It was a lovely homely stay. A little remote, but houses round and about so you didn't feel on your own. Nearest shop is the garage around 4 miles on way to Belmuttel which also have shops another 3 miles along the road. House is central for many places. If you like a beach you need not go anywhere else. 1 minute drive or 5 minute walk

It was very spacious and comfortable. Quite a few of the light bulbs need replacing and the hot water is extremely hot although there are notices saying this by all taps. Scalding could easily happen. As it was mid June we did not pay extra for heating but on the unusually (for June) chilly mornings and evenings the house was uncomfortably cold with no secondary source of heating at all. The house location is excellent and enabled us to explore all areas of Mayo easily. Mary Ellen was very efficient, friendly and helpful.
