Such a beautiful cosy home with heated floors and a fire! The surroundings were beautiful, not to mention the friendliest cats ever and two gorgeous ponies. Seán (the host) was so lovely and speaks beautiful Irish too. Would absolutely recommend to anyone from a few friends to a full family trip. Will be definitely be staying here again! Go raibh míle maith agaibh.
We loved our stay at this property. The managers were friendly, accommodating and responsive to our questions. The cats and ponies were an extra bonus that made the trip. We used the kitchen quite a bit and had everything we needed. We did not use the washer because we didn’t have a dryer or way to hang clothes. DVDs were great. Beds were comfortable. Heated floors was nice. Great to have a tub and shower. Thanks again!
We have stayed at the cottage before Sean and Suzie are brilliant host's. There is everything you need and it is well located. The perfect place to stay.

Great place to stay, nice and quiet. Safe for kids & close to great shopping town.
This property was in an excellent location with bpth claremorris and ballyhaunis near-by with plenty of shops,restaurants and bars.
The cottage was cosy, clean and had everything we needed.... We will definitely stay here again 👍😁
Lovely house exactly as seen and described. Very good hosts, had a folder full of information for things to do whilst you are staying there. Beautiful views of the night sky due to the rural location of the property.
The cottage is really nice, not too far from Claremorris (groceries, pharmacy and more).
We had a great stay with a really calm neighborhood! Beware of the cats, they ask for pets really often.
Also, the cottage has many nice things to visit around: beaches, museum, castles... and Sean and Suzi have put together a binder with great recommendations.
Séan and Suzi have done a fantastic job at converting a piece of history into a present-day retreat home. They communicated with us before during and after our stay and made sure we had everything we needed. Excellent location and amenities and a genuine Irish holiday location! Thank you, Suzi and Séan!!!
We had a wonderful stay at this quaint cottage! The house was warm and clean with everything needed to feel at home. The hosts are delightful-checking in to make sure we had everything we needed and flexible with timing. We will stay here again - the worry is everyone will want to stay at this gem! Slainte!
This location was ideal for us and our dogs as we needed to escape the madness of fireworks over Halloween and enjoy a quiet countryside break. The property was clean and well cared for and had all the facilities we needed. The owner was always on hand to deal with any issues and it was the icing on the cake to have the company of their cats and ponies
We had a great week at the house. It is so peaceful and the lovely scenery, Sean was an excellent host who gave some good advice on places to go. My children loved feeding the ponies next to the house this really gave the week the x factor plus the 4 adorable cats.This is the best place we hae stayed.
From the moment my husband & I stepped inside this beautiful cosy cottage, we felt so at home. Our little boy & our dog both enjoyed their stay. We didn't want to leave.
We would love to come back & definitely stay for longer.
Sean & Suzi, have literally thought of everything.
Thank you both so much for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage.
Unfortunately this was a work trip so I didn’t get to explore the beautiful countryside as much as I would have liked but the cottage was absolutely beautiful. Really well equipped and comfortable. The owners Seán & Suzi were warm and welcoming. Great place to come back to after a hard days work but I would love to bring the family back for a wee holiday sometime. First class.
Great peacefully location, within 7km of mainstream supermarkets.
Beautiful scenery and amazing hosts (Sean & Susie) were very helpful and considerate of our needs, as my partner is disabled, we also had two dogs with us.
Overall amazing place, and we would highly recommend it to others, "with or without pets" ,wishing to stay. 😁 Five stars all round. Thank you
It is a wonderful restored cottage with a complete and high-quality endowment. Many tasteful details make you feel comfortable.
Sean was a very nice, uncomplicated and helpful host.
If you like a quiet surrounding in the midst of the landscape, this will be the perfect place. We also liked the animals (four cats and two ponys) which live on the property.
A taste of real Ireland in Mayo. Peaceful location, characterful accommodation with really comfortable beds, rooms and living room. We both slept so well. It was fully stocked with everything, plus more, you could think of including games, cable tv, extensive kitchen equipment, high quality bedding and a delightful bath. The hosts were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and informative. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning very soon. Thank you Mayo. Thank you to our two & four legged friends.
The property is in an idyllic location, if you want piece and quiet. The house is very comfortable throughout. Sean met us at property and gave us a quick run down of the house. The information folder provided included "everything" you need to know about property and surrounding amenities. The enclosed front garden was perfect for our dog. Any enquries we had ( which were very few) were answered immediately. Sean and suzi were perfect hosts and we fully intend to rebook
