If you haven't been to Strandhill in Sligo, what are ya doin with your life?! Cmon like really!!…read moreIt's such a cute little spot. Just about two hours from Dublin, and you're on the wild west coast, though not wild enough that it doesn't have some of the best food in Ireland on your doorstep, and cracking activities for all ages and persuasions - surfing, horse riding, hiking and the rest. If you're gonna say you can't afford a weekend away, think again. It was 20 euro each for a 4 bed dorm (there were 4 of us, so not a problem) If you really wanna do it cheap, they have toast and cereal for free in the morning, free wifi, free surfboard storage, a nice kitchen and cosy sitting room. It's got a real homely feel - it's not fancy by any stretch of the imagination, but it did remind me of being in my granny's house down the country. Really welcoming and friendly, and totally casual. It's about a two minute walk to the beach as well, the same distance to Shell's (you will be eating here three times a day guaranteed - see my other review!), and right across from two lovely pubs. All in all, cheap as chips, cosy, friendly & gorgeously situated. What more could you need?

I spoke to Tony the owner regarding this, and he's looking into improving them. If you're looking for a well organised B&B, where all is arranged for you, than this is not the place for you. With a very welcoming and relaxed way about it, it's simplicity and non complexity of the place, this is a great place for an uncomplicated stay.

All locals and visitors in the area gather here for a good aul (trad) session. Bring your own instrument, or use one of the many instruments in the pub. Anyone can join in! If you are not particularly musically talented, no worries, just sit back, relax and drink a few pints. Prepare to wake up next day with a massive hangover, as this place does lock ins till the wee hours. Great craic!

Liam and Mary were warm and welcoming and ready to accomodate any of our needs. This was very much appreciated after a long drive from Dingle. I can not recommend this place enough!
