What a pleasure Tony’s place is. If you’re looking for a place for an extended stay, Tony’s is perfect for a solo traveler such as myself, or a small family. It didn’t take long for it to feel as though it was my own home, with all the familiar things. Lovely to return home to in the evening, and if you’re traveling during the colder months, the beds have mattress warmers which can feel like the most luxurious thing after a day experiencing Achill’s harsher weather. One of the most pleasant aspects was being able to wake up and set out for a walk on the beach (strand). You’re only steps away, and the constant wind and sound of waves is a perfect soundtrack to a vacation.
Dugort is located well on the island’s northern shore. It’s a bit tucked away, but making your way to some of the larger villages on Achill is a simple and quick drive.
