Tullaghan (Irish: An Tulachán) is a village in County Leitrim, Ireland. Due to unrestrained property development, fuelled by tax breaks, it has now mushroomed in size and is effectively a suburb of Bundoran - a holiday resort in the neighbouring County Donegal much favoured by visitors from Northern Ireland.
It is the northmost village in Leitrim. It's situated on the 2 mile coastline of County Leitrim, on the N15 between Sligo, County Sligo (approx 22 miles) and Bundoran, County Donegal (approx 2 miles). The river Drowes denotes the border between County Leitrim and County Donegal and the River Duff denotes the border between County Leitrim and County Sligo.
