THE THATCHED COTTAGE, pet friendly in Drummin, County Mayo

This thatched, pet friendly cottage sleeps 5 people in the village of Drummin near to Westport and close to Clare Island in County Mayo, Ireland. Please note that in July and August this property only accepts 7 night bookings.

The Thatched Cottage dates back over 200 years and provides compact, unfussy but comfortable accommodation. This traditional style Irish cottage is situated on the outskirts of the rural hamlet of Drummin just 10 miles from Westport in County Mayo. The accommodation has a number of charmingly quirky features including sloping floors, low doorframes and a traditional Irish fireplace with wood burner. The Thatched Cottage has an open plan living area, family bedroom and one smaller bedroom and a lawned garden with seating where you can relax and enjoy beautiful views of the nearby mountains.

Shop & pub 5 mins walk. Please note that in July and August this property only accepts 7 night bookings.

Region: 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.

Town: Winding leafy lanes, honeysuckle and wild roses in season, hilly areas and incredible views characterise the rural village of Drummin 10 miles south of Westport in County Mayo. Take a walk to the top of the hills to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views across Clew Bay to Clare Island, once the stronghold of Gráinne Uaile, the Pirate Queen. There are many fascinating and beautiful places to visit in this part of Ireland. Go fishing in the rivers such as the Erriff River around eight miles away, and the Delphi River in the Doolough Valley, about six miles away. The lively town of Westport nearby is proud of its rich Irish heritage and offers an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, pubs and traditional music. If you love the outdoors, head for nearby Croagh Patrick and its bracing hikes and spectacular views. County Galway is just over 30 minute's drive away to the south, and offers a wonderful day out, with glorious coastal scenery and the world-famous Connemara National Park.

The Thatched Cottage

Our hostess, Elizabeth, was very helpful and attentive, the cottage clean and cozy with a great turf fire to greet us. Bed in the larger room was very comfortable. However the smaller room is suitable only for 1 and then just wall hooks, no room for storage. No problem for us as a couple. Shower is smaall but clean. Tiny kitchen work surface persuaded us to eat out but Westport is only 20 minutes. Great scenic location.

Lovely stay in Drummin

We had a most enjoyable stay in the thatched cottage in Drummin. The cottage is quaint and comfortable. It was a haven of coolness for us during the recent heat wave. The surrounding countryside is picturesque and beautiful. Stunning views of the nearby mountains. Lovely country sounds of sheep and lambs calling to each other - loved it!

Séjour enchanté dans cette jolie chaumière avec vue sur le Croagh Patrick (que nous avons escaladé, sous le soleil), sans oublier la pause, au retour, au pub le Campbells. Belle découverte de Westport et de renseignements fournis à l’office du tourisme par un charmant monsieur. Belle journée aussi à Clare Island, toujours avec du soleil. Merci aussi à Elizabeth et Patrick pour leur accueil. En attendant notre 7e séjour. Anne & Jean
