Well there not much else in the area Brendy, theres 4 hotels in Ballyliffin itself but no bars as such i dont think. If you looking for any other sort of entertainment its going to mean taxi rides.

Theres a couple of bars in Clonmany just a couple of miles away and a few bars in Carndonagh about 10 mins away but for anything a wee bit more exciting you gonna have to come into Derry which is about half hour away.

 

[brendy]

Cheers Steve, I got the pm, I dunno about going so far into the city. What about sky sports and a bar full of beer? Let the public decide?
I dont really know Ballyliffin well, been past it once to Cardonagh working a couple of years ago and that is it.

 

[smange]

Its probably best idea to get a seat in hotel bar and stay there til you fall off it

Also be prepared for prices youve never seen the like of, they really know how to charge in these Donegal hotels

 

[Dodger]

Need something with at least a bit of a heartbeat going on surely? Not fancying the idea of a hotel bar,we need real ale houses....pubs!

 

[stevek1969]

I'll be in the Anchor in Portsewart or The Harbour Bar in Portrush getting hammered on the Saturday night and it will be full of talent

 

[brendy]

Carndonagh might fit the bill then, couple of pubs there from memory?

The prices might not be soo bad seen as there is plenty of choice in Ballyliffin From memory the club house is not too bad for beer and the grub is pretty reasonable too, I, however, am more than prepared to go with the flow

Wiki makes Buncrana sound tempting.....is it too far?Is there cars/taxi's in that part of the world yet?

It is a fair trek coming back with a skinful of ale and busting for a pi$h

 

[smange]

Buncrana is about 15-20 mins in taxi, Clonmany(less than 5 mins away)has a couple of bars which may have a band on, Carndonagh has few bars and maybe(i will find out) some sort of disco/club but if you looking for a bit more lively its either Buncrana or coming into Derry

Inishowen is not exactly the nightlife capital of Ireland, thats why men are men and sheep are scared, isnt that right Chris

Brendy, is there a cut off point as I might convince another couple of guys(3) to come but they are worse than women to make up their minds!!!!

 

[brendy]

Hey up, tell them that they have a week to commit. Payday being around the corner for most folks might sway them haha.

 

[Hendy]

Brendy only live 20min's away and be a shame to miss out.

So to confirm it's 42 quid per round and old links is on the Sunday?

Is there much hope of them dropping the golf (only) price with the high numbers now going?

Cheers
Hendy

 

[brendy]

Hey up Hendy, that price is already down from 80 yoyos.

 

[Hendy]

true stick me down for the sunday (old course) sure..
