This sweet, modern B&B just outside Donegal Town is set between soothing green hills on one side and lovely views of Donegal Bay on the other. Hosts Joan and Liam create a genuine and warm atmosphere. Rooms are comfortable, spacious, and spotless. The homemade breakfasts are excellent—try the delicious porridge with honey and cinnamon. Cove Lodge is about 3.5km (2½ miles) from the town center; if you don’t have a car, a taxi out here costs around €6.
