Quareview - Dungloe

Quareview is a brand new detached bungalow hugging the shoreline of beautiful Dungloe Bay. Giving gorgeous vistas across the bay to the fishing village of  Burtonport to the north and the majestic Aranmore Island to the west, there truly is a “Quareview” whichever way the eye may wander. With direct access to the bay, for boating or fishing, this beautiful home is available for rent all year round on a Saturday to Saturday basis.

Local Area

The quiet, friendly townland of Saltpans is a paradise for walkers, swimmers, fishermen, painters and photographers. Sandy beaches and a relaxed pub are available in the local village of Maghery, less than twenty minutes walk away.(5 mins in car)

Golfers have a choice of courses at Cruit Island, Gweedore and Portnoo, or for the less adventurous, pitch and putt course and tennis courts are available in Dungloe.

Dungloe

Dungloe is the main town less than a ten minute drive away. This is a popular shopping and socializing centre for the people of The Rosses. Every year thousands of people from all over the world flock to the famous Mary from Dungloe festival.

Within twenty minutes drive there are a host of local festivals each summer e.g. Annagry, Burtonport, and the renowned MacGill Summer School/Festival in Glenties. And let’s not forget Kincasslagh Community Weekend in July where you may run into its most famous son, Daniel O’Donnell.

Not far from Dungloe you will find a host of fine pubs and restaurants including the renowned Danny Minnie’s in Annagry and Leo’s Tavern, home of Clannad, in Crolly.
