New parking in Rathmullan, Co.Donegal

Rathmullan community resource centre now offer parking in the grounds of their building.
It is overlooking the sea and a one minute walk to town.
This is absolutely ideal and a lovely quiet spot.
The cost is only €10 per van per night with all money going to the resource centre. A lady collects the money daily and gives a receipt. Please call the number on the gate on arrival to inform them you are there.
They have a fresh water tap for our use, cassette disposal via a manhole and they are adding a rinse tap for our use. The possibility of using the facilities showers is under discussion and will attract a small additional fee.
Motorhomecraic have been instrumental with consultation and offering advice and the local committee have responded, we thank them for their pragmatic outlook and being open to offering their grounds.
The new site will be added to the app now.

It all started here :) - respect and showing that Motorhome owners are willing to pay, creates results.

Rathmullen Parking

Excellent news, we were all neatly parked in the field at the w/e, nice spaces between us, and put out our chairs, sign on gate €10, there were MHs parked outside the gate on narrow road leading up to community centre and down in car park, very busy but an oasis up in field. Short walk down to beach and big playground.
Few MHs still there on Monday morning, spoke to a lady walking her dog, one of the residents few doors away. I said this must feel like an invasion, she said it was lovely to see people again it was very strange during lockdown and winter will be quiet.

It is great to see Local Communities AND Motorhome Clubs / owners working together for the benefit of both.
We get somewhere to park up, WITH facilities, and the Local Community get a donation towards the upkeep of their town or village.
I like the idea of these pre printed payment envelopes for usage at these locations.

Great to see local communities being pro active and recognising the benefit motorhomers can bring to a village as opposed to the eternal discussions that seem to go on at council level resulting in postponing decisions eternally.

Yeah, its good to see....... but knowing the council up this way I'd be inclined to think they'll raise planning issues somewhere along the line in the future, we hope not but they have form.
