The cottage has been built in a modern and yet traditional style with oak and tile floors, a large stone fireplace (with a wood burning stove), a modern kitchen and is tastefully furnished and decorated throughout in keeping with the traditional and modern blended style.
It is located close to Dunfanaghy golf clubhouse and it is a 5 minute walk to the beach and also to the village centre and amenities. The area is one of the most beautiful in Ireland and the location enables easy access to Horn Head, some of the finest walks and beaches around and the spectacular indented Donegal coastline. The local landscape changes in response to seasons and daily weather. In the right light at the right time the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
