Comfortable and Convenient
Just returned from a delightful week in Collooney. Owner is extremely polite and helpful; booking response was immediate. Directions to the stay and check in instructions were clear and thorough. Lovely clean home with comfortable furnishings along a river and falls. The location was perfect for accessing hiking trails and dining while avoiding the traffic and chaos of Sligo town.We can recommend Molly Fulton's just a couple of miles north for excellent food at good value. Connolly's Pub in Collooney is a fine choice for a good pint. A friendly, lively country pub a short walk from the house.Some very nice hikes and walks nearby, including the Benbulben Forest Walk. Highly recommend the hike to Carrowkeel, a quite mystical Neolithic site with the most remarkable views in the north of Ireland. Also, the hike up Knocknarea is extremely enjoyable.Only one thing missing: there was no option for making proper ground coffee in the house (there is a cartridge machine). We remedied that via a quick trip to the local hardware store, acquiring a small French press. We have donated that to the house for all you future ground coffee aficionados. Now the house is perfect.
