Quiet Retreat!
Alder cottage was wonderful! Mary was very welcoming and helpful as we arrived. We are a family of four, two adults, one teen and one 20 year old. We had many matches and great laughs with table tennis in the stone shed area. The surroundings are quiet, peaceful and lovely. While it rained the entire time we were here, there was still much to do around the area. Sligo and Lough Gill were our favorites. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this for a nice getaway. No wifi was a bit of an issue with the kids, but we adults were fine to unplug for a few days!
Thanks Mary, for your wonderful home and hospitality.
Fantastic getaway!
Had a wonderful time, very clean, fires were beautiful, great value for money and Mary was very helpful throughout our stay. Leitrim is a gorgeous place to visit with beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere. Would definitely stay again :-)
Marvellous holiday!!
Alder Cottage is a spacious and luxurious holiday home in a beautiful and unspoilt environment. Host Mary gave us a warm welcome and provided us with tasteful organic meals. Our two children had a great time playing table tennis in the shed next to the cottage.
There is plenty to do in the North West of Ireland. North Leitrim offers great mountain walks and it is an ideal base from where to make trips to the Donegal and Mayo Coasts and Marble Arch Caves. Our children especially liked the Ulster American Folk Park in Northern Ireland. The recently opened Cavan Burren Park is also a recommandation.
Lovely
We had a lovely stay here - 2 adults and 2 kids (6mths and 3yrs).
The cottage is bright, clean, tastefully modernised, and very very quiet. Good blackout curtains in both rooms for difficult sleepers!
Location is great - very good supermarket 5-10 mins drive away, Sligo 20-25 minutes (I think!), Mullaghmore 35-40 mins with a nice beach and a great seafood lunch at Eithna's by the Sea.
Property owner lives locally and is very helpful (and makes beautiful Gooseberry and Elderflower jam on her farm :).
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get away for some peace and quiet. (note: no WiFi / internet at the time of writing, but this suited us fine as we wanted to unplug for a week!)
Classy home and hosts!!
Beautiful property & home. My wife and three daughters had a splendid time relaxing and enjoying this rural property. The home was immaculate and very comfortable for our family of 5. The owners were accommodating and always available with suggestions for local sights and activities.
We completely enjoyed our nearly month long stay. The home is rural but has great access to Sligo and surrounding communities. There are castles, oceans, rivers, mountains, fine dining, live music, and even professional soccer games all within a 15 min drive.
I can't emphasize enough how clean, well prepared, and well maintained this property is kept. We couldn't believe with all the modern amenities the home offered it was the same age as our home state of Texas (est 1845!!).
Many thanks to our host Mary and her attention to detail. Our family completely enjoyed the optional canning lessons she taught and tours of her fabulous garden.
I highly recommend this property, especially for those with families looking to explore Ireland and those looking for the best Ireland has to offer.
Absolutely wonderful!
We stayed with our family at the cottage for a week in August. The house was simply wonderful and the location was perfect for taking advantage of all that this area of Ireland has to offer. Mary was an incredibly gracious host and provided us with great information about the area.
For a week we were able to relax, explore and make many day trips North of Sligo. This may have been the first time where we have stayed in a house where the pictures don't quite capture the house's beauty. Whether we were having dinner outside, enjoying a fire or having fun cooking in the beautiful kitchen, this house exceeded all of our expectations. We would return to this cottage in a heart beat.
