Donegal Town Stopover - Places to Visit in Donegal, Ireland
Donegal Town, Ireland - Through the digging that we have been doing throughout Ireland and Northern Ireland to bring those historical famous places as well as those hidden gems which not all people know about, we have come to Donegal Town in Ireland and the stopover we have made.
Donegal town is a town in county Donegal in Ulster, Ireland, and which is found at the mouth of the River Eske and Donegal Bay and overshadowed by the Blue Stack Mountains. The center of this small town is called the Diamond and it is the place for music, poetic, and cultural gatherings in the area.
This was a quick visit to Donegal town - we didn't get deeper into the place to know what could be visited inside and what are the places one could stay at - but we got the chance to reach the Donegal Friary. The Donegal Friary is located on the outskirts of the town where the River Eske joins the Donegal Bay. This friary which was damaged during the war that took place after was considered one of the most influential Franciscan houses in Ireland but which is now nothing but the fragments of the church and the cloister arcade. Visiting this friary is considered beneficial because it will reveal a lot about the history of the place.
We reached Donegal town, got the chance to get inside the friary, walked through the ruins, and enjoyed the scene that combines the old ruins, the water, as well as the birds in one thing; it was really a different experience and a quick visit to a historical place that dates back to the seventeenth century which those visiting Donegal should do.
The Donegal friary is now considered some ruins and remains scattered around the area and these ruins are actually divided into rooms. There is the nave, the tower, the chancel, the aisle, the transept, the chapel, the cloister Garth, the cloister walk, the sacristy, the east range, the north range, the west range, and the Red Hugh O'Donnell.
In addition to visiting the Donegal friary, there are other things one could do in Donegal Town ( and which are beneficial for those who will be staying there for a couple of days to know more about. Those willing to make a tour in Donegal should visit Donegal Castle - which has been believed that there is a tunnel found linking between it and the friary - which is located in the centre of Donegal town. Walking the Blue Stack Way which is a 47 km long from Donegal town to Ardara. There is also the Donegal Railway Heritage Center which will provide the tourists with information about how it used to be like to travel on the narrow gauge railways of county Donegal.
Never visit a place by just looking on those historical monuments and ruins, you should also give yourself the chance to visit those new places which might be worth it as well as be part of the activities that might be taking place in the town or city you are visiting; these things usually make the trip more unforgettable and filled with more fun.
So in addition to those things we have suggested about visiting Donegal town in Ireland, there are also some things which tourists should never forget about doing, such as getting on the Donegal Bay Waterbus which offers daily 75 to 80 minutes tours of Donegal Bay with its many different islands and wildlife. There is also the walking tour which one could bring a guided tour to walk through the hills and mountains of Donegal or the one hour walking tour that takes place in the historical part of Donegal city.
There are always different things one could do in every single city or town he/she is visiting even if the place is not much historical - which should never be the case because why would you be there in the first place? - all what the person will need to do is search, ask those who might have been in the city or town before, and go exploring themselves to come out with the best outcomes at the end.
There are different things to do and different places to visit in Ireland and that is the main reason behind helping you out with those places which we have been to and enjoyed our times - for the adults as well as the kids.
We have done a quick visit to Donegal and managed to come across the Donegal friary only but we will never deny the excitement we had while visiting a place that dates back to the seventeenth century.
There are different things to see in Ireland, such as the Trinity College Dublin which was found in 1592 ( you could also take a tour around Dublin city by buying a ticket to the hop-on hop-off bus tour ( as well as other places which you might be more creative to find, settle on, and eventually visit :-)

Clones Town, County Monaghan, Ireland - Ireland Attractions
Clones Town County, Monaghan, Ireland - Doesn't it feel good to be back home? It can be amazing to bring back the memories from our childhood - sure we remember things every now and again, but you cannot beat actually walking the streets where you grew up for memories ( good and bad! to come flooding back ). Hence off to Clones, County Monaghan, Ireland, the town where I grew up.
For the few who do not know - Clones is a small town in western County Monaghan, Ireland. The Clones area was part of the Border Region which was earmarked for economic development by the Irish Government due to the current below average economic growth in the area. County Monaghan is on the border with County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland which brings its own advantages and challenges.
Walking through the town and seeing the old places which are still standing there, just about! :-)
During our walk of the town we came across a picture from 1843 for the Market House and it was amazing to see the buildings from the photo are still standing around the Diamond. Amazing.
On the Diamond we have the imposing buildings such as Ulster Bank - which sadly closed in 2016....to all the pubs, post office, credit union and more.
Checking out the tourist map, trying to decide in which direction we should go, we finally managed to go down to the Wee Abbey, just off the Diamond - a great stop for history buffs. The most imposing feature on the Diamond is the Celtic High Cross. Down the road towards Cavan, to the right - is the path to the Motte and Bailey Fort, a piece of ground showing where an old fort used to stand with an amazing view across the local area. Plenty of history here!!
Towards the bottom of Fermanagh Street is the Butter Yard and the relatively new statue of the children playing leapfrog. Pretty Nice!
Close to the Round Tower is the Ionad Cassandra Hand Centre where they used to make lace and was built in 1847, coming again to the Wee Abbey. Across the road from the Lace centre is the Round Tower and graveyard.
There are other towns which one could visit around the North of Ireland, such as Letterkenny in county Donegal ( there is also Bushmills Town which is found on the north coast of Ireland ( and you could visit Newcastle Co. Down which is a lovely place to go to if you like beaches! :-) (
Would love if you shared this video on your social media :-) Thank you!!
