What a fun, quirky, lovely little spot on the bay! We loved the character and location. The fishing town was adorable and the characters we met were even more adorable! Thank you for hosting such a unique gem on the Emerald Aisle!

Cozy and Clean spot in adorable town of Carrigaholt

We loved our stay in Carrigaholt, owner of Morriseys bar was so helpful, had delicious dinner and drinks at The Long Dock and so enjoyed our morning coffee at the Baryard Coffee trailer a block from us. It was a highlight of our vacation!

Quiet spot (especially out of season)

Small comfortable property. Close to an excellent pub (Keane's) and an equally excellent restaurant (Long Dock) and a very handy take away. The hosts are on hand and quite happybto show youbaround a few pints of Guinness. Keep in mind there is only very simple kitchen facilities but you're on holiday. Eat out!
