Glenfarne or Glenfarn[2] (Irish: Gleann Fearna)[3] is a village in north County Leitrim, Ireland. It is the site of the original 'Ballroom of Romance', which inspired a short story by William Trevor that was subsequently turned into a television film in a BBC/RTÉ co-production. Glenfarne has a lakeside forest near Lough MacNean. The village is located on the N16 (Sligo–Blacklion) road, 13 km east of Manorhamilton.
