A large and spacious newly built home
with all the amenities that one might expect for a pleasant and
comfortable stay. Ideal for large families or groups, with four bedrooms
to
sleep up to 8 adults. A large kitchen and dining area, a utility room
for laundry, a main bathroom, four en-suites and a downstairs toilet for
ablutions, two living rooms, each with its own fireplace and tv.
Outside, a
decked patio area, and an enclosed back yard. Not far from
the main road between Culdaff and Moville, and only a
3 minute walk to
the village
green, the cottage would also serve as an ideal touring base
for Northern Inishowen and surroundings.
Culdaff is one of
the most northerly towns in Ireland, and is near Ireland's most
northerly point; - Malin Head. Situated in picturesque surroundings on
the north coast of the Inishowen Peninsula facing the North Atlantic and
on the banks of the estuary of the Culdaff River.
Culdaff has been in existence since the 8th century, when it was the
early monastic settlement of St Buadan, though the present village
layout is based on an 18th century plan. The existing church is built
over the foundations of the old monastic church.
 Today,
Culdaff has become popular for its "famous" hotel, restaurant and pub
known simply as
McGrory's; where one can experience good food, great "craic"
and excellent service. This
family run establishment has been running
since 1928, and has as its main attraction; "Mac's Backroom Bar", a
venue for musicians, with many famous names
having performed here over the years.
 An
annual event in the village is commemorated in October to
honour the memory of Charles Macklin, an 18th century playwright,
comedian and actor who
was born near here in 1690. His plays were performed in Dublin and at
Covent garden in London. He died in 1797 aged 107.
A lovely sandy 'blue flag' beach lies just a mile away; and if the wind
is right, the waves will be perfect for surfing. On the west side of the
beach lies a little fishing harbour and Bunagee Pier.
Some of the local activities would include:
Walking, fishing, surfing, swimming, canoeing. Golf
at the nearby Ballyliffin or Greencastle courses. There are other
golf courses at Buncrana and Redcastle and Derry.
The scenic beauty of Inishowen cannot
be ignored when visiting this unique part of Donegal and Ireland; - and
a tour of the peninsula, following the "Inishowen 100"
drive is recommended. It follows a circuitous route over approximately
100 miles around Inishowen, and takes in virtually all the lovely
coastal and mountain scenery, towns and villages along the way. Because
one will be tempted to stop many times en-route to appreciate the views,
the journey will take more than a day to complete; - so plan
accordingly! |
