About Ballyshannon

Ballyshannon sits where the River Erne meets the Atlantic, serving as a handy base for exploring Donegal's coast along the Wild Atlantic Way. The town connects easily via the N15, with Dublin 201km away and Sligo just 43km south. It's only 7km from Bundoran's beaches and makes a grand starting point for day trips up the Donegal coast. The historic stone bridge spanning the Erne is one of Ireland's finest Georgian examples, and with 10 EV charging points, it's well set up for modern travellers touring the region.
