Mountcharles in County Donegal is a small village only a few miles west of Donegal Town. Part of the famous Wild Atlantic Way, the Pier overlooks Donegal Bay and the area boasts a micro-climate making it a perfect place for its two popular gardens. Sea View, a plant lovers paradise, and Salthill Walled Garden are both open to local visitors during the summer months. This is the inspiration for the Mountcharles Annual Basket 2022.
