Resting at the foot of the Ox Mountains, Tubbercurry is County Sligo’s second largest town and close to Knocknashee - the Legendary Hill of the Fairies and one of the seven sacred hills of Ireland. Expect a warm welcome at the Murphy’s Hotel as well as great entertainment each evening. We venture out to Westport, a charming town on the edge of an Atlantic inlet with a Georgian town centre and stone bridges linking a tree-lined promenade on the banks of the Carrowbeg River. We also feast our eyes on the beautiful riverbanks the poet W.B. Yeats described when we cruise aboard the Rose of Innisfree on Lough Gill and we spend a day in colourful Carrick-on-Shannon.
