About this property

Nestled in pristine, emerald countryside on the outskirts of Manorhamilton in County Leitrim, lies the delightful, two-bedroom holiday annexe of Ballyboy View. Featuring off-road parking, an enclosed courtyard, and good positioning a short drive from the nearest shops and pubs, this charming home makes a perfect base for a family or group of friends seeking a relaxing, self-catered escape to beautiful Ireland. Drive up to your new home-from-home as you soak in views of your tranquil new surroundings, with rolling hills and a nearby working farm providing an abundance of rural charm. Step into the annexe, whereupon you'll be greeted by a well-presented, open-plan living space finished to a high-standard, featuring a fully-equipped kitchen, a dining table with ample seating, and an inviting sitting area with two sofas, an armchair, an elegant woodburning stove, and a sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV. In the evenings, be sure to refresh with a long, hot shower on your way to hunkering down for a well-earned rest in either a plush double or a family room that comprises a triple bunk sleeping three, along with a single bed. If you can tear yourself from your lovely new lodgings, slip your shoes on and set out to explore what the local area has to offer. A brief car ride into Manorhamilton will bring you to Rooney's SuperValu supermarket where you can load up on homely essentials, as well as Heraghty's Bar for a drink and Gurn's Milestone & Restaurant serving up traditional pub fare for when you fancy taking a break from cooking duties, W8 Osta is also close by and has a restaurant and coffee shop. You'll find an abundance of activities and landmarks within a short drive of your front door, including the stunning spot of Glencar Lough and Waterfall, which famously inspired the 'The Stolen Child' from famed Irish poet William Yeats; the serene locale of Lough Gill; the Shed Distillery that produces the acclaimed Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin; and the Arigna Mining Experience, a centre providing underground tours that delve into the history of coal mining within the region that spans a period of 400 years! Whatever you get up to during your next visit to County Leitrim, do it from the wonderful base of Ballyboy View.

The cultural town of Manorhamilton lies in the north of County Leitrim, in the centre of the North Leitrim Glens, a region which is renowned for its hill walking. There is a wide choice of pubs and eateries in the town, and the area as a whole is known for its strong love of live Irish music, with many such performances taking place throughout the year. There is a theatre and arts centre called The Glens Centre. Manorhamilton Castle, now a ruin, has been transformed into an interesting visitor attraction, while other fascinating places to visit include the Leitrim Sculpture Centre and the Famine Graveyard. Visit Glencar Waterfall or take a scenic drive round the Erne Waterway. Explore the towns and villages of the area including Rosses Point, Strandhill and Bundoran and experience several golf courses, horse riding stables and lovely beaches. Manorhamilton is an ideal location for visiting the north west and beyond.
