Self Catering Holiday Homes in Westport, Co. Mayo

Westport, Co. Mayo Westport is situated on an inlet of Clew Bay, in Co. Mayo on the West Coast of Ireland. As a holiday destination Westport has everything, all year round. It was recently voted Ireland’s best loved tourist town. One of the reasons it is so popular is because it has retained its own charm, it is bohemian, local, and vibrant with great cafes, restaurants, local shops, great culture and lots of craft galleries and book shops.

Its location on the Wild Atlantic Way, at Clew Bay with Croagh Patrick just 16km away on the road to Louisburgh and Blue Flag beaches, makes it a desirable destination for walkers, hikers and surfers. Cape Clear can be accessed for a day trip bringing you back in time. The Great Western Greenway starts here and continues on to Achill Island, the 42km trail a joy for walkers and cyclists alike.

Westport House and Gardens are open to the public and is a great day out for the family. There is a great Leisure centre in the town, with a 25 metre swimming pool and kiddie’s pools for that inclement day.
