Wonderful getaway
I stayed three nights with my husband and 15 month old. Trudy was very accommodating and did a wonderful job of restoring this farmhouse. It is so idyllic and felt like you stepped into the past, but also cozy and welcoming. Neighboring sheep are near the house and there are a couple of fenced sections of the yard that we were able to let our toddler roam around. She was very responsive to messages and accommodating of our fluxuating arrival and departure times. Would highly recommend to anyone considering staying here!

A hidden gem
Wow! A museum in itself. So much character in the cottage. It has the most warming atmosphere. Trudy is a true gem, with many a tale to tell. The work she has done on the cottage is perfect. Located away from the main road. You here the sheep, the birds and the rustle if the trees. The early morning mist over the mountains is stunning. With beaches not far and the Irish air it's a place to experience. All ready booked for the summer. A huge thank you Trudy.

1880s farmhouse
You will feel like you went back in time at this farmhouse. Trudy is lovingly restoring it, using materials authentic to the time, from the pull chain WC to the farmhouse sink. We can’t wait to come back and see the progress she’s made with the rest of the grounds.

Planning our return
Incredible experience! you truly feel emersed in 18th century but with amenities .. Trudy is delightful and has painstakingly restored a piece of time. Beds are so comfy after a long day of trecking, The house is full of artifacts of the time, The outside space with view of the surrounding mountains sprinkled w sheep and valleys at sunrise/set is spectacular, arrive in daylight hours as lack of light pollution is excellent for stargazing but not navigation :-) ... I could go on... But most telling would be.. Our family (2 adults 2 grown kids) .. plan to return to slow down and simply spend more time in this special place...we only had three nights in Ireland consequently spent most of the day away from the house site seeing... Sligo, is about 20 min by car and cool little river town w all you need Thank you Trudy for creating this special space!!!

Christmas at Carrowcullen Farmhouse 🎄
Spent Christmas at this outstanding 1880’s Farmhouse. It was like stepping back in time with all the everyday life essentials. We were welcomed with the most loveliest hoist and owner who made us feel welcomed and at home. The owner decorated this farmhouse in a traditional and heartwarming style for Christmas with personal touches for my 6 year old granddaughter with her own room decorated from children’s Christmas books to children’s Christmas decorations even my cat received his very own cat Christmas stocking with individual touches for all, from the owner. Myself and my family had the most wonderful Christmas here arriving the day before Christmas Eve and leaving the day after Boxing Day. This is a place to relax, go back in time, absorb classic timeless pieces of furniture and art work, countless books, culture and most importantly good old family quality time together without modern day devices stopping us communicating, therefore allowing us to enjoy being in each other’s company. Would Highly recommend this experience of an old time Irish influenced Farmhouse with only a 20 minute drive straight into Sligo town. I received a handmade crafted gift from the owner which l will cherish and appreciate and hold a memory where it came from.

Set in idyllic settings, this beautifully restored farmhouse was an inspiration and joy to stay in.
Beautifully restored and an attention to detail that will keep you in wonder for the duration of your stay. Even though there was good wifi our kids ignored it for three days and simply marvelled at the house contents, a level of art conservation and preservation to authentically capture the spirit of this house. Set in idyllic settings, with great walks in nature and close proximity to beaches and shops, this property was an ideal get away to recharge our family's batteries. Trudy's welcoming atmosphere and friendly disposition made the experience an even better one, not too mention the fresh eggs from Heather's Hens daily, keeping us well fuelled for busy days. I would recommend this as a great spot for families or a group of adults wanting to explore and be active coupled with the calm of a country hideaway. We will definitely be back, thanks Trudy for a truly memorable experience.

Carrowcullen, August 2021
My family and I spent two very special weeks in Carrowcullen House in August 2021. Trudy has gone to great lengths restoring this house, with amazing attention to detail, allowing her guests to experience a beautifully restored heritage property. Everywhere you look in the house there is a something of interest; carefully chosen period furniture, a wonderfully diverse library and beautiful art work. The house itself is very cosy and Trudy offers a detailed guide to the workings of the house in her welcome letter which is worth the read. Trudy’s flock of hens and quail gifted us with a very welcome supply of eggs on our arrival. There was a convenient supply avaible from the honesty box which we regularly purchased. A real treat! The house is very well located, only a few minutes drive from Aughris beach and pier. Aughris Beach Bar serves wonderful food and is well worth a visit. There are forest walks next to Carrowcullen house and the local roads were quiet, offering great cycling routes with beautiful views across to Belbulbin and Knocknarea. Communication with Trudy was excellent throughout and her responses were always prompt. She was a wonderful host and we thouroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Trudy!
