Fishermans Cottage, Abercastell

If you ever travel into the village from the Mathri, you are given the best view of the harbour and the coastline. The meandering roads twist from right to left are very steep. It’s probably one of the best views on any day, sunsets here are amazing. The village is steeped in history, has strong roots as a trading port and was prolific in the export of slate and agricultural produce in the 19th century. Cargos included grain, limestone, butter, honey, corn, and coal. All that now remains of Abercastle’s industrial past are a few fishing boats and coastal cottages.
