Tastefully restored in recent years, Sissly's Cottage has a traditional Irish cottage layout and now provides comfortable self catering accommodation for up to 4 people. A special feature is the high vaulted main living area which gives the cottage a very spacious feel.

The nearby Ballyliffin Golf Club, with its marvellous contoured fairways, is a course that adds new meaning to the phrase ‘a natural golf links'. The links courses at Ballyliffin have received the highest accolades from top golfers. Nick Faldo described the course as "the most natural golf links... a hidden gem." Fred Daly described it as "a real Jewel." And Ireland's Ryder Cup players Darren Clarke and Ronan Rafferty have tested and approved it. In fact, the north coast of Ireland can now boast several links courses on a par with Royal Portrush, making this a mecca for golf enthusiasts.

The Inishowen Peninsula, wherein the Isle of Doagh is situated, stretches between Lough Foyle and Lough Swilly, to reach Ireland's most northerly point at Malin Head. The drive round this expansive peninsula is spectacular with fine views of mountains and sea. The numerous lakes and rivers provide good game and coarse fishing. Just 2 miles away is the beautiful Glenevin Waterfall with its walks and picnic area. Buncrana with it's comprehensive range of shops is accessible in about 20 minutes.

Nearby activities include: Golf, Pitch & Putt, Doagh Island Visitors Centre, Quad Trekking, Pony Trekking, Nature Walks, Sandy Beaches, Fishing, Photography and Bird and Wildlife Observations.

The Doagh Visitor Centre (5 min drive) provides a great variety of exhibitions telling the story of Famine, Fear and Eviction. It is also a place where the customs, traditions and history of the people of Inishowen are preserved in a permanent way. The scenes include a Mass Rock, Presbyterian Meeting House and Orange Hall.
