    A charmer in the west

    Let’s face it: it takes somewhere pretty special to be christened “the land of heart’s desire” by one of Ireland’s most beloved poets. Perched on the Wild Atlantic Way, with the coast to the west and lush lakelands to the east, Sligo town is the gateway to every Irish experience you could desire...

    If you feel like a trip back in time, visit historic Lissadell, elegant Coopershill or magnificent Temple House. All three are waiting to transport you through Sligo’s stories. The town is buzzing all year long, with festivals celebrating country music, sea shanties, surfing and literature. Ones to watch for are Cairde Sligo Arts Festival (July) and Sligo Live (October).

    A taste of Sligo

    Sligo also has a delightful food scene, so fill up on the local, artisan grub at Hooked or sip award-winning wines at Coach Lane. Or, see where hit TV show Normal People filmed, with Tubbercurry doubling up as the fictional town of Carricklea, and Streedagh Point as the place where Marianne and Connell fell in love.

    From the town centre, Sligo’s attractions are right on your doorstep. Arguably Sligo’s most easily recognisable face, Ben Bulben is an arresting sight. The sheer sides and flat top have earned it the name of Sligo’s Table Mountain and, though daunting, it is accessible to intrepid hikers.

    Under the watchful gaze of Ben Bulben mountain, Glencar’s lake and waterfall are breath taking, with the soft green waters, amber rushes and quiet woodlands as tranquil now as when Yeats stood here.

    If you want to explore further, the County Leitrim border is just 15 minutes north. At this beautiful border – with one foot in Sligo and one in Leitrim, one in reality and one in poetry – it’s easy to see what inspired one of the greatest writers in the world.
