Gougane Barra Hotel
Gougane Barra, . Ballingeary, Ireland – Excellent location - show map
This was the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in, whether in Ireland or abroad. The location was magical and ethereal, the food was fabulous, the staff was so welcoming. I booked a single room and when I arrived I found I had been upgraded to a double room with a lake view. I will definitely be back.
