We liked everything about the house. It was welcoming and clean, the kitchen with all the gear you could want for (we did a lot of our own cooking because Robin and Ferdinand caught fish every day, even lobsters and crab claws fresh from the boat on Achill made it to the pots ...). The beds were comfy, and a folder full of infos and tips about the area and things to do were there too. Lots of outdoor toys kept the kids busy all the time, no one wanted the TV at all. The bench at the end of the garden on top of the beach was wonderful to just sit and meditate or look out for basking sharks, dolphins, seals and otters. There is total silence all around, all you can hear is the wind and the water and the birds. Keane's shop on the main road had everything we needed on a daily basis. We can also recommend the Wild & Ginger Cafe at the Nephin visitor center - a french chef and the best cakes and quiches I had in a long time! Gorgeous views and the kids can run free. The aquarium on Achill island is also worth a visit, the guide is extremely knowledgeable and passionate and explains everything you see in the two live pools. And long, sandy beaches just everywhere to take a dive. Veronica And Phelim were so helpful in answering all our questions and I can truly say that this was the best holidays we had in a long time. Thank you!
