Tucked away in a secluded setting, this quaint cottage bursting with character and charm provides the ultimate serene and cosy retreat for families and groups of friends keen to explore County Donegal’s superb coastline. This scenic spot on the east side of the Inishowen Peninsular, known as the hidden jewel of the north-west, offers a rugged and wild region of mountains, lakes and loughs, breathtaking scenery and handsome villages tapering towards Ireland’s most northerly point at Malin Head. Lying on the western banks of Lough Foyle, where the Bredagh River flows into the sea, discover the rich history of the local area at the picturesque Heritage Town of Moville 5 miles away, home to a small fishing harbour and a bustling annual regatta. Enclosed by a steeply sloping hillside, find pure serenity at the gloriously golden sheltered cove of Kinnagoe Bay 1.5 miles away.

Admire captivating views through the picture window in the hall before heading through to the light and bright open-plan kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-from-home. Boasting a contemporary cottage-style aesthetic and plenty of natural sunlight, this endlessly social space is a haven for creative minds, with plenty of space to whip up something delicious and enjoy dining with loved ones seated around the rustic dining table. Centred around a charming, exposed brick inglenook fireplace housing a wood burner, the spacious lounge is the perfect spot to enjoy the ultimate family film night on the TV. Featuring soothing hues that perfectly blend into the colours of your local surroundings, the en-suite double bedroom and twin bedroom offer an oasis of calm to retire to at the end of a busy day. A contemporary family bathroom completes this delightful getaway.

Make the most of your breathtaking views towards Kinnagoe Bay by dining alfresco on the patio; after sundown, stay up way past bedtime stargazing in the clear dark skies.
