If you prefer to be close to the town centre, base yourself around Keem Bay Beach. This strip of coast is only 8 kilometres away. We also have Achill Island packages within easy reach of Keel Beach and Dugort Beach, two other fantastic options.

9/10 Wonderful! (44 reviews)
"The owner, Teresa, was attentive to our requests and offered helpful information for exploring the region. Our room was very small for a double. Had to stack our suitcases on the chairs. No room for a small table. But the price was affordable and room very clean, quiet and comfortable."
