Bunbeg, a wee harbour in Donegal


While on our hols in Donegal we happened upon the small harbour of Bunbeg, and enjoyed a bite of lunch in the small cafe/bar/B&B that is situated at the entrance of the harbour, with views over the water. It used to be a mill once in its lifetime.

The cream building is the old mill

 Looking at the photo above you would never think there is a big harbour behind you, a great site for it. Cannot imagine the waters ever getting too stormy here.

Our day trip through Donegal

The most annoying thing about a 'staycation' in Ireland is the unpredictable weather, as we all know only too well over the past few (so called) summers.

BUT as we all know too, no matter what type of weather there is we will always manage to find a gem of a view or a waterfall or something that takes our breath away. And when theres been alot of rain theres loads of fast flowing water!

Myself and herself love the countryside, especially anything to do with water (maybe thats why we ended up living in Cavan, a lake for every day of the year!) and it felt like we stopped to have a look at every river/stream and lake we came across on our way from Letterkenny to Glenveagh National Park.

I make no apologies for the following photos, the day was dull and overcast but I took loads....heres a few hehe
