Lurgyvale Thatched Cottages

Lurgyvale Thatched Cottage is a 150 year old thatched cottage with an open hearth and a flagged floor. The buildings and artefacts provide a sense of the rustic, country lifestyle in old County Donegal. Scones and tea are served daily in an old kitchen. Visitors can tour the house and see the charming bedrooms with their lace curtains and sloping ceilings. There is a landscaped picnic and children's play area. You can buy local crafts in the thatched craft shop and visit a museum of domestic and farm appliances. Visitors can also take a walk behind the cottage with paths leading through rhododendron thickets, down to the wooded banks of the Lurgy river. Demonstrations of traditional crafts, such as spinning, flailing, churning and straw rope making are held, please ring for times.
