About this property

Grange 3 miles. Set in the rural village of Sharevagh near Grange, in County Sligo, is this charming single-storey dwelling, Carpenter's Cottage. Enveloped by farmland and far-reaching views across the countryside, whilst featuring flexible sleeping arrangements, a homely sitting room, a generously-sized garden, and a private driveway, the cottage welcomes six guests, perfect for families and friends alike. Benefit from the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can fulfil your self-catering needs, whilst dining as a group, with the chance to plan your nature-filled itinerary. Retire to the sitting room to lounge in front of the woodburning stove, especially favoured on cooler days, or throughout the warmer months, gather in the rear garden, featuring a luscious lawn, picnic bench, and farmland vistas. The cottage is complete with two doubles and a twin bedroom, all offering ample storage and a welcoming feel, serviced by a well-presented bathroom, with both a bath and shower. Once you're ready to venture out, a short journey will bring you to Grange, with several different eateries to take advantage of, including Langs Bar & Restaurant, and a well-stocked Londis and service station. You'll also find the 15th century remains of Staid Abbey, the grand grounds of Lisadell House and Gardens, and Lissadell beach within proximity to your abode. Travelling towards Sligo, enjoy a stroll across Sligo Marina, tour The Model: Home of The Niland Collection, a contemporary art gallery, or perhaps enjoy the landscape around Sligo Abbey, and its gothic architecture. Recommended for outdoor enthusiasts, Devil's Chimney is a beauty spot to visit on your travels, along with the flowing waters of Glencar Waterfall, whilst Truskmore Mountain and Gleniff Horseshoe are fitting for avid walkers and hikers, displaying stunning views across the rolling hills of County Sligo. Gather your loved ones for a nature-filled break at Carpenter's Cottage.

A breath-taking journey through the Gleniff Horseshoe, a valley between the Truskmore and Kings Mountains, begins near the town of Grange in the County of Sligo. The unusually shaped Benbulben Mountain, which is regarded as the emblem of County Sligo around the world, is located at the base of the Dartry Mountain range, which includes Grange. Benbulben Mountain, which was formed by glaciers during the Ice Age, is home to a rich variety of flora and wildlife, including several species that are unique to its slopes in Ireland. A variety of stores, bars, and restaurants can be found in the county town of Sligo, which is just 10 miles away. Due to the quantity of shells in the waters surrounding the town, its name is derived from the Gaelic word Sligeach, which means Shelly River.
