Our group stayed for a couple of nights and we were made to feel like part of the family. The rooms were very comfortable and extremely clean. The breakfast again was great and served with a smile. Would recommend this B&B to anyone

The Arkle House, Bed and Breakfast is welcoming, comfortable and homely. It is ideally situated just outside the Derry city centre, which is only a 35 minute walk away, or a 5 minute drive. The breakfast is absolutely wonderful

Having read some of the other reviews since our visit I think some of the reasons others have given a low mark are very petty and undeserving. We didn't have any trouble with noise or children but I always appreciate that when... More

We were meeting up with a friend and her family that we had not seen in 30 years. The owners were able to put us in a cozy living room so we could get reacquainted without disturbing the other guest. We were also able to experience our first Irish breakfast, which was yummy. The rooms were very nicely decorated and... More
