Mamore Cottages
Location
Step back in time and get away from it all in an original Irish Cottage:
Each of the Mamore Cottages has been carefully restored and is fully heated, with all mod cons. Features such as a thatched bog oak roof, open turf fire, flagged stone floor and old pine furniture create a timeless atmosphere.
There are a choice of five beautiful, original 'Donegal style' thatched cottages. Originally built 150 years ago: - They are all similar in style and appearance, and your choice will be determined by the size of your family or group. Each cottage is named after the last owner/tenant who occupied it.
A perfect location for Hill walkers; The 'Seven Peakes Walk' in the Urris Hills is said to be one of the finest walks in Ireland.
Visit the Glenevin Waterfall near Clonmany, a short walk from the road, along a well sign posted, safe path with picnic areas and foot bridges criss-crossing the babbling stream along the way.

Accommodation
All the bedrooms have large double beds, and they are either solid wood or iron-railed poster beds. Some cottages also have a unique 'Settle Bed' next to the fireplace. This type of bed was a common feature in the early homes, and being close to the fireplace, it was warm and cosy. It had a curtain for privacy, and could usually accommodate 2 or 3 persons.
All the cottages have a common living room area, 'the heart of the home', which includes the kitchen, dining table, with either benches or chairs, dresser, a fireplace, and comfortable 'lounge' chairs and couches. The kitchens all have modern appliances (so cooking does not require a fire to be lit.).
