On my recent visit to Mayo I paid a visit to Glen Keen Farm in Louisburgh. The farm is located on the Leenane road (R335) and was a welcome place to stop and stretch my legs after a long drive from Belmullet (I took the scenic route, which took about 3 hours!) The farm is... Continue Reading →

Glencar is a really lovely place with beautiful scenery. We had some snow this morning and it settled on the higher ground. After a little... Continue Reading →
