Guests say

Kilkeeran Lodge is highly praised for its cleanliness, stunning location, and overall comfort. Guests appreciate the attention to detail and the property's suitability for families and groups. The tranquil lakeside setting and wildlife add to the charm, although some guests suggest improvements in kitchen equipment and furnishing for enhanced comfort.

Guests consistently note the property's immaculate cleanliness, with one review highlighting it as 'immaculately clean'. This suggests a very high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.

The location is frequently described as beautiful and peaceful, with amazing views and a lakeside setting that contributes to a tranquil experience. It is also deemed perfect for exploring the surrounding areas.

The lodge is generally considered comfortable, with special mentions of good sleep quality and a warm atmosphere. However, some guests felt the furnishing was sparse, which slightly impacts the comfort score.

While the property is well-equipped for most, there are comments about the lack of large pans and sufficient cookware for larger groups. The suggestion of adding a light in the garage also indicates room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.

The hosts are commended for their helpfulness and attention to detail, with one review mentioning additional logs and fire starters left for guests. While this indicates thoughtfulness, it is important to note that such gestures are not guaranteed.

About this property

Ballinrobe 6.2 miles. Tucked away on the outskirts of Ballinrobe in Partry, County Mayo is this contemporary, detached cottage of Kilkeeran Lodge. This impressive abode is in a tranquil position surrounded by countryside and fishing lakes, providing a family or group of 10 spacious living areas, enclosed gardens, and off-road parking. Inside, you'll find a large kitchen/diner where the group's chef can prepare their favourite meals, with an electric double oven and hob, microwave, and dishwasher. The breakfast bar for four and the dining table for six ensure there's space for everyone to savour evening meals, all by the warmth of woodburning stove. Moving through the property, the sitting room is ideal for hosting movie nights with a large, wall-mounted TV, sleek corner sofa to sink into, and an electric fire for added ambience. Just next to the kitchen/diner is a handy utility with washer and dryer, whilst the patio door leads out to your private, enclosed lawned gardens with plenty of space for the little ones to play! Completing the ground floor, you'll find a bathroom, cloakroom, two twin bedrooms, and a double with en-suite shower room; all beautifully appointed with contemporary furnishings, and ideal for those with limited mobility. Upstairs, two more double bedrooms await, one with a sitting area, walk-in wardrobe, and en-suite shower room, and the other with access to the family, Jack-and-Jill bathroom. A lovely base for those who prefer rural surroundings, Kilkeerin is a stone's throw away from Lough Carra for gorgeous walks, trout fishing, and Moore Hall Forest Recreation Area, as well as Lough Mask for Tourmakeady Waterfall and plenty of picnic spots. Take a short drive to the town of Ballinrobe to dine at the The Bowers Bar and Restaurant, play a game or two at Ballinrobe Golf Club, and peaceful walking trails in The Bowers Walk. You'll find plenty to see in the coastal town of Westport, such as the Georgian estate of Westport House with a Pirate Adventure Park, the Gabhlán nature reserve, and be sure to stop for a drink at the classic Irish pub. Continue your journey north for the sprawling, spectacular National Park of Wild Nephin, whilst south of the cottage will bring you to the city of Galway. Galway Cathedral, City Museum, the National Aquarium of Ireland, and even ferry tours to the Aran Island are just some of the attractions on offer. Secure your stay at

  • Declan

    Beautiful house, plenty of space, modern and best of all, was exactly as was advertised on webpage. Would definitely go back. Pool table, dart board in garage a nice extra touch. Maybe put a light in garage would be a suggestion, but overall, it was perfect. Thanks for a great holiday.

  • Mary

    The leg of the bed (it's curved) right inside the door of the twin-bedded room is positioned rather precariously, I tripped over it and fell forward, causing bruising to a toe.

  • Kathleen

    Could be an amazing house with a bit of TLC and we felt communication could be improved, maybe an information pack about bin collection, hot water etc would be helpful. In saying all this we still had a brilliant time away.
