Other major attractions well worth visiting include Glenveagh National Park and Castle, Mount Errigal, Tory Island, Glebe House and Gallery, Colmcille Heritage Centre, Fort Dunree Military Museum and Abbey Mill Wheels, Doe Castle, Fanad Lighthouse, Ards Forest Park. Donegal also has some interesting archaeological sites; around Ballyshannon, for example, you'll find ruined castles, religious sites and celtic raths.

 

Downings Area

Downings village in Co. Donegal is located on the Rosguill peninsula. Local attractions include; golfing, horse back riding, pitch and put, fishing and socialising - of course. The area is well known for it's scenic beauty with attractions such as The Atlantic Drive, An Meall Mor and Tra na Rossan. Such features ensure that Downings is a bustling village all the year round.

The Atlantic Drive is a short but very spectacular road around the rosguill Peninsula , which encapsulates the dramatic marriage of two natural elements-the ageless land of Donegal and the timeless courtship of the Atlantic , which has forged a glorious alliance of great beauty. As it is only about 12km around, you will best appreciate it if you walk or cycle. The walk can be comfortably accomplished in half a day. The views are spectacular, first across Sheephaven Bay , with its beautiful beach forming a golden link between two headlands. Further on is Melmore Head, which commands views across to Fanad Head. The road winds above Mulroy Bay with its many inlets, islands and peninsulas.

Meevagh Church Graveyard is signposted left where there is an old Latin cross and an old Latin cross and an ogham stone next to the ruined church. As you return to the road there is an attractive traditional pub on your right.

As you finish the Atlantic Drive you will be looking across to Rosapenna golf links,the hotel and Sheephaven bay beyond.

Guest Book

We have had a lovely time. Cottage very comfortable and luxurious and who could ever tire of the view. Can recommend food at the Singing Pub and the butchers in Carrigart is excellent. Glenveagh National park good for walks on a showery day. Dunlewy lakeside centre is good for children and I think we have walked, paddled or swam on almost every beach. Hall-Thomas Family, Northumberland, England
What a wonderful house, spectacular views, gorgeous beaches. The highlight watching the seals in the bays (in the evenings). The Smiths, Cheshire, England
MEGA! Even the weather couldn't spoil it. The boys (aged 5 & 3) have loved every minute, they have called the beach to the left- 'Their' Beach! Isolation was fab. People are great, friendly + helpful. House was outstanding. Welsh Family, Durham, England.
