kitchens, and living rooms. Two also have large hot tubs for up to six people. Another family-friendly option in the area could be the Inishowen Gateway, which offers a more typical hotel setting with ample facilities like a pool, a gym, and a restaurant, but rooms don't offer kitchens.

Scene
Three quaint cottages in a countryside setting
Millstone Cottages are a little off
the beaten path on a beautiful green landscape in the Irish countryside. Rocky white paths lead to the three quaint and cozy tan
cottages with stone entrances that are surrounded by green fields and trees.
There's a children’s playground on the property enclosed in a country fence,
but that’s as far as the property goes in terms of on-site features. These cottages are popular with vacationing families and couples that are looking for an independent getaway. While there's no round-the-clock on-site service, the owners are just a phone call away and provide guests with knowledge of local places to see and things to do.
Location
Secluded location within driving distance of local points of interest
The Millstone Cottages are
located in the countryside in the northern part of Ireland, just south of the Wild
Atlantic Way. The cottages are
best-suited to those with a car, as there aren’t any restaurants or points of
interest within walking distance. Donegal is an hours’ drive south, while the
town of Milford, with outdoor
activities such as fishing and horseback riding, is a six-minute drive away. Letterkenney, a 25-minute
drive, provides family fun with bowling and go-karts. There's a Lidl supermarket in Milford and a Tesco with a delivery service in Letterkenny. Glenveagh National Park
takes 27 minutes by car and Gortnavern, a burial site that holds the remains of two
ancient lovers, is a 20-minute drive away.
Rooms
Three self-catering cottages, each with three rooms and kitchens; two have hot tubs
The property's three two-story self-catering
cottages have the kind of quaint, homey atmosphere expected of secluded countryside
getaways. The decor fits with the easygoing feel of the location, with wooden floors
in the main areas, leather or upholstered couches, blond-wood bed frames and
doors, maroon-tone and white or patterned linens, and homey touches such as flowers in vases. Cottages have three bedrooms each and sleep up to seven guests, making it a perfect set up for
families and large groups. All units are wheelchair accessible and have free parking for up to two cars, but heating and electricity cost extra. Each cottage has a furnished private
deck with a grill, a living room with a flat-screen TV, couches, and a fireplace,
plus free Wi-Fi. Full-sized kitchens have refrigerators, microwaves,
stoves, ovens, and dishwashers. Utility rooms house the washers and dryers, and
there are irons and ironing boards for guests to use. Bed linens and towels are
provided for free. Cottage One and Cottage Three each have their own hot tubs housed in separate outdoor buildings; Cottage Three also comes with a small sauna. Each of the three cottages has two bathrooms with shower/tub combos and power showerheads.
Features
Fun, interactive wooden playground with a zip-wire line
As a property with three self-catering cottages, the Millstone Cottages offers little in the way of amenities beyond the wonderful children’s
playground. Set on the only patch of dirt on the luscious green property, the
playground features two
towers, a bridge, small rock-climbing frames, swings, and a zip-wire line.
