Carrowcullen, The Old Irish Farmhouse

Carrowcullen is an 1880s stone farmhouse, set on the Wild Atlantic Way in the Ox Mountains amongst 14 acres of unspoiled pastures. It has been assessed by Failte Ireland to meet the Welcome Standard. It offers guests a 'walk-back-in-time' experience while meeting modern comforts. Guests enter the farmhouse through the centre door leading into the kitchen. The parlour and sitting rooms are on either side of the kitchen on the ground floor and both have log burners. On the first floor are a master double bedroom with sink, a twin bedroom with sink, a single room, and a bathroom with cast iron bath and over bath shower on the first floor. On the ground floor the traditional kitchen's modern appliances are hidden as part of the walk-back-in-time experience. The kitchen's facilities are: gas cooker, under-counter fridge with small freezer compartment, small dishwasher, an original oak table with tuck under chairs, a central island (containing the under-counter fridge/freezer) and large butler's sink. Under the stairs and off the kitchen, there is a cloakroom (toliet and sink). The sitting room has a toliet and sink behind a screen to accommodate guests who might find the original steep staircase a challenge. The farmhouse is set well back from a quiet country lane on a private lane which connects to a forestry lane and the country road, offering a quiet short 'loop' stroll. One of the Sligo walking trails is minutes away . The local beaches Dunmoran Strand and Aughris Head are located within a short drive. Local shops offer produce and fuel (Collery's in Beltra and Adabrone in Dromore and on Saturday mornings in season Beltra Market offers fresh vegetables, food, eggs, baked goods and crafts. Carrowcullen is a working farm; pets must be booked in advance and subject to additional charges. Wifi throughout the house; small tv with satellite and dvd player. Linens and towels provided.
