Historic Donegal Town

Donegal Town is one of the 5 designated Heritage Towns in Co Donegal. This vibrant town is of great historical interest and has numerous tourist attractions. Donegal Castle stands beside The Diamond, overlooking the River Eske. Guided historical tours of Donegal Town take place on a daily basis during the summer and the Waterbus takes you around Donegal Bay. The ruins of Donegal Abbey, situated on the bay, are open to the public. Located on the Diamond is the renowned Magee of Donegal. Opened in 1866 this historic shop has a great selection of tweeds for both men and women and beautiful knitwear and a large range of casual wear. The quaint Donegal Craft Village on the outskirts of the town is well worth a visit.

The local pubs have entertainment most nights with music to suit all tastes. Donegal Town also has several first class hotels and restaurants.  Just outside the town, on the shores of Lough Eske, are two of the finest hotels in Donegal - the 5 star Solis Lough Eske Hotel and the multi award winning Harveys Point Hotel - the latter hotel has a wonderful Cabaret Night which runs during the holiday season. We can offer a free taxi to the hotels on request(to the hotels but not back!!)
