Big LOVE post for Lisa Shields #3641 home in lovely Dromod, county Leitrim in Ireland 🇮🇪 It’s in a little secure cove of river Shannon walkable to a lovely town called Dromod. We were there for 8 days for part of our almost 3 week , 30th Anniversary trip! It’s nestled in an area with just incredible vistas of lakes and mountains. We did multiple day trips to Sligo, Westport, Donegal, Galway …even Dingle and Doolin out west and south. Train ride to Dublin - an hour I believe. It’s also a half hour from Northern Ireland as well.
Just a really lush , green, incredibly beautiful part of Ireland 🇮🇪
We were able to find both sets of great grandparents farming area in county Mayo and county Monaghan as well! Local libraries were incredibly helpful.
There is so much to do right around Dromod - we could have just stayed put the whole time as well. Lisa’s home guide lays out all the local area attractions including things in her neighborhood :tennis , the harbor etc… as well as beautuful forest walks, hiking trails, and beach /swimming areas
Her house was spacious and beds comfortable with a beautiful backyard for relaxing - even some neighbor cows 💗
Lisa went out of her way to meet us in Dublin when we landed with a lunch box of snacks and waters and the communication was excellent the whole week - even a face time call when we comically couldn’t figure out the oven!
She even met us at the rental car place for hugs and goodbyes and a drop off to the terminal.
Lisa thank you so much for your hospitality and we can’t wait to host you in Easter, 2026 in our beach bungalow in Hull, MA on the south shore of Boston.
