Had a lovely break here. Paul and Karina were great hosts. We had two young kids and they loved the house and the area. Beach only 5 mins walk would def recommend. Great pubs and restaurants nearby.

Paul and Karina's place is absolutely immaculate. It provided us with the perfect location for our stay in one of the most beautiful parts of Mayo. It is within walking distance to the superb beach of Old Head and short driving distance to other stunning braches, not to mention the picturesque village of Louisburgh.
The house itself is a beautiful renovation of old style cottage with all modern amenities. The beds and linen are to a really high standard. We all slept immensely on our stay. The decor is chic and luxurious, making you feel warm and relaxed. It has everything you could possibly need. Paul and Karina are super hosts and so accommodating. Genuinely we had the most relaxed holiday we have had in years. We cannot wait to come back. I would highly recommended this place.

This cottage renovation is absolutely beautiful with so many original features mixed with all the comfort of a modern house. It was the ideal getaway with our two teenage children. Old head beach is a stroll away and is worth a walk or swim everyday. Paul and Karina are always there to help and are so welcoming and accommodating. We will be back for sure.

We were lucky enough to experience this beautiful cottage when it was newly renovated. It’s really luxurious while still having the charm of an Irish cottage with exposed stone walls and wooden beams. It’s well equipped and you can tell great thought went into ever inch of this place. The beds are comfortable with good quality linens. There was plenty to keep the kids occupied locally while us grown ups had our most relaxing holiday yet. We didn’t want to leave. Thanks Paul and Karina
