Hostel/Group accomodation in Roscommon

    Hey Roscommon Boarders!

    I'm desperately looking for a hostel or similar accommodation in Roscommon. We're planning to go there this weekend, and we can only find a campsite. Only that we want a more social weekend, rather than a tent-pitching occasion (which we usually don't mind doing), so we're looking for a hostel.

    There is about 9 of us going, and it's for two nights. We would like any help recommending a place that we could go to, but hostel would be prefered, as price is in our range and it suits are requirements.

    I have tried many different websites using search facilities, but none deliver information.

    I hope someone can offer some advice for me, and I appreciate that you took the time to read this message.

    Many thanks,

    Dave.

    chahop,

    The trip was excellent. It turned out to be great. We all went to the Boda Borg complex in Lough Key Forest Park, an exhibit I highly recommend. We were catering for a group of young adults, aged 17+, and they loved this place.

    However, we could not sort any accommodation in Roscommon, so we went further afield and got accommodation in The Gyreum (www.gyreum.com) and stayed there. It was very unusual, but it was most enjoyable.

    Overall, a successful trip.

    I love Roscommon!

    :)
