Donegal downturn

For years thousands of people have been travelling across the border to enjoy a warm welcome in county Donegal

But there are fears the credit crunch and strong Euro may have a drastic effect on that link.

In the first of a two part series, our North-West reporter Keiron Tourish investigates if the holiday homes in the county will still have the power to draw people across the border in these more austere times.

The cost of having a home from home in County Donegal has just taken a hike. The Irish Government is to impose a new annual two hundred euros charge on second homes.

Some holiday home owners fear the levy could be the thin end of the wedge and even higher charges could follow.

In the second of two reports, our North-West reporter Keiron Tourish investigates whether changing economic times could herald the end of the coveted Donegal hideaway.
