One of Donegal’s best-known hotels has failed to find a new owner at auction.

An Ostan, Gaoth Dobhair, went under the hammer at at AllSops auction in Dublin with a knock-down reserve price of €590,000.

However, the hotel failed to attract any bidders.

The 32 bedroom hotel, which has its own leisure centre, sits on a stunning site of 76 acres at Bunbeg.

The property also comes with 6 holiday apartments overlooking the North Atlantic Ocean.

When it was opened the hotel was a hugely popular venue for weddings and other functions because of its stunning location.

There were hopes that if the hotel is re-opened, it would bring a much-needed jobs boost back into the area.
