What's at The Hideaway
Four glamping pods at dusk at The Hideaway Muff, Donegal, with warm interior lighting
There's nowhere quite like The Hideaway. Combining the charm of a restored 1895 house, four individually designed glamping pods and a collection of unique social spaces, our private estate offers something a little different for group getaways in Donegal.
The Shebeen is often the heart of the weekend — your own traditional-style BYOB bar with a pool table, darts, karaoke, smart TV and a roaring wood-burning stove. It's the perfect place to gather after a day on the golf course, celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy an evening with friends.
For quieter moments, there's the covered hot tub, the Wee Céilí House with its open fire and pizza oven, and peaceful gardens filled with little surprises, including an ancient fairy path and wildlife pond.
And when it's time to celebrate, dine together or arrange an activity, An Bothán provides a dedicated space for group meals, entertainment, workshops and retreats.
All yours to enjoy, with no other guests sharing the property.
