Dempsey's Cottage is by far our favourite holiday rent so far. It's beautifully decorated, surprisingly spacious and very warm in the main rooms with a lovely stove. It worked well with our three young kids, no stairs to worry about and nicely laid out, we never felt on top of each other. The local roads are quiet and pretty for little rambles with the kids. Further afield the county has loads to offer by way of neolithic sites, castles and wood and bogland walks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and as two musicians we really appreciated touches like the record player and stack of nice records and an upright piano! Incredibly comfy beds too! It was the ultimate switch off! Roscommon town & castle is worth a visit, as are Rathcroghan Visitor Center and Strokestown House with its famine museum and walled garden. Thank you for a lovely stay!
