The Certification

The Hotel and Setting
Ballyliffin Lodge & Spa is a 4-star property in Ballyliffin village on the Inishowen Peninsula, County Donegal’s most northerly landmass. The hotel has 40 rooms, a spa, and a golf academy, and sits adjacent to Ballyliffin Golf Club, home to two links courses that hosted the Irish Open in 2018.
The Inishowen Peninsula is one of the wildest and most remote corners of Ireland, bounded by Lough Foyle to the east and Lough Swilly to the west, rising to the cliffs of Malin Head, Ireland’s most northerly point. Ballyliffin sits at the heart of this peninsula, surrounded by Atlantic links landscape, bog, and the Urris Hills.
