- Arlene B40 contributionsVery Nice OutingThis was a very nice outing. The views of the sea were nice. There were statues of a woman waiting for her sea faring husband and a man on the water pointing to the dangerous rocks. There was also a golf course with wonderful views.Visited August 2021Travelled as a coupleWritten 2 September 2021
- Elaine Kennedy511 contributionsA short visit but worth it.A nice scenic drive along will deliver you to the statue of the maiden with outstretched arms to sea. The lifeboat station is located nearby and a great view of the bay. A must see when on route and time to pay tribute to those at sea young and old.Visited September 2021Travelled with friendsWritten 10 September 2021

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Something wildly romantic about Rosses Point. The sky was a fascinating ever changing landscape in itself whilst we were there, as was the sea. Watching the hardy junior sailors in the World Championship at the Sligo Yacht Club was wonderful, so independent and capable.

Highly scenic spot, with access to a really nice beach walk.
A few pub/ restaurants nearby, along with the main hotel, so a handy place for a lunch break.

A lovely seaside location. Great views across the bay with Benbulbin in the background. Spent a while walking around and ended up at the yacht club for ice cream. Beautiful spot to rest and relax looking out across Sligo Bay - very peaceful and serene at the end of the day 😍

We loved Rosses Point, great swimming area, lovely walk. Hotel here so you have all the amenities. Picnic area also. There is a van selling teas & snacks but it did not have regular opening hours.

Stunning, awesome and a golf course in perfect condition, just been back to Sligo for a golfing trip and played Co Sligo golf course last Tuesday. The course is immaculate, perfect condition for this time of the year. For anyone or any golfing group that fancy a golf trip, well it's a no brainer, Co Sligo is a huge must visit,especially with the awesome treatment and welcome from the governor, David O'Donavon, Gerry Fox from the pro shop and Kim Kennedy from the upstairs restaurant.
We were a group of 8, and it was a huge pleasure to re visit Co Sligo golf course again.
Many thanks to everyone for a fantastic golf day.
