New year 3 day getaway
What a great house, everything you could want or need was supplyed. Check-in with Caroline was great, Caroline was very helpful and explained the workings of the house. Amazing living space and kitchen. Views to die for. One of the kids left their coat behind and when we got in touch with Caroline the next day, she found it and posted it on to us without any bother, many thanks Caroline Downside....Family bathroom door urgently needs a working lock. Heating is controlled remotely by host, wasn't on when we needed itin the evenings, although seemed to be on during the night. Bedroom's need updating, a little TLC. To conclude we all very much enjoyed our New Year break, we will be back.

Spacious, warm, comfortable, well appointed, great views.
The house is exceptionally well appointed and has everything that a visitor would want and more. Modern comforts in a traditional and peaceful rural setting. The beds were beautifully made up and great sleeps were had by all! The views of Lough Arrow and the Neolithic landscape are spectacular. The pretty country lane with its traditional stone walls and lovely grass centre is a special treat.

Visiting family
Great place and way more space than we needed. Breathtaking views. Perfect for the kids to enjoy as well. The hiking path right from the house was a great adventure. Close driving distance to nearby towns.

Mountainous Beauty
Private, beautiful and spacious home with unsurpassed views. Our family enjoyed our time here. There's megolithic tombs closeby unfortunately we couldn't figure out how to get to them, which would have been neat! We loved being surrounded by cows, sheep and horses. The property manager was very sweet, and attentive. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Jim

Host profile image
Geraldine and Jim have lived a number of places-Jim having grown up in Minneapolis and Annapolis, MD and Geraldine in Ballymote, County Sligo . After college in Richmond, VA and New York, NY, Jim relocated to Roanoke, VA where he lived for 22 years, raising 3 sons. Geraldine arrived from Ireland in 1988 and spent time in New Jersey and South Florida, until she relocated to Roanoke where our paths crossed. We currently live in Boca Raton, Florida. (If you're planning a trip to sunny Florida, check out our other listing, 917719)

Why they chose this property

Geraldine and I visit her Irish home frequently and were looking for a home to eventually spend part of the year when we retire-we came upon this home almost by accident, seeing a flyer in the window of a real estate office in Sligo. We got to see the property the day before we were returning home to the States, and committed to making it ours. We were captivated by the views from the home and the potential the home had with the renovations we knew we would do, and it was large enough to hold our family comfortably.

What makes this property unique

There really are no other properties that compare to this house. The combination of views, historic location, access to outdoor activities, and the feeling of complete relaxation afforded by the complete package is unbeatable.
