Glendel is located 3.5 miles from the heritage town, Strokestown, which is situated on the N5, off the N61 north of Roscommon Town. The town is 144km (90 miles) from Dublin and 23 km (14 miles) from Longford.

Surrounded by many lakes, Strokestown is noted for its wide streets. It is said that they were made this way because the second Lord Hartland wanted to make his village thoroughfare even wider than the Ringstrasse in Vienna. The town was built up around Strokestown Park House, which was built in the 1730s.
