IT’S been a frustration for locals and tourists alike – making the journey to Fanad Lighthouse…only to find the gates padlocked.
But now the Commissioners of Irish Lights have confirmed the historic Co Donegal building and another lighthouse at St John’s Point are to finally open to the public.
They are to be included in a new Lighthouse Tourism Trail.
And that could see 60,000 new visitors to the county.
At Fanad the old coastguard cottages will be refurbished and offered as self-catering accommodation.
