wait to help you write yours. 🕯️📚🍷🔥

Having anxiety that can feel crippling at times, along with struggling with body dysmorphia, can really hold you back day by day. So when I was asked to become a BA for through their exclusive Insider Club, I honestly questioned whether I could push myself that far.

It’s crazy & sad how hard we can be on ourselves. The fear of negative comments and posting pictures of myself actually held me back from posting this for over two weeks. But today, after a walk on the beach, I decided I want to accept who I am and be proud that I was even asked to represent this brand in any form!

So… here goes 🤍

I was gifted this stunning necklace from , and I genuinely love it! Getting any item that spells my name correctly gives me such a buzz 😂 Be sure to check out their website and use my link for 10% off all your orders - https://www.dylanoaks.com/RACHAEL68597

And remember — it’s okay to not be okay. It’s okay to have bad days. The most important thing is picking yourself back up, remembering your worth, and not letting the opinions of others stop you from reaching your full potential ✨

Still not over the most incredible gifted stay this weekend at 🤎♾️
This cottage on Arranmore Island honestly feels like someone stepped inside my mind and built my dream cottage. From the cosy open fire, to the sea views, the shelves of old books… and that unreal HOT outdoor shower — every little detail was perfection.

I feel so lucky to have spent a weekend here ✨
If you’re looking for a magical getaway, you have to check this place out!! 🤎

I’ll be sharing more from the trip soon, but for now I’ll just be here… staring at these photos and pretending I never left 🫶

Thank you so much , I can’t wait to meet up more and collab in the future! Grateful to the universe for letting our paths cross 🙏🏼💖 You are everything I aspire to be! 🙏🏼💖
