Beautifully restored 2 bedroom traditional stone cottage that sleeps up to 5 people, nestled into the side of a hill, surrounded by beautiful scenery with fishing and hiking trails just outside your door. There is also horse riding, surfing, golf and bicycle hire all nearby. If you are in the mood for some local tradition and award winning food, Rose cottage is located near two lively country towns Ardara (5km) and Glenties (1km)
The area surrounding Rose Cottage is filled with beaches including Maghera beach which is filled with caves and has horse riding available and Narin beach which boasts the Narin and Portnoo golf course said to be the finest natural and scenic 18-hole course in Ireland. The Sandfield pitch and put is also nearby.
This area has also been described as a fisherman's paradise. The Owenea River runs through Glenties town and is famous for its salmon and trout fishing. It is also ideal walking terrain.
