About this property

Derrybeg 2.2 miles. Tucked away in Carrickmacgarvey near Derrybeg, County Donegal, is this fantastic three-bedroom cottage, The Cottage. Enjoying a superb location on the Wild Atlantic Way, and just moment’s away from the beach, The Cottage is a wonderful dwelling for a group or family of six seeking their next Irish escape. Off-road parking and a delightful front garden with outdoor seating greets you on arrival, a perfect spot for savouring your morning coffee with exceptional sea and countryside views. Be welcomed into the sitting room, where you can look forward to evening’s spent relaxing with your loved ones in front of the crackling woodburning stove, as your favourite show plays out on the Smart TV. Impress your loved ones with tasty dishes in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, ready to savour at the dining table over a bottle of wine. On warmer days, fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco out in the rear garden, where the little ones can enjoy the swings. Just off the kitchen, you will find a handy utility with washing machine and tumble dryer for your convenience. Completing the ground floor is a bathroom with beautiful freestanding bath and walk-in shower, and a well-presented king-size bedroom. On the first floor, you will find two further bedrooms, an additional king-size and a twin, both with plenty of storage. For your local amenities, head to Derrybeg where you will find the welcoming Teach Mhici, where you can sample the local ales, or treat your loved ones to a tasty meal at the Sean Og Bar & Restaurant. Within the village, you will find a well-stocked convenience store, the fascinating shipwreck of Bad Eddie, and the gorgeous Bungbeg Beach, where you can bathe, fish, or take to the waters on your paddleboard and kayak. Keen walkers and cyclists will not want to miss the opportunity to visit the nearby Glenveagh National Park, where you can hike through the wildlife rich deer forest, where you will also find a 19th-century castle, mountains and an outdoor learning centre. Further afield, you will find the bustling town of Letterkenny, where you will find the remarkable St. Eunan’s Cathedral, Tropical World, the excellent Letterkenny Golf Club and the Donegal County Museum. All this and more awaits at The Cottage.

Derrybeg, a charming seaside hamlet on County Donegal's scenic west coast, is a popular tourist destination. There are numerous pubs and restaurants in Derrybeg, which is located in one of Ireland's Gaeltacht regions. The area is known for its beautiful sandy beaches and extensive coastline. The stunning Glenveagh National Park is just a short drive away, and the towns of Letterkenny and Donegal are also within easy access.

  • Alan

    Perfect for exploring this area of County Donegal.

  • Aisling

    Lovely decor and spotlessly clean. Location is great with beaches and amenities in close proximity. Would definitely recommend!

  • Claire

    Beautifully decorated and very cosy with all that is needed. Indeed if I could lift the cottage up and bring it home I would, as the styling is very much to my taste. A short walk or drive down to a fabulous beach. And Teach Jack close by has amazing food. It was a week well spent and we will be back to Donegal soon to explore this fabulous part of the world. The only small negative is that the garden isn’t enclosed, so it may not be suitable for all dog owners.
