17th Century Granary

Imagine arriving down a secluded country lane to a beautifully restored 1670 granary, where centuries of history meet quiet comfort. The Granary at Newbrook House is a refined two bedroom retreat set in the peaceful countryside of County Mayo, between the towns of Claremorris and Ballinrobe and thirty minutes from Knock Shrine, offering the rare combination of genuine seclusion and easy access to the very best of Ireland’s wild west.
Inside, you’ll find two bedrooms, one bathroom, a full kitchen, and a dining room centred on a solid teak table made for long, lingering meals. The stunning living room is warmed by a wood-burning fireplace, and the principal bedroom is anchored by a magnificent hand-carved super king bed, while antiques, original artwork, and the glow of the fire give every room a sense of warmth and history. Days here are made for slow mornings with coffee, long walks down country lanes, and evenings spent unwinding by the fire.
When you’re ready to explore, the legendary Ashford Castle, the dramatic Wild Atlantic Way coastline, and the revered pilgrimage site of Knock Shrine are all within easy reach, along with the lakes, golf courses, heritage abbeys, and welcoming villages that make this corner of Mayo so special. For pilgrims, the season at Knock runs each year until the second Sunday of October, and many guests find that a quiet evening by the fire is the perfect end to a day at the Shrine. The Granary is an unhurried, elegant base for travellers who want to slow down and experience the real Ireland.
