Spacious shore-side bungalow in an exclusive and historic location

This is a beautifully located bungalow situated on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. This spacious property consists of 3 double bedrooms, 2 large reception rooms, a kitchen, a modern fitted bathroom and an additional shower room. The master bedroom and front living room overlook the ocean and the rear of the property has open rural views stretching to the mountains and the nearby Rockfleet, or Carrickahowley, Castle. A few minutes’ walk along the sea front will take you to this 16th century castle, which was once the home of the Irish pirate queen, Grace O’Malley, or Granuaile. Also within easy walking distance along the sea front is Roigh Pier with a small harbour of local fishing boats. Fishing and sight-seeing trips can be arranged from here. The immediate area provides excellent walking opportunities, including the Furnace lakes, Shramore and Letterkeen forest and the Nephin mountain range. Both stylish and cosy, this bungalow is perfect for couples, families and groups.

I've stayed here twice with family and this house already feels like home. The view out of the front is Clew Bay and the view out the back is a sheep pasture, which is especially delightful during lambing season. When night falls we read stories by the fire. What could be better?

We had a lovely stay at the house in Rockfleet. The location is really the star attraction, so peaceful and beautiful. The house is clean and tidy with a well equipped kitchen. Fantastic walks all around the area, including right from the door of the house. Located on a very quiet road with a small pier a short walk from the house and the beautiful castle right next door.

Perfect location

The property provided us with everything we needed. While there may have been small things that would have improved our stay further we were perfectly comfortable and the location was wonderful, whatever the weather. It was also well situated to explore every corner of Co Mayo, everything being within an hour or so drive

Wonderful peaceful retreat

Ivory’s house is a perfect peaceful hideaway with fantastic views! The property is fenced all the way around except for the driveway which has a cattle grate making it a very safe place for my dog to run free without worry. From beautiful tidal walks to enjoying sitting in the warm sunporch, we had a lovely stay! Hoping to come again. Highly recommend.

Our grandparents grew up in the area and it was really good to stay where they breathed the same aur right there on Clew Bay. We even heard that our ancestors once owned the property where the house is. We really enjoyed it and hope to be back soon.

It is spacious and has a great view and comfortable beds. But it is tired, dated and in need of a good spring clean. Never-the-less we enjoyed our trip once we got the new internet number and hot water arranged. Devins i good place to eat.

Family Visit

The setting and location can not be beaten, The facillities were also very good. Theres plenty of space and you'll find everything you could want, including two comfortable and spacious lounges both with smart TV's including Netflix, Apple etc. There is a downside in that the whole property is looking a bit tired and is in need of some TLC. Also it really needs a deep clean and dusting. With a bit of time and money spent, this could easily be an outstanding 5 star holiday let.

Great location

The house was clean and had all the comforts of home, pleasant surprise having bread milk and butter there when we arrived. Plenty of walks to do around the area, walking loops, kayaking, surfing in Achill about 30mins away. Next large supermarket was in Castlebar, also about 30mins drive. Centra in Newport does have all the basics though, and Nevins is well worth a visit.

Ivor’s place is great. Pictures don’t do it justice…

Just stayed at Ivor‘s house on the shores of Clew Bay and it was brilliant. The photos in the listing don’t really do it justice as the space available to you is huge. All the facilities are spot-on. There were a few goodies for us in the fridge when we arrived and they even put up a Xmas tree as we were there for Xmas. Communication was great. The surrounding area is beautiful. Lots of history and lots of places to go walking, lots of history. Highly recommended.Suits family’s, and those with kids too… Thanks Ivor.
