A handsome holiday home in the County Mayo island village of Achill Sound, this enticing retreat is ideal for a large party seeking a unique stay. Set on tranquil Achill, in western Ireland, it sits in an enviable position capturing panoramic views over the sea towards the mainland. Finished to a high level of comfort, with five en-suite bedrooms, it has a garden where you and your family or friends can indulge in outdoor living. At one end of the 30.5-mile Great Western Greenway, a walking and cycling trail on the Wild Atlantic Way, this is a great location for lovers of the outdoors. It is 9 miles from the island’s magnificent Keel Beach, at the foot of Achill Head.

Enter the two-storey holiday home and gather in one of the two sun-filled lounges to relax on the soft seating and chat, play games or gaze out at the views. The kitchen/diner is another large space with an abundance of natural light. Take turns preparing hearty feasts in here for your group, finding everything you need to assist you in your endeavours. There is a small table in the kitchen to pause at with a cup of coffee or a snack and a larger one in the dining room where you can congregate for your meals. A useful utility room and most of your bedrooms are also downstairs. These are all double in size and each has an en-suite shower room. The final bedroom, which has zip-and-link beds and can be arranged as either a twin or a double, is up on the first floor of the cottage, together with its en-suite shower room.

Spend fine days chatting, reading or watching the children out in the enclosed garden. Unwind on the garden seat with a cup of tea or glass of wine and dine together in the warmth of the summer evening at the picnic bench.

Perfect starting point for exploring Achill Island - distance is only 15 minutes by car to Keel beach. The walking distance to the town centre (Achill Sound) with nice shops and a pub with live music at the weekend is 5 minuts only. The surrounding is very quiet and it is a great pleasure to sit at the outside table in the garden area. From the KitRead morechen, the dining room and the majority of the bedrooms, you have a very nice view on the bay and you can see the tides changing during the day. The house offers a lot of space and everything was clean and tidy. The property is managed by Nisa McGinty, who was very friendly and very supportive: when our toaster broke down, we were brought a brandnew one, immediately! Hide
