Rock Ridge Cottage - Buncrana

With a location just over 2 km from Buncrana Town centre this cottage has the best of both worlds  - a tranquil countryside setting yet with all the benefits of a vibrant modern town a short distance away. Not only that, but it is also a central base to explore the beautiful Inishowen Peninsula and the historic Walled City of Derry.

Newly Renovated Holiday Home

The cottage itself is deceptively spacious. There are two bright and spacious bedrooms with one enjoying lovely sea views. There is a stylish modern fitted kitchen and dining area. The cosy living room also enjoys sea views. The large bathroom features a bath and wet room style shower. There is ample parking around the cottage and a newly laid lawn to the front.

It has a full range of tourist amenities, as well as fine restaurants and lively bars. The town boasts a leisure centre and swimming pool, cinema, golf course, pitch and putt, play park, clean safe sandy beaches and many activities for children.

Located Along Donegals Wild Atlantic Way

Scenic highlight on the Inishowen Peninsula include the Fort Dunree Military Museum, The Gap of Mamore,  the Famine Village on the Isle of Doagh, the Glenevin Waterfall and Malin Head - a signature Point on the Wild Atlantic Way.

For the keen golfer there are 2 golf courses just a few minutes drive from the cottage - Buncrana Golf Club and the Northwest Golf Club at Lisfannon. The super Ballyliffin Golf Club is just 23km away. The landscape of the Inishowen Peninsula is ideal for the rambler and hill walker with a variety of hill and coastal walks.

Rock Ridge Cottage is also an ideal for those who wish to explore historic Derry City from a more a tranquil base.
