Vacation rentals with lake access in Lough Mask

We had a family break March 2025. 12 family members, the accommodation was perfect for us. Great kitchen/dining room for socialising/eating. Never felt on top of each other 6 of the bedrooms had en-suite shower room and there was also a downstairs cloakroom off of the main hall. All of the 5 double bedrooms downstairs had en-suites and one of the double bedrooms upstairs. We all loved coming back 'home' after a day out. Great outside facilities, plently of logs for the sauna, hot tub. Excvellent views. Beautiful stary skies on clear nights with zero light polution! Will be staying again, already planning our 2026 stay! Marian was extremely responsive both before and duting our stay, as was the local caretaker who responded almost immediatley to a maintenance request we had during our stay

I absolutely cannot praise this cottage or this host enough. Set in a secluded country location with scenic views whilst also being little more than 10 minutes drive from the nearby large town, the cottage itself is deceptively spacious, well-appointed and spotlessly clean. Andrea is a warm friendly host, quick to reply to messages. The unexpected extras that were provided brought a smile to the face of a weary traveller. Overall: above excellent

Richard's bus is absolutely amazing, we had a brilliant time. It is so unique and peaceful :)

We had a fantastic family holiday in Doohoma . The house had everything we needed for a large family gathering ( 11 and a baby) and was very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The house was very well equipped with cooking utensils and essential kitchen supplies. It was lovely to have the warm fire in the cold evenings. The surrounding area is wonderful, such a beautiful part of Mayo. There are gorgeous beaches and cliff walks within 30 minutes drive. The beach at Doohoma Head is a very short drive or a leisurely walk away and stunning . There is also a golf course and football pitch beside it. We walked to both the Searod Inn and the Tra Bui which are both highly recommended. The pool table in the Sea Rod was a great hit with the young ones. We also had a lovely meal in the Sea Rod. Keith was attentive during our stay and check-in was very easy with the key safe. Would love to return . Thank you Owen and Keith.

What a lovely home, nestled far away to get some peace but close enough to great restaurants and attractions. A lovely space for a group or family to enjoy time in the Irish countryside. Appreciated the welcome pack and website with recommendations and instructions. Great communication with our host throughout our stay, which made this a delightful experience.

Absolutely gorgeous house and grounds, like something from a postcard. Everything you could need was in the house. House is bright and spotlessly clean. Great location. Handy adventure centre in the hotel a five minute walk from the house. Margaret is a fantastic host who made sure we had a great trip. Thank you Margaret. The Mancunian girls will come again!

We had a short stay in the very beautiful accommodation offered by Aidan and Ciara. The accommodation is well placed to discover the surroundings and we feel that Aidan and Ciara do everything to make your stay go smoothly. Thanks to them!

Good place of stay away from the busy city life. Lovely place of entertainment and the kids and grownups enjoyed playing there. Enough rooms to stay and lots of en-suite. Good number of towels and toiletries with extra stock if needed. Loved the stay and there were delicious scones waiting for us in the kitchen which we enjoyed and thank you for everything.

We had a fantastic 2 night stay in Isobel’s 2 bedroom apartment (1 double with ensuite & 1 twin with a full bathroom next to it). The apartment was spotless and we appreciated the little extras which were left by Isobel including bread milk & chocolate bars. Isobel’s welcome on arrival and her recommendations for food locations were very good and she also explained the lovely short-cut to town through Westport House which was very helpful. Thanks very much Isobel, we had a very memorable time in Westport and it’s also well located to visit other lovely places including Mulranny & Achill so we hope to go back to stay there again soon.

Great place to stay in a beautiful location with an excellent host.

We had an amazing stay! The space was so charming and beautifully decorated. The host was super welcoming. We would absolutely stay here again!

Absolutely love this place. A very cool, quirky apartment. Comfortable and clean. Nice peaceful surrounding. Galway city is around 20 minutes away, nice drive too. I found the host really helpful, clear and simple instructions to check in. Would highly recommend. I'd definitely stay here again! ♡

I would highly recommend Carmel's house.Very clean and cosy with beautiful view on ocean. We had great time.Carmel is very friendly. Thank you Beata &Alan

Our stay with Regina was wonderful it's a great little get away; nice, peaceful, relaxing and great views all around. Regina was the perfect host greeting us at the door making us feel very welcomed, giving us tips on what to do in the local area and leaving us some of her signature scones to enjoy. I would highly recommend staying with Regina.

Beautiful view from inside the unit. A lot of care taken for the comfort of guests and small touches well appreciated. Perfect location to explore Galway and Connemara!

A great place, local to all we required. Lovely clean beds, bathroom etc.

We had most amazing days at the cottage. The location is stunning with great access to the pier and activities. The cottage the spacious and has everything one needs including for a family like us. Would definitely come again and highly recommend! Thanks Deirdre !

The landlords were always friendly, helpful and quick to reach. Fantastic setting directly at the lake. The furnishings are functional, the furnishings of the kitchen leave nothing to be desired. We felt right at home. I highly recommend it!

Place was very comfortable and nice and quite. John is responsive and friendly. Recommended!

What a charming place! We loved staying here.

The house is lovely, and the setting is great. One house up from Keel beach, with its labyrinth and waterfall and beautiful low tide walks. Sit in the living room and watch the sheep eat grass and the clouds roll in over the bay. Pretty well equipped kitchen and the hosts offered to loan us anything else we might need to cook full meals, which we did. Bed was really comfortable and pretty quiet at night. Maybe just cuz the local kids are home from college this week, there were loud vehicles driving on the beach one night. Otherwise, dark and peaceful. Super friendly and helpful hosts, would stay here again.

The photos do not do this location justice. It’s magical and a perfect place to relax. The house is super comfortable, clean and warm. Great host too!

Pat has given us the warmest welcome we have ever got at an airbnb. He is just a terrific host. The cottage is lovely, spacious and well-equipped. Great to have 2 bathrooms. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal. We loved the fire in the dining room and living room and enjoyed playing boardgames with the fire on, on a rainy day. Pat's dog, Lily and the neighbour dog, Hunter are both a delight. Connemara is a beautiful part of Ireland with beautiful scenery and wonderfully warm people. A week is not enough to see everything. We managed to get to the national park, Clifden, Roundstone and its beaches, Lennaun, the Killary fjord and the famine walk, as well as nearby Loch Corrib and the castle. Some of these destinations are about 1 hour away but you drive through beautiful scenery. Galway is only half an hour away and is a buzzing, vibrant city. All in all, we had a great time and would like to come back.

Such a lovely cottage and beautiful location. Everything was perfect during our stay. Micheál was a wonderful host, very friendly, responsive and accommodating. Would definitely recommend!
