Eileen is an exceptional host for an Airbnb stay. As mentioned by other reviews the apartment is just superbly maintained with no shortage of thoughtful touches in it. I have stayed in about 20 or so places booked through here at this point and Eileen's place is right at the top of that list. It is really well kitted out, anything you would want for a stay is available. The apartment is so quiet and the area itself is really peaceful, it is like there is no other world outside at all. You can see lovely sunsets from the outside decking area in the evenings. Most of all though , the bed in the apartment is like something from heaven. I know from other places that beds can be hit or miss in some airbnbs so it is always something I keep an eye out for in reviews. I doubt there is any property on this website with a more comfortable place to sleep each night.
The location itself is ideal for exploring around Ballycastle. Downpatrick Head is well worth a visit. Lacken Strand might be one of the best beaches in Ireland that I had never heard about before. The Ceide Fields is also well worth going to have a walk around. For food there is a lovely cafe in Ballycastle, Mary's Cottage Kitchen that does great grub.There is no shortage of things to do in the area and each evening it is a treat to come back to such a homely place and host. Finally a special mention too for Eileen's dog Charlie, he is the cutest little friendly dog you could hope to meet. He has a great personality and just loves to interact and play.
Eileen and her husband Michael are wonderful hosts, you couldn't ask for more in a place to stay and my wife and I are already looking forward to going back to North Mayo next year.
