- Cong Village. We’re going to start off with the ‘main attraction’, so-to-speak. The picturesque little village of Cong in County Mayo is finely plonked between the lakes of Corrib and Mask.
- Pat Cohan’s. Pat Cohan’s Pub is one of the more famous The Quiet Man filming locations and it was seen in multiple different scenes during the movie. Arguably its most famous appearance was during the fight scene (remember when the lads had the barrel of water thrown over them?!).
