I recently had a 2 night stay over Christmas in Castle Dargan and am more than happy with hotel and the service we received. The food was good with plenty of variety in the restaurant and the room was large and very comfortable. The hotel is located in rural Sligo but ideally situated near Lough Gill where there is a lovely drive along with plenty of forest walks enroute and also a short drive to Sligo town. I didn't use the spa so cannot comment on that but there certainly was plenty to offer...

The receptionist that checked me in and out was very friendly. She also upgraded me, which made my day. Mind you its my first time being upgraded. The room was lovely and spotless.
That you!!
