    Someone told me this is closed and I can't find the site anymore. Is it really gone? Is anyone trying to bring it back & does anyone know what's happening with it now?

    I was wondering the same thing.

    I know Mary who ran it was elderly and hadn't been well a few years ago but I have heard nothing since.

    I often made cycling trips to that area and always stayed there. It really was unique and Mary is a wonderful character. I'd love to go there again but fear it's closed unless someone knows otherwise.

    Tried calling and phone number gone. Its over 400km away from me so I can't just rock up and have a look through the window

    I'm probably about 45 miles from there so unfortunately I don't have any knowledge of it. Maybe look up a number for the local post office and give it a ring to see if they know anything.

    Give Byrne's Foodstore & Filling Station a call, they should be able to tell you.

    This is what I love about Donegal. Can't find the person/info you need. Ask someone local and they'll tell you.
