The Hotel and Setting
Harvey’s Point is a 4-star hotel and spa on the shores of Lough Eske, 6km from Donegal Town in the foothills of the Blue Stack Mountains. The hotel has 64 suites and rooms, all facing the lough. It has been voted Ireland’s best hotel by TripAdvisor users multiple times and consistently features in lists of Ireland’s top country hotels.
Lough Eske is a freshwater lake within the Blue Stack Mountains, one of the most remote and unspoilt upland landscapes in Ireland. The combination of mountain, lake, and forest habitat surrounding the hotel makes its environmental management significant for the preservation of a genuinely wild landscape.
Donegal has more coastline than any other county in Ireland and contains some of Europe’s most dramatic Atlantic scenery, including Slieve League, Malin Head, and the Fanad and Inishowen peninsulas.
