Woodhill House is a charming old manor house in a lovely little town. The room was spacious and clean and the area was very quiet. Breakfast was delicious, though they only start serving at 8:30am so plan accordingly. John was a very welcoming host and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Woodhill House if you are in the Ardara area.

The highlight of our entire trip to Ireland. We needed a place to stop for the night during our travel from Northern into Southern Ireland. We wished we would have stayed longer here. This bnb is an absolute delight! John, the host and Karen were incredibly welcoming and hospitable. We stayed in the carriage house with beautiful garden view, great to stroll through. The views surrounding the property were beautiful. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfy. The breakfast Karen made was delicious…our first try at black and white pudding which were yummy. Thanks to John and Karen, they provided us with recommendations for other sites to see along our trip. We will always remember this stay!

What a delightful stay in a well styled Manor. All the rooms are tastefully appointed & in keeping with the era which gives a warm homely feeling to your stay. Delightful staff eager to help, made our stay even more homely. The showers are difficult to use & perhaps a queen bed to replace the double size would be our only positive criticism. Despite these small criticisms the stay was just delightful.

We loved our stay at the Woodhill house. The host was amazing. We enjoyed a late dinner, drink, and conversation in the cozy bar/lounge the night of our arrival. Breakfast the following morning was delicious and the staff was very attentive. The property is older and needs some TLC, but still charming and well worth the money and drive.

A hidden gem in Ardara —peaceful, charming, and relaxing. I stayed with my family at Woodhill House in Ardara for one night during our recent trip to Ireland, and it was easily one of the most memorable stays of our holiday. The house is nestled in a secluded, bucolic setting surrounded by beautiful gardens, mature trees, and stone work that add to its peaceful charm. The atmosphere was incredibly serene, a true retreat from the hustle and bustle. The house itself felt more like a warm, welcoming home compared to any other place we stayed. It’s full of character, with personal touches, family photos, antiques, and heirlooms that give it a rich sense of history and comfort. The bar and dining areas are equally inviting. The dining room is elegant without being stuffy, and the bar/den is cozy and full of charm. John, the owner, was friendly and very accommodating, and all the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They were kind, attentive, and genuinely interested in us and our trip, which made the experience feel even more special. The included traditional Irish breakfast was one of the best I had during my entire two-week trip. It was generous, absolutely delicious, and beautifully prepared. Ardara is truly a special place. I can't recommend "Triona - Donegal Tweed Visitor Centre" enough! I would highly recommend staying here, and I’d return in a heartbeat. A truly special place that feels like stepping into a peaceful, well-loved corner of Ireland.

This is a super cute bed and breakfast. We stayed in the outer building in a family room. It was absolutely beautiful with a little balcony overlooking the cutest little garden. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was excellent. My only complaints were the Wi-Fi did not work great in the outer building and there was zero pressure in the shower head but we just took a bath instead and that was great.
