Mid week break

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Cartron cottage. We got the warmest Irish welcome from the lovely Kathleen, complete with the best home made brown bread and marmalade. The cottage was spotlessly clean and it contains everything you could possibly require. Thank you Kathleen so much for everything.

Delightful Stay

We had a lovely time at Cartron Cottage. Kathleen could not have been more welcoming. She even came to get us when we got lost on our way. She had left a bottle of wine to help us settle in and there was home-made bread and marmalade for breakfast. Kathleen had thought of everything to make our stay perfect.The cottage is in a great location - 20 minutes to Westport and Castlebar and with easy links to Knock Airport, Sligo, Galway and Connemara, and yet in a very tranquil setting.Thoroughly recommended.
