Creggaree House (II13818), Cong, Co. Mayo

Located in a landscaped area of County Mayo, this is the ideal holiday home for those seeking to explore and enjoy outdoor pursuits with the whole family. Take advantage of the free kayaks and wetsuits and spend fun-filled afternoons moseying along the canal while the keen anglers do a spot of fishing. Once tummies are rumbling, head down to the fairytale village of Cong (400 metres away) and settle in at the local watering hole for hearty dishes of local grub. A wealth of historic properties are nearby, too, including Ashford Castle, Cong Abbey and Ballykine Castle, all within 3.5 miles of the cottage. After venturing through the gates and up the drive, enter the property to find a comfortable cottage with two lounges and plenty of space for social gatherings. The first lounge houses a TV, a cosy fireplace and deep furniture for lazy evenings. The second is equally as cosy yet sits adjacent to the kitchen to keep the head chef company. The kitchen itself is a pleasure to cook in and is well equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a separate utility room for washing and drying clothes. The dining room seats six and is perfect for grand mealtime gatherings. There is also a playroom for the younger guests and a downstairs WC. Upstairs, there are five bedrooms: four doubles and a twin room. One of the doubles boasts an en-suite bathroom with a handheld shower head, while the other three doubles host en-suite shower rooms. The twin also has an en-suite shower room. Stepping outside, you will find a fully enclosed garden for little ones to run about in, while garden furniture provides a lovely space to sit and relax after long days. You could even fire up the BBQ for an al fresco treat.
