Best stay ever!!!!!
We both had a wonderful break away here! Sheila and Michael are super hosts,.so welcoming and friendly, couldn't be more helpful! Room was huge with a lovely balcony overlooking the sea view. Gorgeous bar area.... so comfy! Outdoor hot tub was a major bonus, beside a waterfall, again with sea view. Little teddy bear dog "Lady" is just so charming and precious! We will 100% be back!! Thanks for everything Shelia and Micky and hope to see you again soon xx

Overlooking the Foyle
I thought the B&B was on the sea but it would probably be a 15 minute uphill walk to it. However please dont let that deter you staying here. The view is spectacular and if I can I will post a video. Sheila our host was just an amazing, friendly lady and nothing was a bother to her. Room was very spacious and exceptionally clean. We filled in a breakfast card with a great choice from fresh fruit, fruit juice, cereals and cooked breakfast with choice of items too. In the current covid-19 situation all guidelines are being adhered too with masks being worn and sanitising station at the front door. There is a very comfortable relaxing area upstairs with a fridge and bar area where you are welcome to bring your own drink too.

Unforgettable experience
It was amazing. Beautiful room with en-suite and a privet spacious dining room with a view over to the sea. Hosts are friendly and welcoming. We felt like home. Delicious food, professionally served with nice soothing music in the background. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Would recommend to anybody who wants to spend really pleasant time and get value for money.

The perfect stay
Really enjoyed our stay at TempleView were nothing was too much trouble. We had arrived late due to a change in ferry and was a little worried about finding somewhere to eat but the owner was kind enough to ring the local restaurant for us and then even gave us a lift down after we had unpacked. The room was amazing and it was a shame that we only had the 1 night booked. We both decided over breakfast that we will definitely return for a longer stay to make the most of the view from our balcony.

Great place to stay but quite remote.
Great place to stay, fabulous views, excellent host, well signposted. Reasons we couldn't give it all full marks:WiFi is quite slow, curtains are a bit short so let the light in quite early, towel rail quite low (and not heated so towels still wet in the morning if you shower at night) easy to stand up into the towel rail from the loo. No USB charging points that we could see.
