Corcreggan Mill

Dunfanaghy, County Donegal, Ulster

An old mill and its stream five minutes from Dunfanaghy, with pitches, bell tents, railway carriages and a converted trawler.

Why we love it

Corcreggan has been quietly collecting recommendations from Lonely Planet and the Rough Guides for years, and it is easy to see why: an old country mill with a stream running through it, an organic garden, lake and sea views, and a run of sleeping options that gets steadily stranger the further you walk. Pitches and motorhome bays, then bell tents, then two railway carriages, then a converted fishing trawler.

Tent pitches start at €17.50. It is the cheapest thing on this list by a distance and one of the most characterful, which is not a combination that comes up often.

Best for: anyone touring the north Donegal coast who wants somewhere to stay put for three nights
