Introducing Boyle & Around

At the foot of the Curlew Mountains, Boyle (Mainistir na Búille) has been somewhat usurped in recent years by Carrick-on-Shannon in terms of development. There’s plenty to interest visitors here, though, including the hands-on King House Interpretive Centre, a 4000-year-old dolmen, an island-scattered forest park and beautiful Boyle Abbey.

If you’re here at the end of July, you can catch the lively Boyle Arts Festival (966 3085; www.boylearts.com), which features music, the­atre, storytelling and contemporary Irish art exhibitions.
