Property Description

Errigal Hostel is nestled beneath Errigal Mountain in the lakeside village of Dunlewey, County Donegal in Ireland's Northwest. It is the perfect location to base for a few day's exploration of the nearby mountains, beaches and Glenveagh National Park. The modern building encompasses floor to ceiling windows which look onto Lake Nacung and the surrounding Derryveagh mountains in front, and the majestic Errigal at the back. It is situated on the Wild Atlantic Way and and is a 20 minute drive from Donegal airport and 30 minutes from Letterkenny.
Errigal Hostel has been an integral part of the local Gaeltacht community for over 45 years. We offer a comfortable place to stay and a convenient point from which to explore the many walks, trails, hikes and climbs that the surrounding hills have to offer. We are a short drive to the stunning white sand beaches that line the rugged coastline and the gorgeous gardens and castle located in Glenveagh National Park.
Visitors stay in mezzanine-style dorms or en-suite private rooms. The panoramic vistas invite guests to watch the sun rise or set over the mountains, while the cosy snug is perfect for relaxing in the evenings. The fully equipped self-catering kitchen allows guests to dine at their leisure.
Affiliated with Hostelling International and an Eco-Flower winner, the hostel has an ethos of sustainability and recycling which lessens the impact of travel on this untouched environment. Friendly bi-lingual staff are experts on the locality and can recommend the best activity providers in the region varying from hill-walking to surfing or rock-climbing. Donegal was recently named 'coolest place on the planet' by National Geographic and one of the world's best drives' by Lonely Planet. Come stay with us and find out why!
