The house is located near the Shannon river bank, close to the point where the river opens into Lough Ree. Lough Ree is a large freshwater lake famous for boating & fishing. Just a short distance upriver is Lough Ree Yacht Club which has very good berthing facilities along with a nice bar/clubhouse. Downriver is the town of Athlone. It is about 2 miles by boat to the old town where you can tie up your boat and enjoy a meal in one of the many good quality restaurants within sight of historic Athlone Castle. Athlone is ideally situated in the middle of Ireland from where visitors can venture out on day-trips every day to explore places from Dublin to Galway and Tipperary to Sligo.
