Local Interests


A must while heading to West Donegal is Glenveagh National Park with its magnificent gardens and castle open to the public. It gives one an idea of bygone royal life here.

The art gallery at Churchill which houses a very fine collection of Derek Hill - indeed it was his home - is also open to view. From time to time the art gallery houses other collections by Irish and local artists.
