Splendid isolation

Cottage is in a perfect spot from which to explore the county of Donegal such as Errigal, Tory Island, the stunning beaches, loughs and more all within easy reach by car. The cottage was a quiet refuge to recharge and go out exploring the following morning.

Beautiful location

Absolutely breathtaking views and a nice traditional cottage. The gardens are lovely and feels very secluded due to being down a small lane, however, is close to the local amenities. Des was a great host with good communication.
