Teach Solais Fhánada is located in Ireland’s most northerly Gaeltacht. It is operated as a community social enterprise offering guided tours of the lighthouse and accommodation in the original light-keeper’s houses as well as a café/gift-shop.  It has been voted one of the most beautiful lighthouses worldwide and in its stunning location on the Wild Atlantic Way, has featured in many global marketing campaigns, while visitors come from all corners of the world. Teach Solais Fhánada is supported by Pobal, Údarás na Gaeltachta, Fáilte Ireland and Donegal County Council.
