We met the lovely host Caroline on arrival and we couldn't have gotten a warmer welcome. There was fresh scones with jam and butter and a bottle of wine in the fridge. The house was absolutely immaculate with loads of fresh towels and bed linen. The beds were really comfy and the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. The surrounding area is stunning and the cottage was a great base to explore all of this. The cottage is within driving distance to Ballina so if you're staying you'll definitely need transport to access amenities. 5 star stay and would absolutely love to come back! Thanks so much Caroline. ##### Eimear Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### anne d. 4 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Découverte du Mayo Pour notre nouvelle découverte de l’Irlande, nous avons été enchanté. En remontant de Westport, nous sommes passés par Achill Island jusqu'à la Keem Bay. Le film "Les Banshees of inisherin " m’avait donné envie d’y aller et je n’ai pas été déçue. De Ballina nous sommes allés à Down Patrick Head. Très beau site sous le soleil, le vent et la mer en furie !! Visite des Ceild Fields très intéressante. Sans oublier l’ascension du Knocknarea sous le soleil, mais la pluie s’est aussi invitée et une petite balade autour du Ben Bulben à Drumcliff. Merci aussi à Carolina pour son accueil et sa gentillesse et son époux que nous avons toujours aperçu de loin sur son tracteur !! A très bientôt. Anne & Jean. ##### anne d.
