The stunning lake, Lough Gowna with its many picturesque inlets is a short drive away and boasts wonderful fishing and boating facilities.

Longford town is 20 mins away and offers an ideal location to explore. Take a day trip with the family to Florencecourt estate and The Marble Arch Caves which offers a fantastic underground adventure. The Arigna Mining Experience is well worth a visit where you will experience the trials and tribulations of past generations. Return to the Swallows Nest in the evenings, feeling relaxed and refreshed.

Located between the towns of Longford and Cavan is the small village of Aughnacliffe in North County Longford. The village is regularly referred to as a fisherman’s paradise as there is an abundance of lakes on the doorstep, including the impressive Lough Gowna, perfect for pike, trout and bream fishing.

    We have stayed in many holiday rentals over the years and this is one of the best. The property is in a stunning location, so peaceful with great views and beautiful walks but near enough to local facilities. The house is immaculately kept and so spacious. There is room for everyone with some to spare. The kitchen was well equiped for those who prefer to home cook but the local pub just up the road is a must visit for those who prefer to lift nothing more than a glass of something! We especially loved relaxing in the evenings with the log fire going in the lounge/sitting room. I have to say a huge Thank You to Damien the owner, who has to be the most thoughtful owner I have ever encountered. Damien had a genuine concern that we enjoyed our visit and that we had no problems and had a great time. We were left in peace, but knowing that he was just a phone call away should we need anything. I would 100% recommend this property if you want a relaxing break in a beautiful property in a beautiful area. We will definitely be back! xxxx
