Culdaff

The village of Culdaff is a five minute walk away and the beach is a mile away.
Culdaff itself is visually charming, its present layout dating back to the 18th century. McGrorys is a well known family run pub in Culdaff, established in 1924, noted for its fine food, traditional Irish music and warm welcome. On the premises is the famous Macs backroom bar, - one of Irelands premier live music venues featuring artists from all over the world.

Surrounding Area

Culdaff lies in the northern part of the Inishowen peninsula, - a unique, scenic microcosm of all that Ireland has to offer. The Inishowen Peninsula The Isle of Owen is bounded by the Atlantic ocean in the north, Lough-Swilly to the west and Lough Foyle in the east. The historical city of Derry is situated at the south eastern edge of the peninsula, while its southernmost boundary is overlooked by the ancient stone ring fort known as the  Grianan of Aileach. The peninsula has spectacular scenic drives, including the famous Inishowen 100. - This self drive tour which is roughly  100km long, includes Buncrana, Dunree Head, Leenan Head, Ballyliffin, Malin Head, Culdaff, Moville, Greencastle, Inishowen Head and Muff on its route. There are many natural attractions with some of the most breathtaking scenery for miles.

In the summer months, the driver can extend the tour across the northern part of Ireland by making use of the ferry service available from Buncrana to Rathmullan across the Swilly, and from Greencastle to Magilligan Point across the Foyle.

Shore walks, Hill walking, Fishing and Sea Angling, Sailing, Surfing and Swimming, are just some of the activities available for the more energetic. For the golfing enthusiast, the well known Golf Club at Ballyliffin is not far, and there are also golf clubs at Greencastle, Buncrana, and Redcastle.
