The Stables was perfect for me to get on with my writing and the outdoor private courtyard area was a great bonus I did not expect. The weather was perfect when I was there so I ate and worked outside with complete privacy, and peace all week.
The room, kitchen, and bathroom are all modern with all needed for self catering, or as a good base to explore Sligo.
If using this place as a base for exploring sligo and the west of Ireland it is perfect, as very near to the sligo walkway, which I walked some of when taking breaks, and is only ten minutes drive from Sligo town, and also similar distance to surfing village Strandhill. It is also only about 20/30 minutes drive to Carrick on Shannon. At night the conservatory enables you to watch the stars - if its a clear night. The local village has one good shop for buying food for shopping- but no where to eat out as such. ( A few fast food places, and pubs are available locally but I didn't use these) . As a host Wendy was perfect, relaxed, quick to reply, and left you to do what you needed but also was around for any advice or inquiries.
