What a wonderful place! The staff at Glens Centre was so welcoming and helpful, eager to help us find our way around and so accommodating even about things like check in and check out. The bedrooms are comfy and there are plenty of warm blankets. Although the common area space is a little spare and it is really self-catering (which means you'll need to bring everything you need for cooking, washing, etc.), the fire place warmed it up and made it feel like home. We loved it! Besides, the real gift of the Glens Centre is that it brings you to Manorhamilton - a place you might not think much of if you're driving through but will fall in love with if you stay even for a night or two. The village is filled with artists, poets and musicians working against the odds to preserve traditional arts even as they bring new, creative ideas to life. The Glens Centre is part of that, as is the equally amazing Sculptural Centre. The people we met were delightful - passionate, determined, curious and fun! - and because the town is smallish, we were able to meet a lot of them. We were so thankful that we happened to visit during the first annual arts festival - inspiring. You will not be in the center of the action here but it's easy to get places (by car) - Sligo Town (good pubs, weekday music and food), Donegal Town, coastal areas, off beat "tourist" and historic sites, walking. But the best part, if you're patient enough and friendly, is Manorhamilton itself. Thank you, Glens Centre, for the introduction!
