Everything was perfect, I promise you it’s a must stop. Martina and Larry and their most esteemed pet dog, Ted were beyond welcoming! I’ve never felt more welcomed.
The property was beautiful and perfect, we felt like Princess Aurora in her cottage with her fairy godmothers. We will definitely be back 🤎

The staff are lovely and welcoming. The kitchen area, Bathroom and spa area are all well maintained and inviting and there lots of small details around the site that make it feel like a very special place (game of thrones loo 😆)
Sounds like Stephen has plans to make this site even more exciting in the near future.

I liked the Theatre show I went to was enjoyable. Loved the shops around the hotel not too far to walk. Hotel was nice but few things could be updated for price of rooms. Ate in hotel but I would definitely look for other places to eat if I was going back to Castlebar.

Layout of the town is terrible.
Layout of the town is terrible. Very difficult to find things and drive in for someone who is not familiar with it. Restaurants are adequate; a good variety. Mostly need to be there because of services (solicitor, accountant, etc.). My understanding is that the hospital is not very good.

We as a family spent a long weekend in Castlebar.
We as a family spent a long weekend in Castlebar. A car is not required to get around town. There are many lovely cafes for lunch and we had dinner at Pizza Bros which was very reasonably priced and food was delicious. There are many other lovely restaurants to choose from. The Irish Bar looked great for lunch but due to it's popularity we didn't get to try it. Another great pub - John McHales. Went there on Sunday night and they had live music playing - great atmosphere. We found an Escape Room Experience called INSiDE which is about a 15 minute walk from the centre of town - highly recommend it... we really enjoyed it. We also went bowling and then hired a car and went to Westport for a day. We ate at The Towers Bar & Restaurant. Food was amazing.. We drove along the coast to Bertra Beach with amazing scenery along the way. Could have done with a few more days - great weekend

Castlebar is a substantial town, with some good amenities and shopping. It's a good base for exploring Mayo and is reasonably close to Knock, Westport and Killala. Happy to recommend Bistrot 1798 restaurant - we had a lovely meal there. Great ambience and food, and very efficient, pleasant service. Good for a date night.
2 Night stay - We were blown away by this property, this beautiful house is Luxurious, comfortable, and spacious. Our host Mary was welcoming and helpful throughout. This is a beautifully built and furnished Georgian style country house which sits in between Castlebar and Westport Quay and so there is plenty to do in the local area.
Breakfast was freshly cooked to order and delicious with lots of choices.
Superb value for money and I highly recommend if you are travelling to this area.
This was one of the best properties I ever stayed in - the location is only a short drive from Castlebar and is located in a really quiet countryside, the only noise you hear is the beautiful birds singing in the morning - a delight! I loved everything about it, the bedroom was huge and well kitted out. I loved the fact that I could drive right up to the door. Maedbh was so helpful and accommodating - a great host! I cannot wait until my next stay 😀
Just stayed at Breaffy House Hotel for the 4th time since 2020. A great base for exploring Mayo and Galway. Staff are fantastic, we've met Mairead, Joanna and Tony over the years. Sign of a good hotel when they retain such lovely staff. Mairead looked after us in Healy Macs every night this stay. Went above and beyond. Nothing a bother. So friendly. Pool facilities great for the kids. Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room for the adults. A great hotel all round.
The location was fantastic. A nice walk from Castlebar train station was very easily done in about twenty minutes (I was walking very slowly). The hosts were extremely friendly. The place is so homely and peaceful, a very gentle atmosphere overall hangs in the air. Would definitely return to the next time I’m in Castlebar and would definitely recommend to anyone. The value for money/comfort combination is just perfect.
Majella is such a kind and welcoming lady. She went over and beyond to make our stay cozy, comfortable and met all our expectations. House is exceptionally clean with everything you need. Plenty room for 2+2. Easy access to Castlebar, Westport and other places.
We will be definitely coming back in few months. .
Thank you for your hospitality Majella. We loved our stay x
This hotel was conveniently located near several great shops and restaurants in Castlebar. The room, while relatively basic, suited my needs for the two days I stayed there. I believe I overhead that the hotel would house several people from Ukraine the following week, so I appreciate that role of serving people who need a soft place to land during a very difficult time.
Des and Oonagh were fantastic, knowledgeable hosts. We opted for scrambled eggs, bacon and toast for breakfast. We requested the eggs be well done, but not browned. Eggs were light and fluffy, breakfast was delicious! Des recommended going to Castlebar for dinner and music. We had a fun night in town and then were off to the Museum of Country Life which was a must see.
Beautiful house and in a peaceful area. Very close to castlebar and westport. Nicola was a brilliant host and made us feel welcome. We had an amazing time. Rooms are very spacious, all amenities in kitchen and rooms. Ample space to park cars and walk outside the property!
Location was good - close to Castlebar and Westport.
Beautiful house and garden. Felt safe and secure.
Bathroom had jacuzzi bath - main reason for booking - nice treat!
Breakfast very good and carefully prepared and served, given Covid restrictions.
I loved the convenient location near many attractions in Castlebar. The staff were friendly and were more than willing to let me leave my bags for bit before and after my stay (which was much appreciated for my solo travel on foot).
Wonderful hosts, very clean, quiet place, close to Castlebar. This is the third time we have rented a cottage. Very pleased with the attention and service! We wish Your prosperity! We recommend.
The staff are excellent. Super friendly and helpful. Room was super clean and comfortable, as was the hotel. Plenty of parking which was great. Overall excellent experience
