The house is at a short driving distance from Westport and there are shops in petrol stations closeby to do shopping. We stayed 2 people in a double bedroom. The place is very clean and everything works and it can be used in the kitchen and bathroom and the internet is very fast. There is a very nice and warm conservatory perfect to read a book or work in the laptop; a TV room with comfortable sofas; an ample room with a very impressive neat condition pool table, comfortable sofas, beautiful wood floor and a wood-burning stove. We spent an enjoyable afternoon playing pool with a glass of wine. When we arrived the weather was clear and we had a picnic in the picnic table in the garden. We stayed for 3 nights and we used the washing machine and the liners in the garden, the clothes dried fast. I used a fenced field in front of the house to walk the dog leash-free and there is another fenced field in the back that leads to a lake owned by the farm so I could give to the dog plenty of exercises. The garden has a water fountain running all the time and a kiosk that can work well for reading in clear weather. The roads are not very busy, I went for some walks to nearby villages at 5 km and the place is quiet day and night. All the surrounding landscapes are very impressive if you like green, high hills, valleys and cattle. We went few times to Westport and we liked it a lot, there is a very good atmosphere in the bars and pubs and plenty of shopping opportunities plus there is a big public car park in the city centre beside the harbour so you don't have to worry about parking. Katrin and Marty gave us very good tips about what to visit in the area and about the history of the house, the farm and how is life in rural farming Ireland.
