WHY YOU SHOULD HOLIDAY IN DONEGAL!
Well, you probably already know that it's the most
beautiful part of Ireland! But if you are considering coming to
Ireland for a holiday then let us show you why you should come to County
Donegal.
Just look at how Kate and her family spend their holidays in Donegal
here or click on this
link to see a video and hear more about,
what Donegal has to offer and then start your holiday by coming to ride at
Rose Cottage Riding School!
You might like to note that in the video mention is made that Nick Faldo and
other golf professionals love some of the Golf courses in Donegal. If you
or your partner like golf then you should know that one of these very golf
courses is actually only ten minutes away from
Rose Cottage!! See information about

IS YOUR INTERNET
SPEED A PROBLEM?
Our
web site makes extensive use of photographs and a fast Internet connexion is
clearly desirable. If the speed of your Internet connexion is making some
of our pages rather too slow to view and you are unable to move to
a faster and substantially more expensive Internet link, then a cheap
Accelerated Software
solution from a company like
On speed (or others) might be able to help.
For only a modest annual payment of less than 40 Euros , such an approach can be used to improve speeds, sometimes by x5
or even up to x10 in some cases, and it can improve both
Dial-up and even current Broadband speeds too. What's more, the approach has even won plaudits
from the computer press. Obviously, we at Rose Cottage can make no guarantee as to use or fitness for your purpose, but you might like to
go to http://www.onspeed.com for more
information. If doing that does speed things up for you, we really
do hope you'll use your new
'whizzo' speed to keep coming back to us to see how we are doing...! We
hope we have been of help.
