Reveller Lodgings, a property with a bar, is located in Donegal, 13 km from Donegal Golf Club, 27 km from The Balor Theatre, as well as 27 km from Killybegs Maritime and Heritage Centre. The property is around 38 km from Narin & Portnoo Golf Club, 44 km from Raphoe Castle and 47 km from Beltany Stone Circle. Slieve League is 48 km away and Sean McDiarmada Homestead is 49 km from the guest house.

What a great location in the heart of Donegal! Really modern room above a very popular pub, but high enough above that we didn't hear a bit of pub noise. Lots of restaurants nearby, and Donegal Castle barely 5 minutes away. On-street parking is free from 6 pm on, and cheap at 0.50 euro/hour up to that time. Terrific base for exploring the Wild Atlantic Way. One small gripe: the little green lights recessed in the ceiling that are always on, which are apparently required for emergency lighting in case of fire.

    We had a perfect stay at dolmen lodge. The accommodation is spotless, cosy and relaxing. Ideal location if you are looking for a quiet relaxing break. Margaret was a great host, she ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend. Thanks!

    Nice quiet location. Just what we needed after being in a bustling city before we drove here. It’s just a short drive from Donegal city centre and if you just need something from the local convenience store, there is a service station just down the road which has most things stocked. The property has a lovely little kitchen and dining area. But by far the best part of this property was the fantastic communication from the host, Aisling.

    Great location right off the Main Street close to local bars. Handy shops walking distance too for sticking up for drinks, snacks and breakfast. Liked the design and furnishings - felt like a boutique hotel. Really comfy beds. Thoughtful welcome package on arrival with cocktails and chocolates. The host was lovely and made sure we had a superb staycation. Clean and tidy, exactly like the pictures. Can’t wait to come back.

    A great house immaculately clean couldn’t be in a better spot. Best placed house for a rental in Dungloe I’d say with the Main Street around the corner but quiet enough to manage a good sleep with no disturbances. Sarah was a great host. Nothing was a bother to her. Wi-Fi great speed and reliable. Comfy beds. Good big rooms. Well decorated. Spotless throughout. Lovely spot for breakfast just beside the house on the Main Street. Deposit repaid in full as promised. Really enjoyed it and will be back.
