Written in 2015, please note that this whole walk is no longer accessible, the B&B is no longer in business and that the app is defunct. A depressing state of affairs!

A sight to behold

Late April and the early part of May is the time to savour the resplendence of bluebells in Ireland. In Roscommon, we recommend turning off at Lecarrow on the N61 and travelling a few miles on windy roads until you’re by the banks of the Shannon at Rindoon to find a real treasure trove.
 
It’s the best time to visit the wood and see the bluebells and other spring-flowering plants, such as primroses, wood anemones, early purple orchids, etc. It is must see when in the area – added to this is the exquisite birdsong from the trees above. Best enjoyed in early morning sunshine.

Awarding-winning hosts

Narrator Richard Collins owned nearby award-winning St. John’s House B&B with his wife, Liz. Together they offered a wonderfully intimate and relaxed break by the banks of the Shannon in beautiful Roscommon. No wonder Georgina Campbell awarded them the 2015 B&B of the Year. Below you’ll find the full audio tour of Rindoon that we produced with Richard Collins covering the medieval castle of Rindoon as well as the wood and a host of other treats.

Download it for free and also get a handful of intimate audio tours of other hidden gems on Roscommon on our Real Roscommon Experience app – available for Apple, Android and sat nav devices.
