The Whins cottage

The vacation rental
This traditional Irish cottage was built in the 1940's by our grandfather. It is located on an elevated site in the very scenic Fanad Peninsula.
It has been skilfully restored to retain its original features whilst modern comforts have been subtly integrated. The living room has a large open hearth fire, the flagstone floor, Irish dresser and spinning wheel, high beamed ceiling will transport you to times past. Two bedrooms with crisp white linen.
Bed linen, towels and fuel for the open fire are supplied. |

The surrounding area
The Whins cottage is in a peaceful rural area surrounded by farmland and hills with grazing cows and sheep. The Fanad Peninsula is very scenic with hills, mountains, lakes, several beautiful sandy beaches and the rugged Atlantic coastline.
It is mainly a farming community and sparsely populated.
