It has been thoroughly renovated to an exceptional standard for todays discerning holiday maker. The Story of Prospect Cottage
PROSPECT COTTAGE·MONDAY, JUNE 15, 2020·
A truly unique home built in the 1800s in a breath-taking location has been lovingly restored in 2020 for the modern discerning holiday maker, by Brian and Claire. Prospect Cottage is steeped in the history of tourism in Bundoran, an
d was formerly used as a B&B in the middle of the last century. The former owner Molly D lived a full life into her 102 year here in this beautiful albeit humble home. It has been transformed into a spacious 3-bedroom cottage with 2 modern bathrooms with power showers, (downstairs wet room wheelchair accessible), and 2 large reception/living areas. There is a spacious courtyard with access from the kitchen/living/dining patio doors, a wetsuit drying room, a quaint front porch, and a spacious back hallway, stairway and landing. The character of the old cottage was maintained, by recreating the old entrance doorways to allow maximum light into the once dark cottage. The addition of a wood burning stove into a Traditional Old Irish Cottage Hearth, is a feture of the open plan kitchen living dining area downstairs. The whole cottage has been tastefully decorated in calm light colours, giving a further illusion of space and tranquillity. The deep window resesses are great as window seats, inviting you to watch the world go by, or read a book in peace and calm. The Picture Window upstairs has opened up a view towards the ocean which is 50 metres away with Sliabh League in the horizon. The thoughtful design “flipped” the living area to upstairs, with a small Pod Kitchen to complement upstairs living, with the main fitted kitchen downstairs, giving function and form to family living.
