The Neighborhood:

3 Gilroy’s is ideally located in the vibrant seaside village of Downings on Donegal’s beautiful Rosguill Peninsula. This area is well known for its welcoming atmosphere, stunning coastal scenery, and strong connection to the Wild Atlantic Way. Just minutes away, you’ll find Downings Beach (Trá na Rossan), a wide stretch of golden sand perfect for relaxing walks, swimming, and family outings. The village itself offers a great mix of traditional pubs, cafés, and restaurants, many serving fresh local seafood, along with small shops for everyday essentials. The nearby harbour adds to the charm, while Rosapenna Golf Resort—one of Ireland’s most prestigious golf destinations—is only a short drive away. With scenic drives, rugged coastline, and peaceful surroundings, Downings is an excellent base for exploring the best of North Donegal.



Getting Around:

A car is the most convenient way to explore Downings and the surrounding Rosguill Peninsula, as public transport options are limited. With your own vehicle, you can easily visit nearby villages like Carrigart and Creeslough, discover hidden beaches, and enjoy the spectacular Atlantic Drive coastal route. Within the village, many amenities—including the beach, pubs, and restaurants—are within walking distance or a short drive. Taxis are available locally but should be booked in advance, especially outside of peak season. For wider travel, Letterkenny is approximately a 30–35 minute drive and offers larger shops and transport connections, while Donegal Airport is about an hour away.
