About this property
Tara's House - Fabulous sea views on the Wild Atlantic Way. Discounts in August!
Tara's House is a contemporary, luxury holiday home with 4 bedrooms to sleep 8 people. It is set well back from the road protected by a large rock outcrop that ensures privacy. You can hear the waterfall at the top of the site from the garden. The house has spectacular sea views overlooking Lough Foyle, the Atlantic and the Antrim coast. There are large hardwood picture windows to make the most of the views from within, and a spacious patio to enjoy the views and sea air from the garden. The house is a 10-minute walk to a blue flag beach - Big White Bay. Tara's House is on the route of the Wild Atlantic Way and on path of the Inishowen Head walk, and it's a short walk away from Stroove lighthouse (next to the Blue Flag Beach). It is also on the route of the beautiful 'Inishowen 100' scenic drive. There is one very large open plan living area with windows/doors to 3 sides giving superb sea and countryside views, 4 bedrooms, 2 with en-suite shower room and a third bathroom. The house is fully equipped to a very high standard with underfloor heating throughout. The house is approx. 3 km from Greencastle village and about 8km from the seaside town of Moville where there are restaurants and cafes.
Activities in the area include sailing, shore walks, shopping, theatre and cinema in Derry or Letterkenny, summer festivals, sea angling, golfing (Greencastle, Ballyliffen and Redcastle), hill walking, scenic drives, Greencastle Maritime Museum, Guns of Dunree Military Museum, The Cairn Visitors Centre, Doagh Island Famine Village and Malin Head - Irelands most northerly point.
Visit us soon and explore the rugged unspoilt beauty of Inishowen, ' the undiscovered treasure of Ireland' for yourself.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Kate Wilkinson

We built Tara's House in 2008 - a real labour of love and we are very proud of the house and we love to share this very special place with our guests. It was designed by an architect family member and we all survived to tell the tale! We have replanted a rose that used to grow at the original cottage on the site as a memento to the history of the site.
Why they chose this property
The site has the most amazing sea views and as the locals say 'it's feels different up here in Stroove'. It's a much longer story than that - which we'll tell you if you come and stay!
What makes this property unique
Tara's House is unique in so many ways, not least it's contemporary design - a refreshing change from the usual dormer bungalows you see across Ireland. It is safe, private and best of all has completely wonderful sea views.
