    County Leitrim in Ireland is well known as 'Lovely Leitrim'. I take to the streets of County Leitrim to ask the people: What is Lovely about Leitrim?
    Some people say that County Leitrim is the most lovely County in all of Ireland, so I visited 'the ridge county' to find out for myself: is Leitrim as lovely as people say it is?

    Jamie, your channel should double as a travel guide because the people you interview give such a wonderful description of their county. I like the pride the Irish have for their residence. It’s always a delight to watch your videos, my friend. Said from the heart from this second generation Irish American to you my Irish friend.

    I'm moving to Ireland in January or so, and each one of your videos makes me more undecided about which city/county I should move to. Donegal and Leitrim seem so quiet and cool, Galway has more of a nightlife, Wexford's got strawberries and beaches and Kildare has... horse races I guess. Every one so far have its charms. I guess I'll have to get a car and roam around a bit.

We are on a budget, but ill work 3 jobs to move to Ireland. Hands down. Lol. Kildare is beautiful. Country Town. Take care and all the best. This is going to sound corny but my ancestor who was the head surgeon of the Spanish military hospital during the late 1700s in st augustine fla. Which my family still lives there to this day. Anywho. Dr. Thomas travers was his name and he came from kildare, kilmead to be precise.

    Last night I had a pleasant dream I woke up with a smile
    I dreamt that I was back again in dear old Erin's Isle
    I thought I saw Lough Allen's banks in the valleys' down below
    It was my lovely Leitrim where the Shannon waters flow
    I stood enchanted by the scene of grandeur and delight
    I headed off for Carrick town before the dark of night
    I passed Sheemore that fairy hill where flowers wildly grow
    And I saw the grave of Finn McCool where the Shannon waters flow
    The next I saw was Fenagh Town with her ancient abbey walls
    Where the preaching of her holy monks re-echoes through her halls
    I stood with reverence on the spot reluctant for to go
    From the town of saints and sages where the Shannon waters flow
    I've travelled far through these great lands from the east unto the west
    But of all the islands I have seen I love my own the best
    And if ever I return again there's one place I will go
    It will be to lovely Leitrim where the Shannon waters flow
    Written by Philip Fitzpatrick, Aughavas, Co. Leitrim (1892-1947)

    Im born on Tyneside England. I found this interesting, as iv just found out my Ancestors fled Leitrim in the mid 1840s. They had lived near Loch Allen apparently? Landed in Wales and moved to Newcastle. Worked in Foundry's. Ancestors names from Leitrim were Mc Farlan and Mc Mannus. Have Cassidy, Mc Ivor Hurley and Browns in my line too. Not sure where they come from tho? I hope to visit Leitrim. Erin go Bragh.🇮🇪

    Honestly Leitrim is a dark horse county in Ireland. Not many think of it, but If your into very rural laid back lifestyle, community heavy or self sustainable living, trad /alternative music, football, boxing, MMA, walking, dogs, hiking or water sports, leitrim is a grand place to be and I don't think I could be arsed leaving now I have been here as long as I have.

      Hi mate, from Suffolk England with Grandparents from County Limerick. Looking to move back over like... Guess with the low population County Leitrim feels a safe place? Guessing local towns depend where you are in the county Carrick, Manorhamilton or Kinlough? Is the rest of the county very rural, small village communities? Cheers pal 🇮🇪🙏🏻
