About this cottage rental
🌟 Welcome 🌟
This self-catering 1860s cottage sits in the very centre of Muff Village, where warm hospitality and a true Irish welcome are part of everyday life. Step outside the door and you’ll find everything you need within moments - the award-winning Muff Liquor Company, Tank & Skinny’s café, The Treehouse Restaurant & Ardmore Bar, The Squealing Pig pub, and a selection of local shops and takeaways. Whether you’re planning a cosy romantic escape or a fun-filled family break, this is the perfect base.
Situated at the gateway to Inishowen, the Wee House places you at the starting point of both the Wild Atlantic Way and the Causeway Coastal Route. Explore blue flag beaches, rugged walking trails, mountain viewpoints, golf courses, fishing spots, biking routes, Wild Ireland, and the historic walled city of Derry - all just a short drive away.
