Jamestown

Explore Jamestown, County Leitrim, a scenic little village on the banks of the River Shannon in south County Leitrim. Jamestown is a popular stopping point for boats, as it has its own quay, and is favoured by anglers due to its close proximity to the Shannon’s lively waters. 

Discover Jamestown’s peaceful scenery, brooding boglands and stunning riverbanks on one of the many walking trails, or visit the historic Auxiliary Workhouse. A short stroll onwards brings you to Jamestown Abbey, a Francisan friary dating back to 1642. A few moments away is the Mulvey’s Arch Bar, where you can enjoy a drink before eating at the famous Cottage Restaurant, noted as one of the top five most promising restaurants in Ireland. There’s also a B&B for those wishing to stay over.
