As the gateway to Inishowen, the village of Quigley's Point stands as a quaint rural settlement on the west bank of Lough Foyle: the point where river lapses into lough and the Atlantic stretches into distant view. The village itself is an eclectic mix of old and new with ancient churches, crumbling farmhouses and traditional pubs juxtaposed with newly built restaurants and modern housing developments. Originating from an ancient Irish tradition of land division, the name, Quigley's Point, in its Gaelic version, refers to the point of intersection of five local townlands. Today this still holds relevance as the village marks the midway points between Moville, Carndonagh and Derry, providing access into the heart of Inishowen via a mountainous, wooden valley.

This heritage is strongly felt when one stands amidst the several hundred year old trees predominating the area lending a mystical quality which is heightened only by the sea's continual hush. Today the access roads are wide enough for ease of traffic flow, yet away from the main routes life is almost as it was; relaxed and peaceful. While Quigley's Point may not be the final destination for holiday makers, it does, however, offer that ambiguous feeling that things are distant enough to be forgotten about, if necessary, but close enough for convenience, when required. Derry is only 10 miles away with its unique walled city and excellent shopping facilities; Moville is 8 miles further north and offers countless bars, hotels and sea walks and Carndonagh, while inland, is as the heart of Inishowen offering shopping, banking and other facilities while providing transport routed to Buncrana, Malin Head and Culdaff, all of which are major tourist attractions.

For Permanent residents Quigley's Point has a primary school for children up to 12 years of age (older children may attend secondary school at either Carndonagh or Moville), a community centre for local adult education classes, a post office, shops, caravan site, old people's home and several pubs. The village is tastefully laid out in a linear pattern along an old road network and hence offers safety and privacy. Unlike nearby border towns such as Muff, large-scale development has been restricted and the building that does occur is mostly private and exclusive. Foyle View Point is representative of this and aims to provide exclusive living in a rural environment with close proximity to Derry City.

A limited number of properties are currently under construction on one of the most breathtakingly beautiful sites. Surrounded by mature, deciduous trees, native to the natural environment, the houses will stand incorporated into this magnificent rolling landscape with totally uninterrupted views of the Foyle. These views will always remain so since the only thing separating site from sea is the main Derry-Moville roadway and this road simply falls away to shingle and mudflats as is the norm in such an estuary setting. You will not be disappointed with Foyle View Point, whether for permanent or holdiay living. The residences themselves offer extravagance beyond words with unrivalled spaciousness and views to indulge your senses, helping you to relax, unwind and enjoy life as it should be ............ peaceful.
