A Great Base for a Beach or Golf Holiday

Carrigart is situated at the entrance to the beautiful Rosguill peninsula which is dotted with beaches, small coves and rugged headlands.  The fabulous Tramore Strand at Rosapenna and Downings Beach are just 3km north of the holiday home.  There are numerous other quiter and more secluded beaches along the peninsula including Melmore and Tra na Rossan. Downings Village is the start for the famous Atlantic Drive – a wonderfully scenic route around Rosguill.

Less than 3 km from the holiday home is the fabulous Rosapenna Golf Resort which features 2 championship golf courses- the relatively new Sandy Hills course and the Old Tom Morris Course. Both these courses are consistently ranked in the top 25 links courses in Ireland. The magnificent Portsalon Golf Club is also in the top 25 links courses and is located just 16km east  of Carrigart. Dunfanaghy Golf Club (22km) is another fine links course in the region.

Glen Lough

Tourist amenities in the Carrigart area include the PADI approved Meevagh Diving Centre which offers diving training all year round and the AIRE approved Carrigart Riding Stables. Nearby Downings has the indoor Magherabeg Lisure Centre featuring a 20 metre swimming pool. The tiny village of Glen on the shores of Glen Lough is 5km west of the holiday home. This is the location of the Old Glen Bar which is renowned throughout the region for its bar food. It is also the location of Glen Lough – a renowned fishing lake.

North Donegal

Not only is Carrigart the ideal base to explore the Rosguill Peninsula, it is also centrally placed between two more of Irelands most beautiful Peninsulas – Fanad and Horn Head.  Heading towards Horn Head the visitor will pass the renowned Lackagh Bridge, the majestic Ards Forest Park, the Creeslough Lakes , Muckish Mountain and the popular beach resorts of Marble Hill, Portnablagh and Dunfanaghy. In the Fanad direction you have the dramatic Fanad Head Lighthouse, the Knockalla Coast Road and the holiday resorts of Portsalon and Rathmullan. All three peninsulas are ideal walking terrain.
