Escape the everyday with a break on the breathtaking Loughros Peninsula, a narrow strip of land reaching out towards the North Atlantic with stunning views of waterfalls, caves and white sands. A patchwork of pastures and pretty white-painted properties line the quiet lanes here, leading in one direction to the dramatic point that overlooks Loughros Beg Bay and in the other to Ardara, a designated Heritage Town with welcoming inns, tasty eateries and a busy calendar of festivals throughout the year. Sitting on the Owentocker River, Ardara is also a well-known centre for the manufacture of Donegal Tweed. To the south, Killybegs (14.5 miles) is Ireland’s largest fishing port and the embarkation point for boat trips along the Donegal coastline.

Don’t miss the wealth of natural beauty on your doorstep: at Maghera Beach opposite the Loughros Peninsula (a drive of less than 10 miles) low tide reveals some incredible caves, while the nearby Assaranca Waterfall is especially impressive after heavy rain.
