There’s something special about giving a gift that has a story behind it. Something that reminds you of a place you’ve visited, a coastline you love, or a little corner of Donegal that will always feel like home.
As the #BuyDonegal2026 campaign gets underway, we’re delighted to join businesses across the county in celebrating everything that makes shopping local so special.
Here at Fanad Lighthouse, we’re inviting you to discover our online gift shop, find a thoughtful Christmas present, or perhaps plan a winter escape to one of our historic lighthouse keepers’ cottages.
And this year, we’ve a little something extra for those supporting us during the campaign.
Buy a €100 Gift Voucher and Get a €10 Voucher for Yourself.
As part of #BuyDonegal2026, we’re offering a little thank-you to our customers.
Buy someone a €100 Fanad Lighthouse gift voucher, and we’ll give you a €10 voucher for yourself.
It’s a lovely way to treat someone special while getting a little something back.
Perhaps you know someone who loves Donegal, has fond memories of Fanad Head, or would enjoy discovering the lighthouse for the first time. A Fanad Lighthouse gift voucher is a thoughtful way to give them something to look forward to.
And with an extra €10 voucher coming your way, there’s a little treat for you too.
Give €100. Get €10. Share a little of Fanad this Christmas.

Give the Gift of an Experience
Sometimes the most memorable gifts aren’t things at all. They’re the places we visit, the stories we hear and the experiences we share.
A visit to Fanad Lighthouse is about much more than admiring one of Ireland’s most photographed landmarks.
Our guided lighthouse tours bring visitors through the fascinating history of Fanad Head, its lighthouse keepers and the maritime heritage of this beautiful coastline.
Alongside the guided tour, visitors can discover our immersive VR experience, Éist audio experience, An Lampa cinematic experience and Amharc marine watch station.
And of course, there’s always the chance to enjoy something delicious in our café, browse the gift shop and take in those spectacular views across Lough Swilly and the Atlantic.
It’s a wonderful experience to share with family or friends, whether they’re discovering Fanad for the first time or returning to a place they already love.
A Winter Escape to Remember
While Fanad Head is a popular destination throughout the summer, there’s something particularly special about visiting during the quieter winter months.
The dramatic Atlantic skies, the changing colours of the coastline, the sound of the waves and the peaceful surroundings all make winter at Fanad a completely different experience.
Our three beautifully restored lighthouse keepers’ cottages offer the chance to stay in a truly unique location, right beside one of Ireland’s most iconic lighthouses.
Imagine waking up to the sound of the sea, enjoying a leisurely breakfast overlooking the coastline, or returning to your cosy cottage after a day exploring the Wild Atlantic Way.
Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend, a peaceful few days away or a chance to reconnect with Donegal, a winter stay at Fanad Lighthouse is something a little out of the ordinary.
We still have selected dates available throughout the winter, and we’d love to welcome you.
