Letterfrack

Letterfrack is a small vibrant village on a crossroads beside the sea with a large village green surrounded by trees and overlooked by the majestic Diamond Mountain and Connemara National Park.

The village is renowned for its live traditional Irish music. The well known environmentalist and music lover Leo Hallisey organises two weeks a year Bog Week and Sea Week when musicians and music lovers congregate for music as well as hill-walking and a programme of talks and discussions on environmental matters. Candlelit music sessions and poetry readings are held nine Fridays through the year in the local National School (see Events Calendar). As well as other organised and impromptu sessions there is live traditional music every Sunday through out the year in the Bards Den Pub.

The village also has a great choice of places to eat and drink from its three pubs two of which serve a high standard of bar food and dinners to the award winning and atmospheric Pangur Ban restaurant or dine in the old style elegance of The Rosleague Manor Hotel. The village also has a great café and take-away just off the village green and a tea shop at the National Park. Alternatively you could have a picnic at one of the benches on the village green.
