Cawley's Guesthouse

We stayed here recently while attending a family funeral. This guesthouse is very unique in that it was like staying with family. It is a very cosy inviting place to stay. The rooms were decorated lovely and the beds were very comfortable. The food was of a very high standard. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and went over and beyond to make our stay very pleasant. We would highly recommend this guesthouse and personally would stay no where else. We hope to return to this guesthouse and to this lovely part of the world in the future! Aisling & Stephen Canavan & Family Dublin

We stayed here on Saturday night after The Sligo Camino. Lovely, comfortable guesthouse with a lovely bar. Our room was comfortable & breakfast next morning very tasty. The stand out for us was the lovely lady that checked us out, really friendly & interested that we were there for The Sligo Camino. Gave us a takeaway coffee for our journey home, came with us, opened the front door with 'God Bless'. Really lovely stay & would recommend Cawley's. Thankyou.

Thank you Teresa, Pierre and the Team for another wonderful stay. Everyone as always made us feel so welcome and looked after us so well throughout our stay. Loved my room which was extremely comfortable. I really enjoyed the breakfast & dinner choices over the four days and the afternoon tea with home baked scones, cream and jam were absolutely delicious. I didn’t want to leave the peace and tranquillity of Cawley’s, Tubbycurry and the beautiful picturesque surroundings. Back now to reality until our next visit! Thank you once again everyone at Cawley’s.

People continually ask why we keep going back to Ireland and South Sligo in particular. Because we love, love, love Cawley’s Guest House in Tubbercurry! With the warm, friendly welcome, clean comfortable room, and locally sourced meals, we can't imagine staying anywhere else. Teresa, Pierre, and the entire Cawley's team exceed the definition of hospitality and customer service! With each visit, we feel more like family than guests. They completely spoil and take exceptional care of us. The spacious rooms have ensuite bathrooms and plenty of storage for clothing especially when on an extended stay. There are enough electrical outlets that we could keep all of our phones and tablets charged up and ready to use. WIFI is available throughout the property (even the garden) so you can always stay connected; although with the number of things to do around town and south Sligo we hardly had time. We really appreciate the coffee and tea service available in room. Whether in the early morning or late afternoon, it is comforting to have a cup. The covered seating area outside, the lovely garden, the bar area, and the guest lounge provide lots of opportunities for us to meet up with friends and even play wild Uno games with family. We can enjoy the lovely weather, sit and visit, read a book, have a meal, or enjoy a pint. Exceptional food and drink are Cawley's hallmark. We love the generous full Irish breakfast especially the black and white puddings. Lunch is hearty and satisfying. The chicken mango sandwich is so good. After a full day of activity, dinner offers so many options from light repast to multi-course meal. Specials are available each evening and we can honestly say the shellfish are treated with utmost respect! Mussels and cockels are tender and flavorful and brown bread is required for dipping the leftover broth. Definitely save room for dessert. Rhubarb tart, lemon tart, chocolate cake, and pavlova are almost too pretty to eat, but do it. After dancing at the ceili, the bar is the late night place. During South Sligo Summer School, we enjoy listening to the session musicians and having a drink. While many go for well-known beers and cider on tap, Cawley’s features local beers and spirits. We love that the bar staff makes cocktails of all kinds, welcome suggestions, and continually update the drinks menu. Even when the bar is filled with thirsty patrons, the Cawley’s team makes sure everyone is quickly served. On this visit we brought over a dozen friends for dinner and drinks during our first week and had family (brother in law and two nieces) join us for a few days during our second week. Everyone agreed that they now know why we stay at Cawley’s. Hospitality, comfort, great food and drink all delivered in one special place. Can’t wait for our next visit!!!

The public areas are fine if somewhat dated, the staff here are all absolutely lovely but.... our room was very dated and smelled very musty and damp. Unfortunately there was quite a lot of mould in the bathroom and bedroom. The bed was very creaky and uncomfortable. The room was in dire need of renovation and an extractor fan in the bathroom . The breakfast was good with a good selection but we were disappointed with the evening meals. All in all having read the good reviews we were very surprised and disappointed.
