About this property

Spacious 5-bedroom house with sea views for up to 12 guests in beautiful Achill

Discover this welcoming 5-bedroom gem overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in Dooagh village on Achill Island in Mayo. Located only 5km from iconic Keem Bay and 3km from Keel, Teach Cruachán is a former deluxe B&B that offers comfortable accommodation for up to twelve guests.

This tranquil house boasts 2 large family bedrooms upstairs with sea views, each with a king bed and a twin bed (option for an alternative layout of 3 twin beds), and 3 double bedrooms on the ground floor. One has a full bed and sea view, and two have queen beds and share a Jack & Jill shower room. With 6 bathrooms equipped with showers, and TVs and hair dryers in every bedroom, guests will feel right at home.

Enjoy the peaceful seaside surroundings and modern amenities like WiFi, smart TVs, games console, a large semi-professional kitchen, living/dining area with sea view, a washing machine, iron/ironing board, dishwasher, heating, and a cozy snug with TV and multi-fuel stove. Your stay at this wonderful property will be a memorable one. Your experienced hosts live in a separate apartment next door, and will be available to answer any questions you might have.

You’ll be only 60m from the trailhead for the Dooagh National Looped Walk that leads to the famous Deserted Village of Slievemore and the secret beach at Annagh. Dooagh is the home of the highest Atlantic cliffs in Europe, the remains of Ireland’s only basking shark fishery, the hunting grounds for a large resident pod of dolphins (often spotted from the living area and the outdoor terrace) and the infamous Captain Boycott’s residence. It’s simply paradise!

Roisin was an outstanding hostess. Her home was spotless and more than enough room for the eight of us. The ocean view was spectacular!

Das Haus ist riesig und bietet viele Aufenthalts- und Rückzugsräume. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich nur wünschen kann. Wir wurden von Roisin sehr freundlich empfangen, sie hat uns sogar mit Leckereien und frischem Obst verwöhnt und uns viele Tipps für den Aufenthalt gegeben.
