We set out to Gleann Cholm Cille with the idea of a quiet, peaceful holiday before our baby arrives, and that's exactly what we experienced in Leatitia's old school cottage in Mín na Cross. The location in South West Donegal is stunning and the accommodation is perfect for a couple's retreat: no phone, no internet (though it took some time to adjust to the different information patterns!), a cosy sitting room with a majestic fire place, mountains and sheep all around us. The facilities were very good, a very well stocked kitchen, clear instructions from the host on how to use everything, and an architecturally interesting building dating back to pre-independence times. The locality is brilliant to say the least: driving through gorgeous valleys, mountains, windy bog roads, hidden beaches and there's lots of history embedded in the place from the Stone Age times. We absolutely loved our stay there and would thoroughly recommend it. Just make sure you have a car, plenty of fuel, and good maps (some were provided in the cottage)!
