Robins Rest is a unique cosy Timber cabin situated in the heart of Rossnowlagh, on a small sheep farm. With the lucky guests that arrive in Spring will be delighted to meet our woolly new arrivals.A great opportunity for all to come and hand feed newborn lambs. also our adorable shetland pony who loves her cuddles. Robins Rest is a perfect break away for those who love the peace and quiet of the countryside and yet just 2.4kms away from one of Donegals most popular beaches, perfect for an evening stroll. Smugglers creek Inn is a very popular place to enjoy a meal and look out over the beautiful sea and rossnowlagh beach.Just a quick 8 minute drive to Ireland oldest town, Ballyshannon.only 7 minutes drives Castle Adventure Open Farm is perfect for children and parents alike with a cafe onsite for a quick bite to eat after a great day playing and feeding the animals. Only 16kms away in Bundoran Town you can enjoy a 6 screen cinema, Bowling and amusements. There is also a large variety of cafes and restaurants to choose from. Donegal Bay Waterbus is a great tourist attraction and is only 18kms from Rossnowlagh. It is also a great place for a night out for a meal and drinks. An onsite babysitter is available if mummy and daddy fancies a late night out.
Hi 👋 . I really love meeting my guests . I enjoy hearing how there experience has been touring around Ireland as many guests can tell me much more than i know my self about Ireland. I was a carer before i had my dream come true to be a hostess. I do this because i love to see people wind down and just take a breath of fresh air away from the hussle and bustle So when you arrive relax and enjoy the Robin's Rest with of course a lovely cup of teas and coffees and a baskets of sweet treats and its relaxing ,peaceful gardens looking out at the beautiful green hills of rossnowlagh.
Rossnowlaghs beautiful Blue flag beach which is only 2.4km away is one of Irelands top surfing beaches and is perfect for a relaxing stroll.There is no shortage of places to eat out so enjoy a tasty meal in Smugglers Creek,Gas Light Inn which are well renowned for there tasty meals with there stunning sea views and the beautiful Sandhouse Hotel also only 2km away.The surfers bar is a lovely place to have a drink and to here some local live music .Robins rest is 6km from the renowned Murvagh golf club. Murvagh beach is also an amazing beach to visit. A great place to take the kids is the Castle Adventure open farm which is only 10 min drive .A great hit with the children and parents .They have a wonderful cafe as well for those to relax after a fulfilled day. There are horse riding stables 12 mins away near bundoran also a great cinema only 20min away with an executive lounge to relax and put your feet up and watch a movie in comfort. There is also ten pin bowling alley in bundoran to enjoy which is 2 min walk from the cinema.
