SHMBO and I are heading up to Donegal soon hoping to catch some sessions around Gweedore. Can anyone recommend a decent, reasonably priced place to stay in the area? Like somewhere within walking distance of a session?
Errigal Youth Hostel in Dunlewey...wonderful place, can't recommend it highly enough. Great people, great view. It's at the foot of Errigal Mtn.The session at Heidi Beag's (Gweedore)is about a 10 minute drive. Don't know if you'd call that walking distance though.
Thanks for all the suggestions. We've managed to book ourselves into Bunbeg House down by the harbor for 70 euros a night. Might even make it to Tory Island!

Heidi Beag? The little shepherd girl that blew in from the Alps?

Thanks, but sorry, SWMBO is definitely not into hostelling. We're looking for a decent B&B or a reasonably priced hotel in the area.

You can download the b&b lists & numbers

Huidi Beag's also does Bed and Breakfast I believe but you should doublecheck with them. I know they definitely rent out bedrooms upstairs.

Truth of the matter is I have only been to Indiana twice. Each time on my way from Illinois into Michigan. So, it was north of French Lick.
