County Donegal’s second most populous town of Buncrana (pop. 6,971) is perched on the eastern shores of the glacial fjord of Lough Swilly and is the gateway to the wild and spectacular Inishowen peninsula. This historic town, nestled between mountains and sea on the Wild Atlantic Way boasts an excellent range of shops, restaurants, bars, cultural activities and annual festivals. With easy and regular bus connectivity, it is an ideal remote working location or commuter town to the employment hubs of Derry (26km) and Letterkenny (42km).
Buncrana is home to three primary and post primary schools including one through the medium of Irish.
There are few spots in Ireland more ideally situated to indulge in outdoor activities with some of Donegal’s most beautiful beaches, golf courses and coastal and hill walks right on your doorstep. The jewel in the crown is Lisfannon Blue Flag Beach with an impressive 5km of golden sand. A walk along the shoreline passes the ruins of the 14th century O’Doherty’s Keep Norman Castle, the impressive 18th century Buncrana Castle and the picturesque six arched bridge across the river Crana. The shoreline trail weaves a further 6km along Buncrana Bay, passing the small coves and beaches of Lady’s Bay, Porthaw, Straghill and Linsfort with spectacular views out across Lough Swilly, which is said to have inspired the composition of Amazing Grace.
Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy a game at Ireland’s oldest 9 hole links course Buncrana Golf Club or on the equally historic 18-hole North West Golf Links while lovers of the water are spoiled for choice with a vast range of water sports on the River Crana and in the sea that surrounds the peninsula on three sides. For bird watchers, the paradise that is Inch Island beckons and if you venture a little deeper into the truly sublime Inishowen peninsula.

Building Energy Rating (BERs) give information on how to make your home more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All properties bought, sold or rented require a BER. BERs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that a property could achieve. Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and energy costs could be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A’ to ‘G’. An ‘A’ rating is the most efficient, while ‘G’ is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is ‘D’. All properties are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
