We just spent four wonderful days in this lovely cottage in Parke with our 3 kids and we absolutely adored it. The view from the dining area is calming , looking at cows walk around the field happily. There is a scenic walk to a lake just meters away. Well recommend it to anyone looking to switch off and enjoy nature. The house is perfect and very homely and the hosts are caring and helpful. Its a short drive away from Castlebar and other towns. Go for it and make the most of it ! We already miss it and kids want to go back !
