Town: The picturesque town of Glenties meaning ‘The Glens’ is located in the heart of the Donegal Highlands, at the meeting point of the two glens of the Owenea and Stranaglough rivers on the northwest edge of the Bluestack Mountains. The two rivers, particularly the Owenea are well known for their salmon fishing. Although a small town, Glenties offers seven pubs, four general and grocery shops and three takeaways in its busy main street. Glenties is a five times winner of Ireland’s tidiest town and has won the Entente Florale Europe Competition. The area offers visitors many opportunities to hill-walk in the Bluestack Mountains and enjoy the scenery of the Bluestack Way, as well as the chance to explore the many other glens, mountains, dozens of lakes, and the rugged Atlantic coast with its sweeping bays and wide clean beaches. Other attractions include several archaeological remains, such as an ancient ring fort on an island in nearby Lough Doon, tremendous views everywhere you look, and the Finntown narrow gauge scenic railway, which runs alongside the two mile long Lough Finn. There are frequent local festivals and events in Glenties, and nearby towns, such as an annual Harvest Fair, plus live music can be enjoyed in pubs most nights, and golfers will appreciate the challenging links course at nearby Portnoo. The Glenties area is perfect for hill-walkers, hikers, bikers and tourists who wish to explore this varied, wild and rugged part of North West Ireland. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Internet access ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Patio ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - In the mountains ### Things to do - Golfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 969 square feet ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106920000/106910400/106910327/b101dfb7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Unique beachfront cottage at Fintra Bay Donegal Killybegs - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly - Parking available 8.0 Very good 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-28&endDate=2025-10-29&selected=106910327&PinnedHotelID=106910327&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111430000/111424400/111424328/w1150h914x1y4-889b1cb5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Atlantic Coast Ballyganny - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 5.0 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-28&endDate=2025-10-29&selected=111424328&PinnedHotelID=111424328&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89250000/89245500/89245415/5ee5e61f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Hidden Lodge, Ardara, Donegal.
