"The property was private and off any main roads. However, the nearest village (Drumshanbo) was just 4 minutes away by car and approximately 9 minutes away on foot.
The cottage suited my wife and I perfectly. We enjoyed the peace and quiet but had the opportunity to drive to main towns and sites within 30 minutes or so."

"A fantastic place to stay. My elderly parents required an ensuite and this fitted the bill perfectly. Fresh flowers greeted us on the fining table. Great selection of leaflets showing you things to do in the west coast of Ireland. Would highly reccomend a visit to Parkes Castle followed by a boat ride on Lough Gill stopping at Dooley Park https://roseofinnisfree.com/ . The house is fantastic location to Sligo town, strandhill, rosses point, just under an hour to Knock airport, 2 hours from...

This B and B is an exquisite home. The host, Kate, was fun, kind and incredibly knowledgeable. We learned a lot and had a wonderful time. Also the Best Irish breakfast !

Room was clean and wonderful, staff was helpful and kind, meals were okay, but honestly the prices weren't horrific so it balanced out.
The young Frenchman from the Dungeon Bar (Samiel, I believe, I could be wrong) was the peak of our visit. Enjoyable to talk to, full of good knowledge and an EXCELLENT mixologist and artist with a drink.

We had changed our reservation, but the hotel had not received the information. However, the staff happily made the change and gave us a lovely, large suite. Very modern, though sparsely furnished. Immaculately clean and comfortable. Wonderful pastoral views. Best breakfast so far after two weeks travel.

We were totally impressed with the Riverside. Simple eloquence. Wonderful staff. Good location. A fine breakfast experience. Riverside is top notch first class.

I really liked this hotel- and the restaurant. Staff were 5 stars too! The 30Euros to use the hot tub was a bit steep- it would be great if the guests could use the amenities of the spa for a discounted rate- but all in, I loved the place- thanks Sligo :)

Property was beautiful. Only issue was kids not allowed in pool after 6 or 7pm. Hotel clerk recommended The Venue in Strandhill for dinner. Great seafood and best chicken wings anywhere.

Very safe property with motion activated lights on all stairways, fire extinguishers, railings on stairs, things of that nature. Is close to town and very walkable. There’s a grocery store nearby, Aldi, and close to restaurants and pubs. I liked how they had French presses to do wonderful coffee in the morning.

There was a little confusion at check in about which rooms we had been assigned, but it was resolved quickly.
The restaurant was not open for dinner on the night that we stayed at Clancy’s, but it was only a few km to find a place to eat.
The rooms were very quiet and everything worked well.
Breakfast was included and we requested to have it at 7:30. They were not able to accommodate that, but made it for 8:00 and it was excellent.
