I can't say enough good things about this house. It is a perfect rental house with a wonderful view and steps to the beach. Everything was just as advertised in the photos and the space is made for groups. Michael, the owner, replied to all of my questions both before we got there and while we there in timely fashion. He gave us recommendations on drivers, chefs and golf so we can't thank him enough.

The perfect getaway. Immaculately presented with all the amenities you could wish for. Our family of 9 rented Avalon house for 7 days. The open plan arrange is spacious, clean, and bright with excellent thermal comfort throughout the house.
We hosted a family lunch over the weekend (25 people) requiring an additional table & and chairs. Michael & Eamon happily obliged, coordinating everything we needed including glassware & plates, responding promptly and graciously to all our queries & offering helpful advice on local shops and tourism in the area.
Views from the house were fantastic despite the weather, amazing walks along the beach just 2 minutes away. A short drive to Louisburgh.
We will definitely be booking again if we are lucky enough to get availability. Highly recommend, certainly 5 star!

My friends and I rented out Avalon and Lagan combined for a stay in Feb 2023. It was a perfect stay. The houses are spectacular and gorgeous, and every room is fitted out so perfectly, you'd think you were in a high-class hotel. The location of both houses is also magnificent. The beach is so close and the Mayo scenery is wonderful. Michael was the best host we could have asked for and was kind and accommodating in every interaction we had with him. I could not recommend this place enough. It is one holiday I've been on where we wanted to come back to these houses in particular, as usually we pick a new location each time we go away in Ireland. Thank you, Michael!

This spacious light filled wonderfully situated house , along with it’s accompanying humans, a very welcoming and attentive Michael Durkan, his excellent bread making brother John and bright energetic housekeeper/cook Georgina Grady provided for our large family a fabulous 2 week vacation . Georgina provided us (with help of her mother) with some excellent basic Irish home cooking. We hope to repeat this vacation in this beautiful setting again. Thank you Michael, John and Georgina Kay and Otto

Out of this world The are no words to explain our stay in Avalon Oldhead Beach only..Out of this World…this house is The Dream House… we had to pinch ourselves a couple of times. I would highly recommend staying here.. Michael was wonderful to deal with from the start to finish of our stay.. there was everything in the house.. and the views were breath taking…it has oldhead beach at your doorstep and Croagh Patrick to your right, which was as clear and looked so close.. There was 18 of us staying in this wonderful dream house.. It will not disappoint… I will most certainly be back… Thanx a mill Michael.. Ciara

Unique, memorable experience We decided on Avalon as our destination for a family birthday celebration for a group of 12 people. It looked superb in all of the promotional sites and we were assured by its owner that it would be “even better”. How accurate he was. Without question, the smartest, most welcoming, best located, cleanest, best maintained and most cherished property in which we have ever been fortunate enough to spend five days holidays. No superlatives could do it justice. Most memorable 5 days ever enjoyed in Ireland. Thank you for being such a pivotal and wonderful part of our celebration.

We were a large family group and stayed for a week. The location is perfect with the beach literally on your doorstep. The house is fully equipped with all the amenities you'd expect from a luxury property and the host Michael and his brother Eamon were extremely helpful and even dropped in some homemade brown bread . The locality has plenty of activities like Croagh Patrick, Clare Island and a multitude of roads to explore on your bike. We loved our stay at this beautiful property , Thanks Michael

Our extended family (6 adults, 4 children) have just returned from this amazing holiday house. What can I say … we didn’t want to leave! This house has everything you need for a perfect family holiday. Great accommodation, no waiting for bathroom! Magnificent views, stroll to the beach, paddle boarding, surfing, hiking, and chilling out in the beautiful village nearby. The owner Michael, is so attentive and we even got a delivery of homemade brown bread from his brother Eamon. Will def be back!

Our large family group ( 11 adults and 7 children) stayed at Avalon for a long weekend in September. The house is amazing with huge windows taking full advantage of the incredible view of the mountains and Atlantic ocean. Such a fantastic way to start the day!
It was a great location for our get together, being just minutes walk from a beautiful sandy beach and a short drive from Westport. The house itself is family friendly. We were happy to find that a high chair and travel cot were provided. All mod cons, towels, etc and everything we could have needed were provided also.
Michael was a fantastic host with excellent communication from booking through to our departure. His brother dropped by with two delicious loaves of soda bread, freshly baked and still warm. What a lovely touch!
We had the most wonderful time and all highly recommend Avalon at Old Head Beach. We hope to return again in the future.

Rare setting with Croagh Patrick overlooking from behind and ocean beach in front of you just steps away. Had plenty of room for our multi-generational family group of 9 including three grandchildren ages 3, 6 and 15. Entire group loved the quiet sandy beach and the proximity to area destinations, including Connemara, Westport, and Achill Island. Convenient location whether you drive or hire - we hired two drivers (one from Westport and the other based only a couple miles away in Louisburgh) and they were excellent. The property was immaculate and has everything you need, including new or nearly new appliances and electronics. USB ports throughout the home made charging a half dozen phones plus cameras, iPads and Kindles a breeze. Definitely would stay again on another visit to the area. Perfect combination of breathtaking scenery, relaxation and convenience to the attractions and water recreation.
