Clooney Lake in front of the holiday home borders the fairways of the wonderful Narin & Portnoo Golf Links. The club house of this popular golf links is just 1 km from the front door.

The golf links is bordered by the fabulous blue flag Narin Strand. This wonderful sandy beach is over 3 km long. Just 250 metres off the shore is Inishkeel Island. This historic island can be reached on foot at low tide by crossing a tidal sand bank. The low tide allows you around an hour to visit the sites, before walking back again.

Narin and its sister village of Portnoo are small but attractive holiday resorts on the northern shores of the Dawros peninsula. The Dawros Peninsula separates Gweebarra Bay from the Bays of Loughrosmore and Loughrosbeg and its landscape is dotted with numerous tiny lakes and a quilt of low hills. The countryside of purple heather, small patchwork fields, streams and gentle glens makes interesting terrain for the enthusiastic walker. In addition to Narin Strand the peninsula has a number of fine beaches including Tramore near Rosbeg. The coastal roads on the Peninsula are now part of the Wild Atlantic Way - Ireland long distance driving route.
Just over 2 km from the holiday home is the Kilclooney dolmen, probably the best-preserved portal tomb in the country. The capstone is over 4m long and the structure is reckoned to date from around 3500 BC – making it much older than Stonehenge. Another historic site naerby is Doon Fort - an ancient circular stone fortress positioned on an island in the middle of Lough Doon. Although its walls are crumbling, the fort has been untouched for over two thousand years. The walls stand 5m high and 4m thick.

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.
