Old Fort Lodge

Lovely house and room. Host was very helpful in arranging transport for us and recommending thins in Sligo town.

The room/s are on the first floor up stairs; and the bathroom/WC is shared between guests, however there is a WC on the ground floor. We had to wait a long time for the bathroom to be vacant on the morning we were leaving. We found our room very small for 2 people. Tea/coffee/water is in the room however there is no fridge. There is some on-site parking. The residence is a 25 minute walk from the city.

Mary and Peter are lovely. If you're trying to see Sligo, it's a bit out of the way.

I booked The Old Fort Lodge based on the photo of a three story stone manor building set on large well manicured grass lawns, as the leading photo. There were photos of outdoor sports that indicated being attached to the stone fort or manor house. The address was 3 Old Fort Road. About the 13th photo was of a family home which I thought was an attached property. I booked two nights, received confirmation then no other emails. Worried 24 hours before hand I googled again, the photo of the stone fort or manor house came up again, same address which I googled and this time pressed the street view image to get a 360 degree view of a suburb and realised I’d booked someone’s family home. I would never have deliberately booked that. I immediately emailed The Old Fort Lodge that I was canceling (gave no reason) understanding I would receive no refund. No reply at all.

The breakfast was very well done. The pillows could be better. The place was very clean. I think small mirror in the bedrooms would be good as the bathroom is shared. Also i think little tables in the bathrooms would be nice so you would have more place to put your toiletries. Parking was great and convenient. Thanks Peter for your hopitality

Friendly, comfortable, great breakfast! We had a lovely stay at the Old Fort Lodge! The hosts were friendly and welcoming and our room was very comfortable. The highlight was the lovely cooked breakfast in the morning to get us started on our day!
