Spontaner Kurzurlaub in Donegal, Irland? Wir haben im Juni noch Platz für bis zu sechs Leute

Posted on by

Wir haben im Juni noch Platz für bis zu sechs Personen in unserem Ferienhaus in der Grafschaft Donegal. Die Gegend ist berühmt für ihre Naturlandschaften, irre Strände, Wellenreiter und natürlich für ihre Lebensart: Klasse Küche, freundliche Menschen, viel Musik. Donegal ist die einsamste, ursprünglichste Grafschaft Irlands: Wir liegen am südlichen, “städtischen” Rand davon (unser Städtchen hat 2200 Einwohner).

Unser Navone Mews ist ein rustikales, abgelegenes Stadthaus in Ballyshannon, ziemlich geräumig (3 Schlafzimmer, Platz für bis zu sechs Personen), in der Nähe aller Pubs und Geschäfte und ein großartiger Ausgangspunkt für Touren durch Donegal, Fermanagh und Nord-Sligo.

Hier sind die verfügbaren Zeiten:

2.-12.6.2025
16.-19.62025
24.28.6.2025

Der Mindestaufenthalt beträgt drei Übernachtungen. Alle Details und Buchungsmöglichkeiten hier:

Wie man hinkommt: Per Flieger bis Dublin, und von dort mit dem Mietwagen oder mit Bus Eireann Linie 30 (25 Euro pro Weg). Beides dauert ca. 3 Stunden. Von Ballyshannon aus lässt sich der gesamte nordwestliche Teil Irlands von der Coast of Antrim bis Westport im Rahmen von Tagestouren erkunden. Wir geben gern Tipps für schöne Touren.

Beach-Live: Summer in May

Posted on by

Tullan Strand, second week in May 25. Copyright: pat

We’ve spent most of the autumn and winter in Ballyshannon, and it was a lovely time: unusually dry and mild, lots of good weather. But all that did not prepare us for this spring, which probably will go down in history. April started off sunny and dry and May really topped it: an unseen spell of good weather with temperatures between 20 and 27 degrees turned our lovely beaches into a kind of Celtic Costa Brava. Hard times for cloud-lovers.

“It’s unbelievable”, was something I heard more than once, “I can’t believe this is Ireland.”

But it is! Probably a New Ireland, where sunny spells become more extended? Who knows?

New Year

Posted on by

The wind blew us down to Donegal town. Still festive looking, Christmas lights still up. After dinner at the Harbour (always nice food!) we walked it over to McCaffertys Bar, known for the craic and the music and biggest venue in town. That night it wasn’t big enough though, the queues stretched endless and it was freezing cold. Landed in the Reel Inn instead, handmade music all night, with a set including guitar, piano and spoons. What shall I say? The craic was ninety.

Allingham Arts Festival

Posted on by

The Allingham Arts Festival is one of meanwhile five notable festivals in Ballyshannon in the course of the year. And because the poet William Allingham, beside Rory Gallagher Ballyshannons most famous son, was born 200 years ago this year, the organizers put together an impressive program with more than 60 events – with drama, film, literature, music and witty entertainment. It starts today, check it out!
