Bus Hire
While our on-site facilities are perfect for your special occasion you may still want to venture out to explore a local pub. There are several pubs not too far from Boglands where you can listen to live music, dance, and have a great night chatting with the locals.
These pubs are well run, and are very welcoming to Groups from Boglands. Contact Us for an updated cost for a return bus to a local venue. You pay the driver directly.
Let us know when you book if you want to go to the pub/disco and we will organise that for you at no extra cost. You pay the driver on the night.
There is a local bus company that may be able to collect you from your home location to bring you here and back.

Optional Extras - FAQ
What is a good time to be collected to go to the pub?
9:30 pm is a good time to be collected. By the time you load up and get going you can be at the pub by 9:45(ish).
How do we pay for the bus?
You can pay the driver of the bus. Cash is the preferred option.
How do we book a bus?
Book a bus with Brendan Mangan – 0861703827
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.
Is there music in the pubs?
Yes. We reccomend The Blackthorn. 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.
