Get in

  • Manorhamilton is on the National Primary Route, N16, about half-way between Sligo, County Sligo and Enniskillen, County Fermanagh (which is in Northern Ireland). Don't be fooled by the designation of the N16 as a National Primary Route, much of the road is narrow and twisty, so care is needed when driving. It is worth the effort, though.
  • '''[http://www.buseireann Bus Eireann]''' serves Manorhamilton each way to and from Sligo 4 times a day, the journey takes about 35 minutes.
  • Get around

    Manorhamilton is quite small, and easily manageable on foot. However to discover much of the surrounding countryside a car or bike is required.
