This is the ideal base for your family holiday in South West Donegal providing a gateway to; stunning, safe beaches, local fishing, boat tours, hand-gliding, diving and walking, and golf locally.
Located in the Gaeltach (Irish Speaking) area of South West Donegal,the village of Carrick sits at the foot of Slieve League.
The Slieve League cliffs are said to be the highest and one of the finest marine cliffs in Europe with a staggering 2000 feet drop straight down into the wild, Atlantic waves below.
Sliabh Liag, or Grey Mountain, is better known by its anglicized name of Slieve League. The cliffs on its seaward side are called 'Bunglas', and are reputed to be the highest sea-cliffs in Europe reaching anywhere from 300-600m (roughly 1000-2000 feet) from sea-level. This creates a breathtaking view.
The river Glen, renowned for Salmon and Trout flows through here and into the sea at Teelin bay.
Nearby to the east is Ireland's premier fishing port of Killybegs and to the west the village of Glencolmcille.
Colm Cille and his followers lived in the valley and the ruins of several of their churches can still be seen there. |
