Actress Carrie Crowley’s favourite place is a Donegal hideaway

Actress Carrie Crowley has revealed her favourite place is a well-known Donegal hideaway which she returns to every summer.

Crowley’s mother grew up in The Rosses and she was a regular visiter there as a child.

But it’s in Glencolmcille where Crowley’s heart rests.

She revealed “My mum grew up in The Rosses, and we would spend weeks every summer cycling between the townland of Meenabanad and Cruit Island.

“But in 1994 I discovered Glencolumcille in southwest Donegal, and that has without doubt become my absolute favourite place.

“I initially landed there to attend Oideas Gael, an Irish college for adults. I adored it form the get-go, and 32 years later, I still head up every summer.

“It’s a stunning place with glorious beaches and a lot of really sound heads to hang out with as Gaeilge. What’s not to love?”

Carrie Crowley’s documentary, Saile, will feature on TG4, on Wednesday, April 29th, at 9.30pm.
