Large Cottages in Donegal

Make your trip extra special with big cottages in Donegal

County Donegal in Ireland is a spellbinding place. Miles of rugged Atlantic coastline feature dramatic cliffs with crashing waves.

Take a scenic road trip along cliff-top roads that weave through characterful towns and villages or ride a horse along a windswept beach where the Atlantic Ocean crashes on the shore.

Wherever you find yourself in this beautiful county, you're sure to enjoy the enchanting Irish atmosphere. If you're planning on visiting this lovely Irish county for a group holiday, a special occasion with friends, or just a big family get-together, we'll find you the perfect large holiday homes in Donegal to make your trip complete.

From rustic cottages to elegant modern homes, browse our range of large houses to rent in Donegal and start planning your trip.

Why choose Donegal for your group trip?

With dramatic mountain peaks and rugged sea cliffs, Donegal is a beautiful county begging to be explored.

With over a thousand kilometres of cliffs, sandy beaches, and inlets to discover, you'll also find stunning mountain valleys and highlands.

The mighty Slieve League Cliffs is one of the best things to do when visiting. The majestic cliffs reach a height of almost 2,000 feet (that's twice the height of the Eiffel Tower) and the views from the top are simply out of this world. If you want to see the cliffs in all their glory, you can take a boat trip for a scenic view from the sea.

Tory Island is a magical place brimming with ancient legends and myths. The remote location of this mysterious island has allowed the locals to preserve old Gaelic customs and charm. The scenery is breathtaking, and the sparkling turquoise sea has to be seen to be believed.

If you want to explore some of Donegal's best beaches, then the Atlantic Drive is a must. It's a fairly short trip and you'll be treated to your choice of golden, sandy beaches. One of the best is Portsalon Beach, which features different shades of blue water along the coast.

Another idyllic coastal spot to visit is the dreamy Kinnagoe Bay. Located near the town of Inishowen, the bay is famous for its picturesque blue waters, beautiful surrounding landscape, and the sinking of the Armada ship La Trinidad Valencera in 1588.

Donegal Castle is a great attraction for history lovers. Guarding a bend of the River Eske, this 15th-century castle was built by the O'Donnells in 1474 and is packed with fascinating history and local legends. Join a guided tour and discover everything this formidable castle has to offer. Another castle worth a visit is Doe Castle located deep in Sheephaven Bay. It's not as large as Donegal Castle but it's a beautiful and haunting structure that also offers guided tours.

You won't want to miss a trip to the impressive Glenveagh National Park, which is a true gem and home to lots of brilliant walking trails. It also has a castle nestled in the grounds, so pack a picnic and your walking shoes and head out on an adventure.

If you're going on holiday with the kids, then make sure you visit the seaside resort of Bundoran. It's packed with everything you'd want from a seaside town including a brilliant beach, a funfair, lots of amusements, and plenty of places to eat.

This just scratches the surface of the amazing things to see and do in Donegal. So start planning your trip and enjoy your Irish adventure!
