Located in the heart of Newport on the Wild Atlantic Way, this thoughtfully renovated home is a comfortable and stylish base for exploring some of the very best of the west coast of Ireland.
Sleeping up to 7 guests, the house is ideal for couples, families or friends looking to enjoy beaches, coastal drives, hiking trails and nearby towns at a relaxed pace. Newport is perfectly placed for visiting Westport, Achill Island, Connemara, the Great Western Greenway and Galway region.
As the gateway to the Mayo International Dark Sky Park, Newport is also a wonderful place for stargazing — with clear night skies often visible right from the house.
Although centrally located, the house is tucked away on a quiet little lane just a short stroll from cafés, pubs, shops and local amenities. Free parking is also available for guests.
Guests have private access to the entire house and garden during their stay. I’m also always happy to share recommendations for local activities, places to eat, beaches, scenic coastal drives and must-see spots around Mayo and Galway.
