Conroy's Old Bar, Ireland's Private-Pub Holiday

Field notes

Conroy's combines accommodation with a preserved village-pub interior rather than a themed recreation: the pumps, optics, stone floors and polished bar remain in place. Guests stock the private bar themselves, with taps, cooler and gas supplied by the property. The main pub sleeps six, while an adjoining house adds 15 beds for larger groups. The site also positions Aglish as a central base for trips to Lough Derg, the River Shannon, Birr Castle and nearby golf courses.
