Rudy's farmhouse is a magical and unique dwelling nestled amidst the hills. The animals are so engaging and hilarious and all have definitive personalities, including the chicken! His breakfasts and dinners are, hands down, the best I've had in Donegal. And, the coffee is exceptional, too! I would recommend Under the Alders to anyone who needs to sit by a fire and have a restorative respite on the countryside near the sea. Or a writer who needs solitude to work. Or an adventurer who needs a place to rest and fuel up on gourmet breakfasts before embarking on a full day excursion! I felt like part of the family when I left and I'll definitely be back!
