find holiday homes in Bunbeg

Bunbeg is a small
fishing village with a beautiful little harbour, set in the heart of
the Gweedore Gaeltacht, where Irish is the spoken language. The
locale is well served with a variety of shops, fine restaurants,
B&Bs and Hotels. A warm and friendly atmosphere is to be found in
the local pubs; many of which have regular traditional music
sessions. Gaoth Dobhair or Gweedore is perhaps the most unusual
semi-urban entity in Ireland. Although home to a large population,
it has little of the streetscapes and other characteristics
associated with towns, except that is for its southern end at An Bun
Beag or Bunbeg. The little harbour of Bunbeg is in a picturesque and
well sheltered spot here where the Clady River enters the sea, and
unlike the rest of the area, which displays a fairly idiosyncratic
approach to the way in which houses and other buildings are designed
and located, Bunbeg has a more considered look. |
