VIDEO: We’ve fallen in love with this Longford tourism video

Tony Cuddihy

If this doesn’t make you want to live in Ireland’s least appreciated county, nothing will.

Longford, Roscommon, Cork… Backwaters all of them, but they have plenty of hidden treasures if you look hard enough.

Take Longford for example.

It’s not the first place you’d think of spending your summer holidays, and has none of those sexy traffic lights so loved by the people of Leitrim (show offs that they are), but after watching this video we just know that you’ll be lugging the travel Scrabble to Abbeylara and planning day trips to Granard.

For this, dear friends, is phenomenal.
