Stunning views, lovely and quiet. Judy was so helpful warm and welcoming. She made us a fresh loaf of bread that was delicious. If there was anything we needed she was there to help. The house was lovely and comfortable and our kids loved playing in the mezzanine. I highly recommend a visit.

Myself, my wife and our four boys plus our dog spent a week here in July (during the heatwave….blessed with the weather! Judy met us on arrival and had brown bread scones ready! John and Judy are great hosts really nice friendly people, Judy walked us through the house and had lots of useful information about the area and what we could do with the kids, info about the beach, nearest towns, walks, waterfalls, small park near by and about nearest shop (just down the road and has everything you need if you are stuck for something) we had stopped off in Ballinrobe (30 mins away from house) and into lidl to do a bit of a shop before we arrived. We also visited Westport (30 mins away from house) a few times on or holidays lovely town very busy on the days we were there but a lovely experience. The house is beautiful and very comfortable with stunning views over the lake (great to sit out of a morning and evening and take in the views) the house was spotless with all you could need, lazy mornings and afternoons and evenings spent down at the small clean beach where the boys swam away no bother and at night we sat outside for tea and played board games and card games. The road up to the house is very tight with lots of twists and turns so be careful and mindful of other road users (mainly farmers with tractors). We met John out and about as we walked around the little roads as he looked after his sheep the boys had a great time asking him lots of questions he also had lots of historical information about the area! Both of them were really very accommodating and if you needed anything all you had to do was ring or text them. We really enjoyed our stay here, a great way to spent a week get to unwind away from busy life’s…I would recommend this type of holiday if you want to get away from everything and live in a bubble for a week its very peaceful and relaxing, its great!

Carraigin Ban is a sweet, spacious, comfortable house (that still manages to have the feel of a cosy cottage) that is perfectly situated for exploring so much of beautiful Mayo eg. Westport, Castlebar, Cong, Achill …… I could go on! We stayed a week & wish we had another week. Easily enough to explore with the perfect base. Judy & John were warm, welcoming & helpful. Definitely hope to return some day.
