The property

The Garden Cottage and Carriage House is a distinctive retreat nestled near Lake Mullaghderg on the mainland coast of County Donegal.

Lovingly restored, this charming hideaway blends traditional Irish cottage character with contemporary comforts and artistic flair.

With an open fire, outdoor shower, bespoke kinetic sculpture, and a location just moments from the airport and two stunningly beautiful beachs, it’s a peaceful sanctuary for two couples, friends, or a small family seeking a luxurious escape by the sea.

For those seeking a truly elevated arrival, private transfers including airport pick-up and ferry bookings are available as an added service, a memorable way to begin your stay in this coastal haven.

Step inside to discover a space where every detail has been thoughtfully composed—an inviting blend of texture, light, and creativity that immediately sets the tone for a restful and inspiring stay.

The kitchen/diner is designed for relaxed cooking, with a gas hob and sleek black fixtures, tiled flooring and finishes that continue into the dedicated utility area, where a washing machine and tumble dryer are neatly tucked away.

As you prepare a meal, admire the furnishings and artwork around you, then gather at the dining table to eat and plan the day ahead.

In the sitting room, a brown leather Chesterfield-style sofa rests on warm wooden flooring, surrounded by green walls and a matching door.

A stylish overhead light casts a soft glow across the space, where artwork and instruments—a guitar and violin—adorn the walls, and a vibrant rug anchors the room.

Art supplies are tucked nearby, inviting you to capture the beauty of your surroundings.

Toss a log on the fire and listen to its gentle crackle as you unwind, whether with a book or simply the quiet of the evening.

A laptop is provided for work or streaming, though the setting may tempt you to disconnect and savour the stillness.

The shower room offers a refreshing retreat, with soft towels and curated toiletries to restore you after a day exploring the coast.

There are two bedrooms on offer to rejunivate.

One bedroom is enveloped in warm green walls, the other in rich, atmospheric hues, each styled with carefully chosen linens, original oil paintings, and thoughtful details.

Step outside to discover a lush garden, where Wisp, a bespoke sculpture by British artist Will Carr, stands among the greenery.

Outdoor furniture invites you to dine or relax alfresco, while a fire pit offers warmth beneath the stars, and a steaming hot outdoor shower is perfect for rinsing off after beachside adventures.

The adjacent Carriage House adds an extra layer of charm and privacy, featuring Irish antiques and sculpture that reflect the region’s heritage and artistic spirit.

Housekeeping is available upon request for stays of a week or more, ensuring your comfort throughout your visit.

Set your own rhythm with complimentary bicycles, perfect for tracing the quiet lanes, sea-kissed paths, and winding trails.

From your quaint haven at The Garden Cottage and Carriage House, set off on an exploration of the cultural fabric of Donegal by stepping into the Triona Donegal Tweed Centre, a testament to the county's rich textile legacy.

Golfing enthusiasts can brush up on their skills at Cruit Island Golf Course just around the corner for 9 holes of golf on the ocean, or for those looking for a challenging 18-hole course, the Narin & Portnoo Links, rewards with panoramic Atlantic vistas as well.

Equally enticing is a trip to the Fintown Railway, Donegal's only operational narrow gauge railway, for a unique journey through some of the most spellbinding scenery Ireland has to offer.

The Garden Cottage and Carriage House is a place to slow down, sketch, cook, and connect—with the surroundings, the space, and the stories it holds. Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of €250.
