Co. Roscommon

As it suggests in Percy French’s verses, the County retains all its olde worlde charm where the local people still have the time and warmth to make visitors feel truly welcome. This is the undiscovered heart of Ireland where traditional hospitality is at its best. You can stay in elegant hotels or hospitable Irish homes and enjoy a visit to a local pub for traditional music, song and dance. There is a wealth of places to see and things to do; opportunities to go as you please or do as you wish. The countryside must be one of the most beautiful and unspoilt landscapes left in Europe. You can walk, fish, golf, cruise, horse race or just potter about and spend time absorbing the history and rich heritage of Ireland. The friendly, attractive and uncrowded towns remind you of just how pleasant shopping and sight seeing can be. Away from the bustle of modern city life, you will feel your pulse begin to slow to the rhythm of an old-style rural community where the traditional values of friendliness and hospitality are still cherished.
