Our Story
Eamonn Sweeney and his daughter Mo Sweeney have been sending people over and back to Donegal and Ireland for over 17 years. Our story is not unique. Like many people since the 1950s, Eamonn and his wife Rose moved over to England to find work. They settled in Derbyshire and raised their family in the Chesterfield area. Donegal was always close to their hearts and whenever possible, the whole family would travel over on holiday. Eamonn was a keen fisherman and had a great deal of local knowledge of the area. As he came close to retirement age, he decided to put all this knowledge and enthusiasm for the area to good use and open their Donegal home as a family run bed and breakfast. From here he would encourage visitors to come and fish the plentiful loughs and rivers in the region and started the company ‘Fly Fishing in Donegal’. Through this business he met many individuals like himself - over and back to Donegal whenever they could manage it, taking the car, the family, the dog, the bikes and the canoe! He decided that the only thing for it would be to make it easier for people to book their ferry tickets so that they could visit family and friends and get over more often. He decided to concentrate on getting the most competitive ferry prices around - keeping track of any offers available and saving money wherever possible.
