A few pictures from a helicopter, on a dull day !!!

 

 

St. Johns Point is one of Ireland’s longest peninsulas, at six miles long. It leads to a beautiful, safe, sandy beach and  “the point” lighthouse. Our house is situated half way down the point and it’s name is above the front door. On the point road you pass, the award winning restaurant and bar, Castle Murray House Hotel and a small thatched Weavers Cottage which is still in use today.

From Donegal Town, take the N56, by-pass Mountcharles, go through Dunkineely and take the next left for the point road, which is sign posted, follow this road for three miles and Teachin na Mara is on the left....

If you are to continue on the N56 towards Killybegs, you will pass through Bruckless, a tiny village, with a general store, petrol facilities and a catholic church. A further five minutes drive finds you in Killybegs, the largest fishing port in Ireland. Comprehensive information folder can be found at the house (details of restaurants, entertainment, maps, general information on the area and the tourist attractions)

Amenities near Teachin na Mara are:

Fishing, diving, swimming, walking, running, bird-watching, flower searching, dolphin and seal watching, angling, weaving, equestrian centre/open farm, scuba diving, sea safari and many more activities and hobbies can be done in this area.

*Especially with Castle Murray House Hotel, just a few minutes drive from us, who specialize in French cuisine, seafood and even have a lobster tank... A "special treat"*
