Aisleigh Guest House & Self Catering

Not going to lie, almost cancelled our reservation to search for another lodging elsewhere soon as we pulled in through the narrow driveway that leads to this place. As much as we wanted to leave, we had no other choice but to stay since every hotel at Carrick-​on-​Shannon was already booked for the weekend. Despite of the circumstances, we actually have come to love the accommodations being offered. In fact, we couldn’t be anymore happier for this bed and breakfast to be our first especially due to how Charlotte and her husband treated us throughout our stay.
The rooms were quite clean with really comfortable beds. One big plus was the private bathroom with plenty hot water to go around. Found it a little weird, however, to have the sink situated right outside the bathroom. There’s also television and free Wi-​Fi to keep everyone entertained.
Best part of staying here: breakfast! This is one of those few moments when I couldn’t wait till the next day just to have a full Irish brekkie. Haven’t eaten much black and white puddings before but I found the ones from here far better than what I had in restaurants around Dublin. They also have a buffet of fresh fruits, yogurt and granola for those wanting to start out their day with a lighter meal.
Overall, Aisleigh (pronounced as «Ashley») Guest House is one of the better establishments in Co. Leitrim that provides both housing and breakfast. I’d definitely stay here again over other hotels around the area.

Quaint, cute, family owned bed and breakfast spot!
Located in Carrick on Shannon. Upon arrival, you’re welcomed with tea, coffee, and cookies in a little vintage room.
The rooms, themselves, may accommodate 1 – 5 people with either one, two, or three beds per room. Bright, clean rooms with large windows and warm, cozy comforters. Bathrooms are clean and sinks are located outside the bathrooms. Daily room cleanings as well! Tip: open the cabinet and youll find a hairdryer so you dont need to bust out your converter if you need to dry your hair. Free wifi but certain locations in the guesthouse are more glitchy than others.
Breakfast here hits the spot. Choices between a full irish breakfast (comprising of sausage, eggs, ham, pancakes, white and black pudding plus tomatoes with beans/​mushrooms) or poached eggs on test or scrambled eggs on toast. Theres a spread placed out with cereals, granola, fruits, yogurt and juices. Coffee or tea? Probably my favorite question of the morning. Ive drank an average of 3 cups of coffee per morning. Strong and delicious!
I dont think you can go wrong with this place. We were well taken care of and received such great hospitality. If in the area, i definitely recommend checking it out!
Also, pronounced «Ashley» like the name. Been pronouncing it wrong til the end of the trip. Oops.
