The property shares the same field as an ancient earthen ring fort which guest are welcome to visit. Enjoying breath-taking countryside views In Kilraine Upper, situated between Glenties and Ardara, County Donegal, in The Ring Fort Lodge, a delightful, single-story retreat. Stylishly furnished with art deco-inspired features and contemporary fixtures, The Ring Fort Lodge offers an exclusive feel for two guests looking to enjoy a romantic break in the Irish countryside. Park up, unload your belongings, and take in your new abode, complete with a spacious patio, to enjoy an alfresco affair throughout your stay. Be welcomed by a fabulous, open-plan living space, complete with antique furniture, a plush velvet sofa, a handy breakfast bar, and a fully equipped kitchen, all oozing a sleek feel, where you can prepare meals, dine, and unwind. If the weather allows, throw open the patio doors and pour yourself a refreshing glass of wine before catching some rest and climbing into the sumptuous king-size bed. Complete your morning routine in the contemporary wet room, carrying through the home’s chic ambience, before heading into Glenties or Ardara for your nearest hub of amenities.
As a host my main focus is for guests to have an unforgettable experience. I want them to have privacy and also know I’m available for anything they need. I have been hosting for 3 years now and I love meeting new people from all over.
A 2000 year old earthen ring fort sits above the property which is accessible to guests. Ardara has beautiful beaches such as loghrous point and also maghera beach. Maghera has several caves so it’s wise to check the tide times to make sure the tide is out. There is also a very popular waterfall on the drive down to the beach with parking. Portnoo and Naran beach have toilet and shower facilities. There are restaurants and bars and also a golf course. Ardara also has a pitch and put course. Another stunning beach is Rosbeg, this beach is more secluded and dose not have facilities but is definitely a stunning beach that is dog friendly. The area offers visitors many opportunities to hill-walk in the Bluestack Mountains and enjoy the scenery of the Bluestack Way, as well as the chance to explore the many other glens, mountains, dozens of lakes, and the rugged Atlantic coast with its sweeping bays and wide clean beaches.
