SELF-CATERING COTTAGES, ARDARA CO. DONEGAL
Grandad's Atlantic Cottage is part of a small Farm or Croft, situated on Loughros Point, a peninsula that stretches out to the Atlantic Ocean.
Along with superb views of the Atlantic, mountains and crimson sunsets, the cottage has a traditional homely atmosphere but with all modern facilities. Both the living/dining room and sitting room have open fires, in addition to oil-fired central heating. The vinedraped sunporch, and all rooms afford wonderful views of surf break below the cottage and across the Owenea Estuary (good for salmon and sea trout fishing) to one of the many fabulous beaches in the area. The cottage has private parking with enclosed gardens front and rear.
Bicycles can be hired from the Heritage Town of Ardara 5 km away, and mapped walks start from the cottage. A popular hike is past the Maghera Caves, up the side of Eseranka Waterfall and around by Slievetooey Mountain. Other walks take in the many archeological sites in the area. A short walk below the cottage leads to a lovely beach with rock pools and golden sands, ideal for an early morning walk or dip in the sea.
Ardara has many friendly pubs like the Corner House and Nancy's, which are famous for live Irish music and song, whilst Woodhill House and the Nesbit Arms are renowned for good food. Charley's Café serves super family meals including a delicious seafood chowder and unbeatable fresh salad.
Narin & Portnoo Golf Club is situated in the beautiful seaside resort of Portnoo, about 9 miles away. It is considered one of the finest natural links courses in Ireland. It is certainly one of the most scenic.
At Grandad's Atlantic Cottage we pride ourselves in offering you a relaxing break away from the stresses of everyday life but at the same time affording as much interest and activity as our guests desire.
