In the heart of the West of Ireland, just beside the lovely little town of Westport, you’ll come to a unique guesthouse. The owner is a Frenchman who fell in love with this place over 15 years ago.

The property consists of 4 traditional Irish cottages set in a huge, stone wall-enclosed garden a short distance from the ocean. Tranquillity, beauty, peace and quiet and all the home comforts you could wish for... this is a magical place that will make for a holiday you’ll never forget.

There are 5 bedrooms with ensuite bathroom, from 40 to 60 € per person per night. You have the option of reserving anything from one bedroom to an entire house.

Guests have the use of 3 different living areas, complete with a fireplace and a stove. One lounge includes a grand piano and a harp for any budding musicians.

We have private facilities to help you stay in shape, including a sauna and a hot tub with ocean views. The hardiest souls can go swimming in the sea in front of the house...

Taking it easy, walking, music, chatting with the owner and home-made porter cake washed down with a good cup of tea are some of the delights that await you.

There are two golf courses are located just a few minutes’ drive away. You can go fishing or horse-riding along the beach. Westport has a wide selection of shops and pubs, just 5 km distant. If you fancy a day trip, Connemara, North Mayo and Achill Island are less than an hour away by car.
