The thatched cottages are exact replicas of that era and they are furnished and equipped as they would have been back then. See how people lived, worked, cooked and entertained themselves and experience the warm welcome that characterises the people of Donegal. -
Magheroarty Beach
Magheroarty Beach is a curved, sandy, uncommercialised and clean beach which is perfect for swimming and water sports. The nearby pier offers visitors the chance to take a ferry out to nearby Tory and Inishboffin islands. Are you curious to discover a real hidden gem of a beach? This is somewhat remote, which helps it to remain as pure and unspoilt as you'll find anywhere. -
