It’s a lovely and nostalgic place to stay. It was a good size with great facilities. Having everything on a single floor and no steps was great for Dad who is quite elderly. The open fire is cosy in the evenings although the heating in cottage is sufficient too when on. The single rooms are not as warm as the rest of the cottage and when I asked for a fan heater for Dad’s room, Tom came round the next day with one. Nearby in Boyle is Kings House with a lovely cafe and gift shop in the grounds. The Farmers Market is there on Saturday’s. Outside of Boyle, at Tullyboy Farm you can feed friendly farm animals. Eagles Flying in Ballymote is awesome. They are conservationists so it’s entertaining, informative and very much interactive. It’s so good I go every year. If you’re looking for an authentic, possibly romantic pub in Ballymote, Doddy’s is a gem. At Standhill Airport on Sunday’s there is The Peoples Market, for craft and food. We spent about 30mins there when we went and moved on to Shells Cafe at Strandhill Beach. You’ll pass by Dolly’s cottage, a restored thatched cottage, which a volunteer will open if you call in advance. The stunning Spa and treatment rooms at Killronan Castle is surprisingly local and a indulging way to spend an afternoon. I love the tiny pub/shop in Geevagh. Mobile phone coverage is generally better than in Greater London. Good 4G.
