Historic town on the Lennon

(& Gateway to Fanad Peninsula)

Ramelton was once the most important port in the region, with goods and passengers moving to and from all parts of the world.  This importance can be seen from the many impressive buildings in the town.

The river Lennon runs through the town and often boasts the first salmon of the year.

There is also an art gallery in town, displaying some of the best Irish painters.

In addition to being an ideal base to explore Fanad, Rosguill and the Derryveagh mountains, Ramelton is a charming and picturesque place to visit.

  There are several B&Bs for those wishing to stay over in the town, including Meadowell House (left), just a few minutes walk from the Mall:   This also serves as the base for cycling trips up the Fanad peninsula and inland.

Although just a short walk to the centre of town, Meadowell is just a short walk to the resevoir lake below, and serves as an ideal starting point for walks past a waterfall and into the woods.

The B&B boasts five star service, from world class chef Ben Blount at near to hostel prices.
