Inspiring views of Croagh Patrick
The cottage is a detached property situated in a large (3000m²) garden which is surrounded by large trees and bushes. It is one kilometre from the sea and offers inspiring views of Croagh Patrick, the holy mountain of the Irish.
This peaceful location will most definitely appeal. The four bedroom (120m²) cottage is ideal for up to four adults and two children.
Do you want to escape from the pressures of everyday-life into quiet untouched landscape? Then a holiday on the west coast of Ireland is exactly what you need. And with the garden there is plenty of space for a family to have fun. We discovered this paradise a long time ago and since then it has become home from home.
The cottage offers: • two bedrooms with double beds. • two children’s rooms with single beds. • living room with open fire and patio doors onto the garden. • large homely kitchen with cooker, fridge, dish washer, coffee machine and toaster. • bathroom with shower and toilet. • guest WC. • utility room with washing machine. • terrace with garden furniture hidden from the road. • WLAN. • colour TV with satellite dish (Capable of receiving European television programmes). • central heating.
From the cottage it is only one kilometre to the sea. Westport and Newport, which both offer opportunities to explore and shop, are six kilometres away. The cottage contains Linen and hand towels, and there are many books and games to play. We want you to enjoy the cottage and its location to the full so that when you go home you take with you great memories and want to come back.

Lovely country cozy cottage. Spacious and very well equipped.
Brilliant location. Lovely large garden. Lots of literature about the area. I would recommend this cottage. We had a wonderful time.
Unfortunately this property was a miss for us. Pictures must be at least 10 + years old. Should be titled peak-a-boo view of Croagh Patrick. Landscaping is so overgrown the beautiful hillsides of Kilmeena are hidden. It states waterfront, seaview of which it is neither. House is in need of a serious deep clean, cobwebs, dead bugs in every room, hot water tank not on upon arrival and heat was very low so house was cold upon entering. No hot water at all in half bath, host stated it went out a few weeks prior but no one bothered to inform me of this. Made one bathroom for 5 adults interesting. Upstairs shows in photos as single bedrooms loft area however it is just unfinished atic space. Kitchen was well appointed with plenty of pots, pans & dishes. Garbage instructions a little unclear and a bag of glass bottles remained from previous renters. The location was quiet and within a short drive to Westport. We wanted to enjoying the beautiful scenery of Kilmeena but unfortunately there wasn't much to be seen, definitely not what was depicted. This home could be so much more with some attention to details inside and out. Once the heat was on and hot water figured out it was quiet and comfortable so we stayed the week. I do think the cleaning fee should be refunded however. I dont know who sets the standards for VRBO but between not being informed of plumbing issues with the half bath and housekeeping issues I found this to be in unacceptable condition for a rental.
We were very happy with our stay in this lovely Cottage, it was very comfortable, the garden was amazing, the house had everything you would need for your stay, just a short drive into Westport, would highly recommend.
This peaceful cottage is in a great location if you want to get away from it all. Finding it may have been easier if the instructions were in English rather than German. Easy access to Westport and Newport if you need to shop.
The cottage itself was not the warmest place we have ever stayed and could do with a little tlc but generally comfortable . The inspiring views of Croagh Patrick were largely blocked by an overgrown hedge. However we enjoyed our stay very much.
We had a wonderful 5 days in this darling and quaint cottage. It was perfect for my family of two adults and two children under 10 years old. The house was clean and the kitchen was well appointed. The other modern amenities such as wifi and a smart TV were nice additions without losing the charm of an older cottage. The yard and garden area was perfect for our children to run and play. The location was a good central place for visiting neighboring towns and it was an easy walk to the pier. The owners were easy to communicate with and we had everything we needed. We would stay here again. Thank you!
Disappointed, as cottage needed a proper clean: kitchen and bathroom floors not very clean, kitchen window swamming with flies on entry and dead flies under beds and on window sills, upstairs bedrooms covered in cobwebs and dusty. One toilet slightly leaking, shower tray not draining. The upstairs bedrooms with roof windows did not have any curtains so unable to cut out the sunlight. Half the lamps and ceiling lights did not work. Cottage had a good big garden and good location but just let down by the lack of maintenance and poor cleaning.
We had an enjoyable stay in the cottage. There is a lot of useful information material, but some information was outdated (WiFi password, name and number of the local manager, number of the proprietor). This made it difficult to contact manager or proprietor when we encountered a problem. Once contact was established, the problem was resolved smoothly. There is a nice 8 km walk starting from the cottage, the finest part of which is a stretch of coastline that is only accessible at low tide. Other interesting walks are quite a distance away. Whenever we visited the town of Westport, it was raining. Westport could be nice, but unfortunately it is spoiled by heavy and chaotic traffic. Westport House was the biggest deception of our vacation until now. The house is in a bad state, and all interesting features (e.g. the gardens) were closed to the public. We visited Croagh Patrick, but instead of climbing to the top, we took the pleasant Murrisk loop, including a visit to the impressive National Famine Memorial. We strongly advise to take the loop with the clock, thus not ascending together with the many "pilgrims" of Croagh Patrick. In view of the nice views, it's a pity that the Murrisk loop is quite short. The two highlights of our stay at the cottage were visits to the Lost Valley (very impressive!!) and the most Western edge of Achill island (Keem Bay) with its many opportunities for "hikes with a view".
Wir genossen den Aufenthalt in einem charmanten Haus mit großem, gepflegten und das Haus perfekt einschließenden Garten. Ein wohltuender Gegensatz zu vielen in der Gegend stehenden Häusern, die zwar neuer waren, jedoch in kahler Umgebung wenig einladend wirkten. Die Lage war perfekt für Ausflüge zu Fuß und mit dem Wagen.
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und hat einen großen Garten. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Vieles, wie z. B. Essig, Öl, Tee, Salz, Zucker ist vorhanden und muss nicht extra gekauft werden. Bei der Ankunft erwarteten uns außerdem zwei Flaschen Wasser und eine Flasche Wein.
Ein wundervoller Rückzugsort, dessen Umgebung zu schönen Ausflügen verführt
Wir haben in diesem Haus sehr schöne Stunden verbracht. Eine gute Mischung von skandinavischem Stil mit irischen Elementen wurde durch zahlreiche Naturkollagen unterstützt. Sehr angenehm ist, dass die verschiedenen Schlafräume weitere Sitzgelegenheiten haben. Abends setzten wir uns gerne in den eingefriedeten Garten und genossen den Duft von blühenden Bäumen und Sträuchern. Die Familie stellt eine ganze Bücherwand mit unterschiedlichen Romanen und einige Spiele zur Verfügung, damit ein gelegentlicher Regentag (wir hatten im Mai keinen) überbrückt werden kann.
Sowohl der nördliche Teil Mayos (Kliffküste, keltische Kultur) und Achill Island wie auch die Berge und zahlreichen Strände Connemaras sind auf abwechslungsreichen Straßen gut erreichbar. Wir sind viel gewandert, aber weitere Freizeitangebote werden angeboten. Im Haus liegen dazu viele Prospekte, Karten, Reiseführer, die Anregungen geben. Durch die Nähe von Westport stehen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Abendprogramm zur Verfügung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
Great experience from the booking experience through the entire stay. The cottage was my Irish home for almost 2 months. Very comfortable, had the space and accommodations needed for an extended stay. Michael (owner) and Bernie (local caretaker) we’re very responsive and we’re available for questions and any needs. Loved my neighbors, the cows next door! Very quiet lane but only 5 miles from Westport activities. Westport is lovely town and good places for walking, sightseeing, restaurants. The cottage was also great as a home base to explore Counties Mayo, Roscommon, Sligo.
Wir durften unseren Urlaub in diesem sehr gemütlichen, gepflegten Cottage in der Nähe (10 Autominuten) von Westport verbringen. Es ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Der Kontakt zu den Vermietern war sehr gut ! Vielen Dank, nochmals Fam. Kiehl ! Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt hier sehr genossen !!
Maison très agréable et très calme, très bien placée pour visiter les environs.
Très bon rapport qualité prix
Très beau jardin sans vis à vis
Nous recommandons cette location et cette fabuleuse région.
We really enjoyed our stay. Lovely cottage in a great location. Would definitely book again.

Aufenthalt genossen!
Das Haus und der wunderschöne Garten haben uns sehr gefallen. Das Haus liegt sehr gut um viele Unternehmungen in der Umgebung zu machen. Leider war das Haus insbesondere die Küche nicht sauber bzw. Spinnweben, tote Fliegen und staubiges Geschirr. Mussten ein bisschen Hand anlegen dann war es in Ordnung.
It’s spacious and reasonably well maintained but could use a deeper cleaning. Bathrooms and kitchen are modernized. Nice view of Croagh Patrick mountain. Older property in the country but a shhort drive to Westport.
Really happy with the rental. Cottage was as described. Really warm heating as temperatures were frosty at night outside. So quiet yet only 10 mins from Westport. I'd recommend exploring the islands north west of Westport. Some can be accessed by causeways. Kids loved it and back garden had plenty space to play ball. We'd rent this again. Spacious yet cosy.
