Local Area

Carrick on Shannon , the jewel in the Irish waterways has developed into one of Irelands top angling centres. Situated at the head of the majestic River Shannon, it offers the vast waters, which nestle in the hills and valleys of south Leitrim.

And whilst the angler revels in the local fishing venues, the family can take advantage of the great facilities in the area, for instance golfing, boat hire, canoeing, swimming, horse riding, cycling, and for the less athletic why not take a leisurely cruise on the river shannon or drop into the many quality restaurants and bars. Alternatively why not take a drive to one of the secluded beaches on the west coast of Ireland .
