Rathmullan House Hotel
About
Rathmullan House is a charming Georgian country home perched on a scenic cliff overlooking Lough Swilly in County Donegal. Set on seven acres of mature garden beds and a 3 km golden‑sandy beach, the hotel offers an idyllic retreat for couples, families and solo travellers seeking a quiet break from the bustle of city life. The property boasts 31 individually styled rooms – ranging from cosy two‑bedroom suites to spacious family rooms that can accommodate up to six guests. Every bedroom comes with an ensuite bathroom, fresh‑filtered water, handmade Irish toiletries, free Wi‑Fi and a flat‑screen TV; superior rooms even feature a walk‑in shower and a free‑standing bath. Accessibility is a priority – on the ground floor there are walk‑in showers and a wheelchair (or scooter) ramp, and guests who need special accommodation can request it in advance. Dining is a highlight at Rathmullan House. The on‑site Cook & Gardener restaurant opens nightly with a daily changing menu that showcases locally sourced fruit, vegetables and fresh seafood harvested off the coast of Donegal. The restaurant also serves seasonal lunches and would be a perfect spot for a leisurely brunch. Two lounges and Batts Bar lounge provide a relaxed environment for afternoon tea, coffee or a casual drink by the open fire. In addition to its welcoming rooms and fine food, the hotel offers practical amenities such as electric car charging points, room‑service toiletries, free Wi‑Fi, a shower, laundry service and a baby‑sitting service upon request. For guests with young children, the family rooms feature a separate bedroom for the children, a double room for adults and the option for travel cots. Guests can reserve rooms directly through the hotel’s own website via the ‘Book Now’ button present on every page, and the hotel also accepts voucher bookings and provides a dedicated ‘Gift‑Vouchers’ section. With its blend of traditional charm, modern comforts and a stunning natural setting, Rathmullan House offers a tranquil getaway that feels a world away from the everyday.
