Inishowen 100

Reviewed By M-P7

One of the most spectacular drives I have ever experienced. The scenery cannot be caught on camera it has to be experienced. We were lucky that the weather was amazing so we saw this magnificent county at its best. It's a gem that needs to be advertised more. I will certainly be back.

Kinnagoe Bay

Reviewed By C_and_H_11 - Dublin, Ireland

Kinnagoe Beach is truly a little gem & is different from many of the beaches in Donegal in that it's smaller & more sheltered & surrounded by tree lined cliffs. It has very unusual sea worn rock formations, which are well worth exploring. The sand is golden which is typical of the fabulous beaches of Co Donegal. It's about halfway between Greencastle & Ballymagaraghy. Access is limited as the road is extremely steep close to the beach, so campervans beware!!

This was a brilliant experience. We went as a group of 7. Another family grouped in with us. All the children got to take an Alpaca by its lead and walk up through the beautiful Donegal hills. The views were amazing. We stopped at a few points so pictures could be taken. Really really recommend this to everyone. John was a real gentleman and his two boys, Aidan & Seán were just lovely. So friendly and helpful. Thanks so much for a lovely afternoon :) Bronach ☺️

Shroove Lighthouse

Reviewed By Itinerant2014 - Glasgow, United Kingdom

This is a lovely spot overlooking Lough Foyle, the end of the road really as you can go no further. It's very quiet and peaceful. A reviewer said disapprovingly it was Stroove Lighthouse, not Shroove Lighthouse. It is neither. It is Inishowen Lighthouse.
