Simons Cottage ::

Tariff 2009

This tastefully restored cottage is located in Derryhassen, Downings near the starting point of the famous Atlantic Drive. The cottage itself is over 100 years old and is known locally as Simons Cottage. It has been extensively restored in the past year in a manner that tastefully combines modern comforts with old world charm. Some of the wooden beams supporting the roof came from a shipwreck along the nearby coastline. A small stream runs along the front of the cottage. An elevated area at the rear of the property offers panoramic views of Sheephaven Bay.

If the outdoors attracts you then this charming cottage is your ideal base. It is located in a part of Donegal renowned for its dramatic beauty – long sandy beaches, spectacular sea-cliffs, hidden coves, windswept peninsulas and ancient forests.

The cottage is conveniently placed for golf, fishing, hill walks, horse riding and water sports. It is 1 mile from Downings which is a very popular tourist resort and fishing port with lively pubs and night-life. There are several magnificent beaches in the immediate vicinity. The nearby Rosapenna Golf Links boasts two renowned 18 hole championship courses. A further 2 miles brings you to the picturesque village of Carrigart where you will find an equestrian centre and a diving centre.

Within a thirty minute drive of the cottage there are numerous things to do and places to visit. You have the majestic Glenveagh National Park and the beautiful Ards Forest Park. The lakeside centre in Dunlewy has something for all the family. In Dunfanaghy there is a workhouse famine museum. Churchill has the famous Glebe House & Gallery as well as the Colmcille Heritage Centre. Letterkenny has all the amenities you would expect to find in a large town - cinemas, museum, theatre, leisure centres, art galleries and excellent shopping.
For day trips Tory island and the ancient walled city of Derry are highly recommended.

So whether you want to enjoy the great outdoors or simply want to unwind and relax Simons cottage  provides the ideal holiday base.
