Lough Melvin

One of the last havens of solitude, Leitrim is the place to get away from it all. A county of ancient stones; lush hedgerows; restful waterways; winding lanes; quiet spaces; bustling towns.

Along with providing breathtaking scenery Leitrim is also home to equally breathtaking displays of artistic talent. Artists and makers work in every media: pottery, blown glass, woodworking, metal and more - some following traditions handed down for generations and some recently relocated here for the inspiration the area provides. Photographers, writers, and painters have long been inspired by the region's scenic beauty.

Discover the exceptional natural sites and unique attractions, contemplate the endless beauty of the mountain and river landscapes, immerse yourself in art and culture, enjoy the local cuisine and take in traditional warm and friendly hospitality.
