www.donegalcottageholidays.com Convoy is a small, rural village in the east of County Donegal. It lies on the road from Stranorlar to Raphoe and has a growing population of over one thousand. Many are attracted by the country lifestyle and the proximity to Letterkenny which is only a 20 minutes drive away.Convoy was once famous for its woollen mill located on the banks of the River Deele, but this closed in the early 1980s with the loss of many local jobs. The woollen mills are now host to a thriving business area that has been promoted and assisted by the state development body FAS. The village is within easy travel distance of Letterkenny and the Historic Walled City of Derry and provides an ideal base for a self catering holiday.
