Reviews

Outstanding.

Prof S,

Amazing, spacious comfortable house. Very well equipped. Gorgeous view from the massive windows in the front room. We loved the lake access for paddleboarding. In a quieter part of Mayo but Enniscrone beach and Westport are only 30 mins away.

Mrs G,

An excellent house in a lovely location.

Mrs H,

Couldn’t recommend highly enough. House 10/10. Location 10/10. Looking forward to returning.

Mr O D,

We had a lovely relaxing week at Cooltra Lodge. The house inside has such “wow” factor! The views of the lake are just stunning. It’s so quiet and peaceful, we even caught a glimpse of an otter. The house is very well equipped and is very comfortable, even with 2 teenagers with us, we all had a lovely time!

Mrs M,

Excellent family holiday. Everything we needed and added bonus of books and games to keep everyone amused. Location just perfect. You can paddle or swim with ease in the lake. We even managed to row out in our inflatable dinghy. Plenty of fishing done and a few caught. We didn't want to leave.

Ms K,

Well equipped home. Beautiful location. The views of the lakes and Nephin are fantastic.

Mr G,
