Fort Royal Hotel is a 15 bedroom country house hotel, just outside
the village of Rathmullan on the shores of Lough Swilly in North
Donegal. Fort Royal has been run by the same family since it opened
as a hotel in 1948, and although many improvements and renovations
have been carried out since, the same principles in hospitality
are still used today.
There are many return visitors to the hotel which is easy to understand
when you first come through the front gates. The hotel is situated
in 18 privately owned acres of mature trees, gardens and lawns the
front one of which leads right down to the beach. Fort Royal is
also renowned for its award winning cuisine, friendly regular staff,
comfortable bedrooms and lounges, and a very special home-from-home
atmosphere. It is the perfect place to escape to for peace and tranquility,
or as a base to explore the fascinating county of Donegal. |

The hotel has a very good reputation for
its fine cuisine, with the table d'hote dinner menu changing daily,
depending on what raw ingredients are available and in season.
As you might expect with the seaside location, there is a daily
supply of fresh fish, which when cooked simply is one of the highlights
of the menu. There are also locally caught lobsters, scallops
and mussels available throughout most of our season. The hotel
uses two award winning butchers from the nearby area, for the
supply of all meats, including Donegal mountain lamb. Fresh vegetables,
fruit and herbs are brought in from the hotel's walled kitchen
garden on a daily basis. Guests are encouraged to walk around
the garden whenever they want.
|
| There are 15 bedrooms in the hotel, all with private bathroom
and because of the design of the building all but 3 have a view
of the sea. All of the bedrooms have a television and telephone
and are furnished to a level of comfort and taste as befitting a
country house hotel. Five of the bedrooms are classed as superior,
purely because they are slightly larger than the standard rooms.
Relax in the hotel's lounges and bar, all of which have log fires,
antiques, fresh flowers and comfortable armchairs. |
