The Brae Cottage


Free Wi-FiTraditional PropertyOpen FireCot & Highchair

The Brae Cottage is ideally located in the heart of farming countryside in Donegal, boasting spectacular views overlooking Grianan Aileach fort, Wild Ireland and the City of Derry. 4mins from Burnfoot village and 9mins from Muff village. The cottage itself has the character of a homestead that was built in the late 1800s but enjoys the modern comforts as it evolved through the generations. It is a house that knows how to make you feel welcome and at home. You will understand when you get here.

Hi, I'm Majella. I will be hosting you during your stay at the cottage. The Brae Cottage is a holiday rental in the countryside near to Burnfoot village and a short drive from the centre of Derry. From the property, the stunning views overlook Derry city, An Grianan Aileach and Wild Ireland. 

Surrounds of The Brae

The cottage is surrounded by farmland with beautiful country walks. The yard is secure for children to play. If sitting with a cuppa or glass of wine whilst taking in the views and enjoying the quiet country surroundings is your idea of relaxing then the cottage is for you. 

Inside the Brae

Cottage has two bedrooms (2x double beds + 1x single bed) One bathroom with electric shower + small toilet room. 1x family/living room with TV, WiFi, wood-burning stove. Second sitting room with an electric fire and desk area. Outside area with small walled garden. Ample parking space. WiFi at the property. When arriving at cottage access is via lockbox and I am always a phone call away for anything you need.

What they say

Great house and Great Location

Excellent clean comfortable and safe location that is private but close to amenities. The house suited our needs exactly. The house was very comfortable, safe and clean and I was very impressed with both the house and the Hosts as we had some extra requirements on the day we were leaving and they were happy to help. Great house, Great location (10 mins from Derry City and 15 mins from Lisfannon beach)
