Welcome to your cosy Donegal escape, perfectly located for family adventures, golf, beaches and hiking. Just 5 minutes from Downings, Rosapenna Golf Resort, Spa na Mara and the Donegal Boardwalk.

This delightful and spacious holiday home has been designed to ensure a relaxing and comfortable holiday experience. The cottage is set in a tranquil rural location outside the village of Carrigart.
The emphasis in this luxurious holiday home is very much on space and comfort. Every room is large and luxuriously appointed. The home has all the mod cons you need to ensure maximum convenience for your self-catering holiday experience.
The holiday home is situated on the beautiful Rosquil Peninsula. This peninsula divides Mulroy Bay and Sheephaven Bay and contains spectacular scenery as well as many fine sandy beaches. The famous Atlantic Drive is a short but very dramatic road around the Peninsula. The drive is only about 12km long so you can best appreciate it if you cycle or walk. The walk can be comfortably completed in half a day.
The natural landscape of the Rosguil Peninsula provides the basis for many of the activities that the visitor can enjoy. In addition to an abundance of golden sandy beaches there are many water based activities in the Carrigart/Downings area - including windsurfing, deep sea diving, sea angling and boat charters. There is also horse riding and hill walking.
For the golf enthusiast the holiday home offers an excellent base to play some of the great links courses of North Donegal. A 5 minute drive brings you to two superb championship golf links at Rosapenna - the Old Tom Morris Course and fabulous new Sandy Hills Course.
Moving outside the immediate locality you can explore beautiful and varied coastal landscapes in such areas as Horn Head, Bloody Foreland, the Rosses and the Fanad Peninsula. The enchanting Ards Forest Park near Creeslough is well worth a visit.
Moving inland you have the majestic and unspoilt Donegal Highlands where the stunning Glenveagh National Park is situated. In this area you will also find the wonderful Dunlewey Lakeside Activity Centre which provides an excellent day out for all the family. Tory Island and the ancient and historic walled city of Derry are just two of the varied day trips that can be made from the holiday home.

Congratulations on an absolutely wonderful site! I was going crazy researching availability on other sites - that did not state price, no. of rooms, bathroom facilities often (even after clicking three or four links) and also did not follow a pattern for each entry. Your site is delightful. I could go through all pages of entries and with the price details given immediately did not need to waste time over entries not within my budget.
