Cruit Island Holiday Homes<\/h1>\r\nCruit is one of the main islands of the Rosses, now joined to the mainland near Kincasslagh<\/a>. The Gaelic word Cruit can mean \u2018a small harp\u2019, or \u2018a hump or a little hillock\u2019. The island resembles a harp just enough to allow the more poetically minded to opt for that derviation. Cruit is one of only two inhabited islands in the Rosses, the other being Arranmore, a big change from the time, just a generation ago, when most of the islands of any size were populated. Cruit is connected to the mainland at Belcruit by a bridge built at the time of World War II, and the bridge, some of the finest beaches in Donegal and the golf course<\/a> combine to make the island a very popular destination.","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[999,1077,82,81],"class_list":["post-153","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cruit-island","tag-cruit-island","tag-donegal","tag-holiday-homes","tag-self-catering"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCruit Island Holiday Homes<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Cruit Island Holiday Homes -
