Description from owner

Description

If you are looking for a really relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle of every day modern life but want to have your comfort Alder Cottage is for you.

Situated at the foot of benbo mountain in unspoilt Co. leitrim, the house is nestling well off the road and is surrounded by mature trees with a view over the rolling fields.

Built before 1845 the house has been completely renovated to the highest 4 star standards whilst keeping its traditional exterior.

Having spent the day hiking around the many beautiful places nearby relax in the spacious bath and shower, and then enjoy the

glow of the open fire in the comfortable sitting room. Read some of the available books or just chill out in front of the flat screen tv with one of many dvds provided.

Order an organic meal from the farm, and enjoy the warmth from the wood stove in the dining room and your holiday is complete!
