Neighbourhood
Overview:
Donegal is seen by many as the starting point on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way coastline. https://www.wildatlanticway.com/home - Sea Vista is located directly on this route.
Rathmullan (Irish: Ráth Maoláin, meaning "Maoláin's ringfort") is a small seaside village on the Fanad Peninsula in County Donegal, Ireland. It is situated on the western shore of Lough Swilly, 11 km (7 miles) north-east of Ramelton and 12 km (7.5 miles) east of Milford. Rathmullan serves as an important historical village as it was the scene of the Flight of the Earls in 1607, a major turning point in Irish history.
Situated midway on the western shore of Lough Swilly, Rathmullan is a good base for exploring this beautiful area. There are pleasant walks and drives in the area including Kinnegar and Rathmullan Woods. There are a also number of beautiful and idyllic beaches within easy reach of the cottages where you and your family can while away a sunny afternoon. There is excellent fishing for wild brown trout and salmon in the area, and, for the more adventurous, deep sea fishing is available. The arrival of the Summer ferry has also made the hidden treasures of Northern Donegal easily accessible from Rathmullan.

Places of Interest
Visit the ruins of the Carmelite Friary in Rathmullan (just a 200m walk from Sea Vista) which was built by Eoghan Rua MacSweeney in 1516. The Friary was sacked by the English garrison from Sligo in 1595. In 1607, Rathmullan was also said to have seen the last of the Gaelic Order, most notably the Clan Ó Néill and the Clan Ó Domhnaill, during the Flight of the Earls to the Continent. This 'flight' took place from Portnamurray on the southern edge of the town. In 1617 the Friary was occupied by the Protestant Bishop of Raphoe, The Rt. Rev. Dr. Andrew Knox. A subsequent Bishop of Raphoe turned it into a fortified house in anticipation of a possible French invasion during the Napoleonic Wars. This battery still stands and today serves as a heritage centre located near the pier in the village.
