How do we book a bus?
We have several local bus companies that you can ring. Just ask and we can pass on their contact details to you. If you prefer us to book the bus for you…just ask. If you prefer to find a bus service yourself that is not a problem.
Where do we Kayak?
In the Grand Canal. It is always calm. The canal is a safe place to kayak.
How long can we kayak for?
For up to 2 hours. Most paddlers go up the the bridge and back. They usually spend an hour in the water at the most.
Is there music in the pubs?
Yes. The pubs have live bands, and a disco as well. The locals are very friendly and are always up for a good time.
Is there a nightclub nearby?
There are several nightclubs in Tullamore, and in Mullingar. the distance is 30 minutes plus to travel to these locations. Most groups staying at Boglands prefer to go to a local establishment if they do decide to leave site. The Local Pub/Disco is much handier, and better.
Have you any recommendations?
Contact us for recommendations. We try to keep track of where the music is and where the fun is. We have mainly sent groups to The Blackthorn, Daingean.
