About this property

This cosy detached cottage is situated in the grounds of the owners’ sheep farm near the village of Curry in County Sligo. Surrounded by peaceful countryside and with a private forest on your doorstep, this lovely cottage is the ideal choice for a relaxing break away from the stress and fast pace of everyday life. All on the ground floor, this traditional country cottage which was originally built in 1850, has been lovingly restored and has a spacious open plan living area comprising a well-equipped kitchen with dining area and a sitting area, as well as two comfortable bedrooms. To complete the accommodation there is also a family bathroom. The owners are keen organic farmers with friendly sheep in the neighbouring fields; you can even pick your own blackcurrants, blackberries and wild strawberries! Relax in the garden with a refreshing drink or barbecue whilst planning the next day’s activities. The village of Curry provides an excellent touring base with many of County Sligo and County Mayo’s finest attractions within easy reach including sandy beaches at Enniscrone and Strandhill as well as the Museum of County Life near Castlebar. Alternatively, walk on Queen Maeve’s Trail which takes you to the summit of Knocknarea with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean. Why not spend a day with the kids at Lough Key Forest and Activity Park near Boyle or try a spot of horse riding at Banada? Sligo town is only half an hour away and offers shops, pubs, traditional music and delicious eateries. Afternoons can be enjoyed browsing the Niland Art Gallery or standing at the foot of Glencar Waterfall. Whatever the weather and whatever your age, you will be sure to have a fantastic time at this delightful country cottage in County Sligo.

The small, rural village of Curry is situated in south County Sligo close to the borders of County Mayo. Home to a local shop, pub and restaurant, Curry (derived from the word ‘corrie’ meaning ‘round hill’) is a wonderful base for visitors coming to this region with wonderful attractions in all directions. Just a short drive from Knock Airport and half an hours drive from Sligo, Curry is surrounded by lush farmlands and offers wonderful walking and cycling opportunities.

    You feel yourself at home, even better.

    The beds was so comfortable top quality. John and Marie are lovely people. They took the children to feed the sheep and gave us lovely organic vegetables. The cottage was stunning outside and lovely views of the woods. We will be returning to this beautiful place again.

  • Carol

    We took trips out every day to some wonderful places, even swimming in the Atlantic sea, but it was always lively to come back to the cottage.
