Donegal Cottages by the Beach

Book Self-Catering Donegal Holiday Cottages by the Sea

County Donegal lies in the North of Ireland, to the West of Northern Ireland and boasts three-hundred-kilometres of spectacular, wild coastline. It is considered to be Ireland’s richest and most varied shoreline with some of the UK’s highest cliffs, the most dramatic headlands and picturesque peninsulas, especially the peninsulas of Rosguill and Inishowen. Donegal definitely is a wild and contrasting land but the winning combinations of its vast gold dune beaches and Atlantic waves that thrash and cleanse its shores is intoxicating, despite the schizophrenic weather.

Inland it is all romance with mountain peaks, lush valleys and poetic lakes and yet Donegal seems to be undiscovered with a fraction of the tourists that it deserves. The beauty of this is that it is so utterly authentic and un-spoilt and proud to be so, with Irish still being widely spoken. The County Donegal cottages listed here are located on or near the beachfront with some holiday homes also pet friendly.
