    Great location at the foot of Croagh Patrick, and close to Westport. Scenic roads are everywhere, and the meal we had at the restaurant at the foot of the hill (150 meters) was beyond excellent.

It's interior includes 2 bedrooms (sleeps 4 people), a spacious living room, kitchen and bathroom. Outdoors, guests can take full advantage of the expansive lawn & garden patio. Just a 1 min walk down the lane to The Tavern Bar and Restaurant, It is the perfect place for an outdoor adventure for families or couples looking for a peaceful escape. The Cottage Hillside is over a hundred years old but it has many modern comforts since it's renovation in 2019. It's authentic cosy feel and location to local amenities makes it an ideal country escape. The stunning view of Croagh Patrick is one of its many charms. It also has a locked garage to store your bikes and equipment safely in, as well as a newly added mini gym if you'd like to keep fit during your travels.
Murrisk is a beautiful village at the foot of Croagh Patrick situated between sea and mountain on Ireland's Atlantic seaboard and has offered a unique blend of heritage, history and hospitality to visitors for thousands of years. The history of the area is inextricably linked to that of the mountain which has been a place of worship and pilgrimage for thousands of years. The village has a rich heritage with several significant archaeological sites, a 15th century Abbey and a national memorial commemorating the Irish Famine. This heritage combined with its location on the Atlantic coast has made the village a popular tourist destination. The Wild Atlantic Way is the longest defined coastal touring route in the world and runs through the heart of Murrisk. The Wild Atlantic Way follows the west coast of Ireland hugging the Atlantic seaboard from Donegal through Mayo down to Kerry and then along the south coast to Cork. It provides a combination of rugged scenery, dramatic seascapes and breathtaking panoramas which provide an inspiring and rewarding experience.
