Explore Yeats Country with this new app

The Yeats Country Guide brings the Sligo/Leitrim area to life by playing audio segments about certain places as you pass through them, on your GPS device.

This GPS audio guide brings you to each and every spot that William Butler Yeats is associated with in Counties Sligo and Leitrim. It tells you about his times there, what inspiration he got from the locations and, of course, we have some of his wonderful poetry narrated for you by talented actors and even the great man himself.

It’s been designed as a free two day driving tour, working best on Garmin and TomTom sat nav devices, but available on iPhones, iPads, Androids as well as Windows Mobile devices.

Day One takes in Knocknarea, Carrowmore, the Lake Isle of Inishfree and Lough Gill, Parkes Castle and Dromahair. Day Two brings you to Glencar lake and waterfall, the mythical site where Diarmaid was betrayed under Ben Bulben, Lissadell House, Drumcliffe where Yeats is buried, Rosses Point and Sligo Town itself.

In addition, you can also download our free Sligo Town Guide. Simply click on either link and choose your GPS device from the Dropdown menu on the top right.

Please familiarize yourself with the numbered route in advance and ensure you read the directions given where it’s suggested you stop. All guides are subject to acceptance of our Licence Agreement. We hope you enjoy them!
