The Hotel
Named after the iconic poet who once spent his summers in Sligo, the Yeats Country Hotel offsets its rural location with sterling facilities and plush interiors. Open fires steep the hotel in a homely warmth, and establish an unpretentious elegance which carries through from the traditional furnishings to the hearty fare on offer at mealtimes. The on-site restaurant employs locally-sourced meat and veg wherever possible, and provides plenty of fuel for days spent trekking along coastal trails or honing skills on the nearby links golf course. Boasting a resplendent spa and leisure centre, the hotel offers a vibrant spectrum of fitness and relaxation options, which range from circuit training to toasty hot stone massages.



The Stay
Kicking back in an en-suite double room, visitors can get their stay off to a flavourful beginning with a bottle of house wine on arrival. A stirring view of the wind-swept bay will feed the imagination before guests tuck into a four course evening meal on one night of stay. Full Irish breakfasts each morning will kick-start days spent exploring the gym and spa facilities, and visitors can even treat themselves to a final lie-in as they make the most of an extra-late 2pm check-out.



Groupon Recommends
Those with sturdy sea-legs may like to charter one of the many hire boats available, the facilities of which can be used to go deep-sea angling, reef-fishing, or just to hop over to one of the neighbouring islands for the day. Poetic souls can make a pilgrimage to the careworn walls of Elsinore Lodge, and muse on the many months W.B. Yeats spent there in his youth. Alternatively, intrepid sorts can test their mettle on the slopes of Benbulben Mountain as they attempt to reach the table-top plethora of one of Ireland’s most famous peaks.

Transport
Trains: Low-cost trips available from Dublin, Cork, Limerick, and Galway. Sligo train station is roughly six miles from the hotel.
Road: The hotel is accessible by following the N4 or N16 and changing on to the N15 toward Rosses Point.

Groupon Top Tip
If visiting Elsinore Lodge, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for a glimpse of its supposed founder: the pirate captain Black Jack, whose ghost is said haunt its rooms to this day.

Reviews

Yeats Country Hotel received a king-sized 4.1/5 from Hotels.com users, while TripAdvisors awarded 3/5. The hotel’s décor and family friendly nature split opinions, but visitors were generally quick to praise the staff, coastal location and cosy public areas.

The staff were on all occassions very flexible and worked hard to meet all our needs. The downstairs bars and seating area is a lovely area to relax ...with log fires going ...making it very cozy. I reccommend the spa and a sea weed bath in particular. [sic]

The public areas of the hotel are very warm and inviting, 2 lounges with open fires and comfortable seating, a modern bar and separate entertainment lounge. As mentioned in other reviews the hotel is in a perfect location, golf next door, a few minutes walk [sic] to a lovely beach with spectacular views and just a few miles from Sligo town.
