Achill Island is the largest island of Ireland, and lies off the west coast, in County Mayo. The island is linked to the mainland by the Michael Davitt Bridge, and has five Blue Flag beaches. A number of activities can also be enjoyed on the island, including surfing, windsurfing, canoeing and kayaking.
The West of Ireland conjures up many images; thatched, whitewashed cottages, a flock of sheep on a narrow road, an emerald green field with a stone wall, or the Atlantic waves crashing into towering cliffs and rocky shores.
Reviews of Wild Atlantic View Cottage
"Rented this cottage for 8 members of my family including children and a pensioner. The large double ground floor bedroom was perfect for the pensioner. Lots of space in the cottage but NO internet/Wifi so only basic TV channels. I believe there has not been internet here for a while because I found an old modem in the airing cupboard with the sim removed. I also feel that internet is needed here for safety reasons because the location is so remote and there is only one bus each day of the island. Achill is a lovely island and great for walking and swimming. I loved the sheep and cattle roaming free. The cottage is really well stoked with linen and kitchen equipment and there are loads of books and family/childrens board games. I you would enjoy peace and quiet and living without the digital world for a while then this is the perfect cottage. Overall we enjoyed our stay and relaxed."
