It's the very essence of the beauty of IrelandAn amazingly beautiful place. And the very best of it will not be seen from a tour bus window..
After thirteen visits to Ireland, and eleven extended stays in Westport town - the jewel of Co Mayo - we know our way to the best of the "off-the-beaten-path" pubs, cafes, historical sites, and heart-stopping views in Co Galway and Co Mayo. And we know these only through the local friends we've been so fortunate to have made in the many months we've spent in the area. Wander your way around this site. We want to share our love and enthusiasm for this remarkable place. |
