Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Giovanni ScoziaGlasgow, UK74 contributionsThree of us visited here and had a really good experience. It started with the shuttle driver who was friendly and a great joke teller! The estate is marvellous with stunning scenery and there is a real feeling of history here. Special thanks to Janet in the gift shop for her warm welcome and efficient courteous manner and also to Hugh, one of the gardeners we spoke with as we toured the walled garden. They are a credit to the estate operation. Definitely a trip not to be missed when in the area.Written 11 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- NeilDDublin, Ireland11 contributionsGlebe is so impressive: atmospheric, beautifully located, authentic, and holding a world-class collection of art. Our guide Kevin was incredibly knowledgeable, and made the tour of the house even more special. Lovely cafe too, with proper baking. Highly recommended.Written 1 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- KFM328uk5 contributionsI have been staying in the Mount Errigal on Business during April and May 2024.
What a wonderful Hotel, all the staff are very friendly and helpful.
However, I must mention one particular member of staff that currently works in the Bar Restaurant, her name is Orla.
Every time she serves me she gives a Masterclass on how customer service should be delivered!!
She is extremely polite, confident, friendly and so professional at all times; she is a credit to the hotel.
I will be staying at the Mont Errigal for the next couple of months and Orla makes my stay very special and enjoyable.
Well done Orla!!Written 20 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

When we arrived, our group received a great welcome from Clive, Michael and Staff who went above and beyond their duties in giving their time in making sure we had a most enjoyable visit. It was a wonderful experience visiting the Mini Zoo of Tropical World Birds, 🐦 🕊️ Parrots, 🦜 Reptiles, 🦎 Creepy Crawlies, Monkeys 🐒 🐵 and other Mammals.
It was lovely to see the most beautiful and exotic Butterflies 🦋 in free flight from all across the world.
Tropical World is a very interesting place and well worth visiting.
A great day was had by all. We look forward to returning when it opens up in 2025.,🥰🎉🦜🐦Written 24 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Culture6825446210610 contributionsSerene and beautiful, it dominates the skyline. Then, walking up the hill it hits you again. It is gigantic but graceful and elegant.
The interior is breathtaking as well. Stained glass and wood, but more than that.
It made me want to be a Catholic.Written 25 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

They are ALL far better than anything produced at Ireland’s monopoly of mediocrity in St James’s Gate. There’s also a wide range of cans and bottles from the brewery. The bar is in a corner of the brewery and separated from it by a big window. The decor is minimalist, in the modern fashion. The regular bar staff are friendly and knowledgeable. There are board games for those who are bored with the company they keep, plus an eclectic range of background music. While I’m old enough to appreciate a bit more cosines than this bar offers, I’m also wise enough to know that Kinnegar offers much, much better drink than anywhere else I’ve been to in the county. And the drink is, after all, what it’s about.Written 29 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- ATourishCounty Donegal, Ireland45 contributionsVisited the theatre on 11th November for The Lost Brothers concert. It was just a fantastic evening of beautiful music and the venue had strict Covid prevention procedures in place ie social distancing inside the theatre and inspection of Vaccination Certs and wearing of masks. Recommend it to everyone 🙂Written 13 November 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Bren WMuff, Ireland652 contributionsWell worth a visit, this small museum is curated by friendly and helpful staff. There are a good range of exhibits for all the family to enjoy, particularly upstairs and the downstairs displays rotate regularly.Written 8 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Beatriz R9 contributionsWe found this place online as a must-visit. I’m not too fond of visiting graveyards but the reviews were too high not to. It’s very easy to get there if you have GPS but there are lots of signs on the way too. The place is in a quiet area surrounded by fields and cows and the views from there are outstanding.
