Overview
3About Boyle
Boyle sits in County Roscommon between Lough Gara and Lough Key, making it a handy base for exploring the midlands lakes. The N4 connects directly to Dublin (170 km) and Sligo (42 km), while the N61 runs through town towards Athlone and Enniskillen. The 12th-century Boyle Abbey dominates the town centre, famous for its unique arcade where you can actually see the architectural shift from Romanesque rounded arches to pointed Gothic ones as medieval builders changed styles mid-construction. Lough Key Forest Park lies just 3 km east for walks and water activities.
