Rosses Point Beach
Public beach
👍👍 Beautiful beach with stunning views of the Atlantic and Benbulben. Water stays shallow for quite far out so safe swimming is guaranteed if you follow the tide guide posted at the end of the steps down to the beach. Would benefit from having a changing facility for folks who value privacy, but otherw...

👍👍 The Championship course at CSGC is a spectacular, challenging layout that is beautifully maintained and a true pleasure to play. Our forecaddy Danny was a young gentlemen and helped our foursome’s enjoyment of the course immensely, helping to lower our scores and find our errant shots (of which ther...

Drumcliffe Church & W. B Yeat's Grave
Tourist attraction
👍 I wandered lonely as a tourist. After a look around the graveyard I had to ask Rev Malcolm where the main man's grave was. Very understated located just to the left of the door into the church. Buried with his wife and in full view of Benbulbin. Nice little coffee shop in site too, busy but quick tu...

Constance Markievicz House
Historical landmark
😠 Terrible.
The 3 middle aged women in the births,deaths & marriages section of the HSE couldn't be more dense, obnoxious and ignorant if they tried. Repeatedly terrible experiences made with them over the last months. Total disgrace that there isn't an alternative to having to use them.

Killaspugbrone
Historical landmark
👍👍 You have to walk there. It takes some time. Take that time. It is worth it. Not because of the church ruin, but because of the serenity of this place. Which is only disturbed from time to time by an airplane that starts or lands at the very nearby Sligo Airport. Take the walk at sundown, and you get...
