200 yr old Georgian house located in beautiful Co Donegal 10 mins from beach

This wonderful restored Georgian country house offers the perfect retreat either for a quiet, luxurious weekend, or for a weekly family holiday creating special memories. Step though the classic entrance door to ‘The Old Rectory’ and discover this beautiful Georgian home.

The house is steeped in history, with the famous hymn/poet Cecil Alexander living at the house during the 19th Century. With its sweeping treelined driveway, beautiful views of Lough Swilly, impressive reception rooms, all with magnificent period open fireplaces, it’s the perfect house for getting together in style.

The stunning area of Fahan is situated between the City of Derry and Buncrana, with direct access to the Inishowen 100, a spectacular ring road around the Inishowen peninsula. Fahan is also conveniently situated between the Glenveagh National Park and the Giants Causeway which are areas of outstanding natural beauty.

‘The Old Rectory’ has been owned by The Dorrian Family since 1976. It has been an incredibly happy home for many years and we are proud to share this wonderful place with other families. Creating their own cherished memories!
