Aughavas Neighbourhood Guide
Leitrim
About Aughavas
Aughavas is a small rural parish in south County Leitrim, close to the villages of Carrigallen, Cloone and Newtowngore, with Moyne and Fenagh also nearby. The area is characterised by farmland, lakes, quiet roads and a close-knit community rather than a built-up village centre. Day-to-day life is peaceful and car-dependent, with most regular shopping, banking and services found in Carrigallen, Ballinamore or nearby towns. Families use local primary schools and travel to secondary schools in Carrigallen, Ballinamore and surrounding areas, depending on preference and transport. There is no railway station in Aughavas, so commuting is generally by car, with regional buses serving larger nearby settlements and the N3 providing access towards Cavan and the wider Midlands. Local social life centres on parish activities, GAA and community events, while nearby pubs and cafés provide informal meeting places. Parkview Cottage is a notable local accommodation and hospitality reference point, and the surrounding countryside offers attractive walking, angling and rural leisure opportunities. For larger retail trips, healthcare and broader amenities, residents typically travel to Carrigallen, Ballinamore, Cavan or Longford.
