I stayed at John's cottage with 5 friends for New Years Eve weekend and we had an amazing time. The cottage is close to bustling towns and there's loads to do in Mayo. Excellent communication! John gave us detailed directions prior to the trip which made for a smooth journey to the cottage and he also gave us great directions/tips for hikes/swimming. The rural views from the cottage were beautiful. We were there in December so it was a tiny bit chilly in the cottage at times, but there was a wood burning stove and central heating. We would definitely stay there again! Thank you for the warm hospitality!
