What a great start to the season. We’ve just been nominated for the YesChef Awards 2022 run by YesChef magazine which is in every kitchen in the country.

Excitement is building for the return of Roscommon’s 50th Annual Easter Parade this year after a two-year absence. There is lots of fun and entertainment to be expected this year over this two-day Easter festival on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th of April.

The Gold Medal Awards have just announced Gleesons Townhouse as a finalist in the 2022 Awards in the Ireland’s Country House and Guest House Experience category. Other finalists in our category include none other than Ballymaloe House and Castle Leslie Estate.

Eamonn and Mary spoke to Dan Dooner, Roscommon People about the future of Gleesons, how we adapted during the pandemic and developed over the years.

Roscommon is home to Kings and Castles, incredible archaeological sites and historical ruins that would make anyone stop and gaze in awe of these monumental sites that are so unique to Roscommon. Roscommon was named after Coman mac Faelchon who had come to Roscommon and built a monastery in the 5th century on the east bank of the River Suck, at a wood (ros) which was called after him (Ros Comain).

The festive season is upon us, Christmas markets, celebrations, shopping and catching up with friends and family. Roscommon has everything one might need this December, independent retailers, food stalls and great entertainment.

Room 103 at Gleesons Roscommon is intriguingly named The Aleen Cust Room. Who was this lady with such an unusual name – and what is her connection to Roscommon?

Explore Roscommon this Halloween and enjoy some spooky fun and entertainment during your Autumn getaway. Discover the origins of Samhain or enjoy some spooky storytelling, there is lots of exciting fun to be had this week coming up to Halloween.

Gleesons Roscommon has just been announced as winners of the ‘Outdoor Dining, Guesthouse’ award in the Georgina Campbell Irish Food and Hospitality Awards 2021. The awards were billed as a "love letter to Irish food and hospitality".
