“This guest house strikes me as a particularly good choice for those wanting a quieter location still within easy reach of Westport's attractions. The recent renovations to this 1930s cottage seem to have been thoughtfully executed, especially considering the needs of travelers with pets. I think the combination of a full Irish breakfast using local ingredients and the garden, makes it a very pleasant place to stay.”

wonderful breakfast and convenient parking

convenient parkingfriendly staffsmall towel
the parking was convenient on site. the staff was very friendly. breakfast was great.. there was a wide variety to choose from. the room itself was a decent size, very clean, and well-kept.
the bath towel was on the small side. there was only one towel per person. i would have preferred a larger, plusher towel for a more comfortable experience.
Facilities

the room included a mini fridge, i found it so useful for keeping my drinks cool. the location allowed for a short, sweet walk to the quay. the breakfast was good, a proper irish start. the staff was cute, i felt at home.
the bathroom window wasn't properly sealed, a tiny draft came in during the stormy night, i noticed it.
