We had a fantastic couple of nights on Achill in Catherine's cottage. The house was great for our group of 5, and everything was there for us in the kitchen too so we were able to cook our meals (& make lunch to explore the island). Very close to Keel beach, so perfect for early morning swims (or a surf if the waves are right) as you can walk down and back in ~5mins. Catherine had everything set-up for us, and it didn't take us long to feel at home after a long drive from Dublin. You might even be treated to views of the cows & sheep with your morning coffee from the kitchen window!
