One of Sligo's many museums is located in Dromore West; Culkin's Emigration Museum sits on the site of Daniel Culkin's original Shipping and Emigration Agency, but today, features a host of fascinating artefacts, and also the Agency itself, which is housed inside the museum.

Wild otters in nearby river and fantastic dark skies if you get the right weather to look at the stars. Fantastic heating system and facilities private parking right at front door and side of cottage. Would recommend for a quiet get away.

Mrs Dowd was available to give us the keys. Rooms were so spacious and comfortable. Only one bathroom but that was not a problem for us. Kitchen had all facilities and devices. Living room spacious with tv, DVD player, and movies. Dining room huge and sits 8 but only 6 chairs (we took 2 from the kitchen). The garden is lovely and the kids had a ball playing and exploring outside. It was cold the weekend we came up but the house had heating and we used it at night and mornings. It also heated the water for the bath and shower. Overall we had a wonderful time and enjoyed all the facilities. The property was clean and all the linen was available to us for any changes of beds or towels and table clothes. Could not find fault at all!! Thanks to Sykes Cottages in Ireland.
