Karen
Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway, staying in this late 1800's traditional farm cottage, in the upper heartlands of rural Ireland. Surrounded by beautiful countryside and nearby Lough Key Forrest Park, where you can enjoy walking, boating & paddle-boarding, fishing and Zipit Forest Adventures. Close to Carrick On Shannon (15 minute drive), and only 43km (35 minute drive) from Ireland West Airport (Knock). The cottage itself, is a traditional farm cottage, built in the late 1800's, in the small Roscommon village of Ballinameen (The village has a well respected pub (The Crossbar), with Guinness, as good as you will find, anywhere, in Ireland). It was the approximately 1985 before a small extension was erected, for an indoor toilet. Before this, there would have been an outdoor toilet, and washing/bathing and cooking, would have taken place, in the living room. Over the last 18 months, we have restored the original building, and added a new kitchen/dining room extension. Our boundaries are not fenced (just the traditional hedges, trees and raised banks), and we have a 'dogs on leads' policy, due to the local livestock, surrounding our land and our desire to keep both them and your pet safe. If you are thinking of bringing your pet with you, please contact us before booking, so that we can discuss further. We do welcome dogs, but we also have to be transparent.
2 years ago, we decided to invest in a property, to renovate, in the hope that we could let it out. It has been 18 months of hard work, but we finally started letting, at the beginning of this year. The dark skies, blanket of stars, peace and tranquillity that the cottage has to offer, is something that can only be appreciated, once you have actually experienced it and we are so grateful to be able to share this experience with you.... We are contactable by phone, WhatsApp or email, whichever is easiest. We have provided an information folder, in the cottage, with our contact details (and various other useful numbers) and are happy to meet guests on check in, if requested (and time permits).
The local pub (The Crossbar) is only a 5 minute walk away, and there you will find as good a pint of Guinness, as you will find anywhere in Ireland, along with some great Craic. A car is essential, if you are staying at Teachiñ Milis Moineir. The nearest Grocery stores/ Super Markets include: • Frenchpark – Mitchell’s – 9km • Elphin - Glancy’s – 10km • Carrick on Shannon – Tesco’s – 17.6km Aldi – 17.7km Lidl – 16km SuperValu – 16km Recommended Bars & Restaurants: • Ballinameen – The Crossbar – 750m • Frenchpark – Into The West Bar & Restaurant – 11.9km • Ballaghaderreen - Durkin’s Bar & Restaurant – 21.2km • Carrick on Shannon – The Oarsman Bar & Restaurant – 16km Places to visit: • Elphin - Elphin Windmill – 9.4km • Frenchpark – Douglas Hyde Heritage Museum – 12.1km • Boyle – Lough Key Forest Park – 16.5km King House Heritage Museum – 12.1km • Carrick on Shannon – Leisure Cruises on the River Shannon – 16.1km Carrick Entertainment (Go-Karting) – 17.6km Carrick Cinema - 16km We also have a large range of tourist information leaflets and maps in the cottage, to help you to decide, where to explore next.
