 | | Roscommon is still very much a county of wide open spaces; much longer than it is wide, it is bordered for much of its eastern flank by the river Shannon, and although there are plenty of little villages, large towns are few and far between. |
 | | It, Boyle, and Castlerea are all nice places to spend a day or two, just don't expect the nightlife to be the most hip and happening this side of NYC, that's all. |
 | | The main thing this part of the world has going for it is a chance to relax in unhurried surroundings; the pubs are friendly, the roads are relatively quiet, and there are some fine places to stay and eat too. |
