Excellent stay! We had a great stay at Kevins House. The property was clean, comfortable and has all the amenities you need for a great holiday. Great base to explore Achill. Would highly recommend.

Colette

Just like to say my family and I really enjoyed our stay and thank you. We would love to stay again in the future. The house was amazing and so was the location. The weather was not great but the house was so comfortable to retreat back to.

Maureen

We really enjoyed our third holiday in Kevin's house. It is spacious, very comfortable and beautifully presented so we could completely relax for the week and enjoy the beautiful coastal walks, nearby beaches and explore the beauty of Achill.

Katherine

Had a great holiday in Kevins house. We were lucky with the fantastic weather. Would definitely stay here again. The Valley House was very near so can walk there for a meal or a pint in the bar. The scenery was spectacular.

Fabulous house in a stunning location! Plenty of room to spread out and relax. House is well stocked with all you need to make it a home from home! Kevin is extremely helpful and courteous. Will definitely be returning for another stay.

Jacqueline

Our family all got together and stayed in Kevins wonderful house. Theres everything you need. Kevin is on call if you need him. Perfect location on the Island. Well definitely go back.

Comfortable. Every possible household amenity you could want available. Nothing spared to make your stay feel like home from home. Such a pity they can't organise the weather as well. Power went off, briefly, on our first night & they contacted us straight away to check OK. 200 for the personal touch !

Sandra

We Ioved our week at Kevins beautiful house. Incredibly spacious, and, as we were in the main a slightly older family group, having a bathroom each was a real bonus. Kevin was an amazing host who responded immediately to any queries or minor issues we had. We spent the week walking & swimming and catching up with family over delicious food and a few drinks !! Thank you Kevin for a fantastic stay

Kevin's House was a very spacious and comfortable holiday home with lovely views. It had everything we needed and it was just a short walk to the sea and an even shorter walk to the track through the lovely quiet and beautiful Irish boglands. Great for walking the dog. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Kevins house was beyond amazing, we could not have had a better holiday!

Beautiful house with an amazing view. Met all our needs with much needed space outdoors for the kids. We would love to come back. Thanks from us all

Erikah

We recently had our first family holiday since covid. Siblings from Ireland, America and Australia came together in Kevins house and couldnt have asked for a better place to stay. The view was outstanding and facilities awesome. Kitchen was super. Thanks for making our holiday a memory to treasure.

Adrian

In a very stormy week, this house was all you would want, mainly being always warm! Some great lanes around the house for walking the dog and the scenery of course is terrific. We intend to return.

Maureen

We had a lovely stay in Kevin's beautiful house. It was so comfortable and spacious and great attention to detail in providing everything needed for a relaxing holiday. The location was beautiful with lovely walks and scenery nearby.

This house was perfect for us and our dog, if a little large for just the two of us. Wonderfully situated to explore Achill and close to beaches for dog walks. Incredibly well equipped, great instructions and an attentative host available on the phone. We really enjoyed our week and will be back in the future. Thanks Kevin.

Joanne

Really lovely house in gorgeous location. The owner was very friendly and helpful. We felt that the listing description could have been a little more accurate though as there was no mention of the quite deep ditch running the whole length of the one side of the garden which was an issue for our very small dog and a hazzard for young children. There was also no mention of excessive energy usage or rubbish left being charged for although this wasn't a problem for us. We were also surprised to read on arrival that dogs had to be kept in the utility room overnight or in crates not detailed before hand but we had a crate anyway. Having said that we really enjoyed our stay and would rebook the same house if we stayed in that area again

Eimear

Kevin's house was the perfect property for our holiday with extended family. Very spacious, a well equipped kitchen and a safe enclosed garden for the small ones. Located in a lovely scenic are close to quiet beaches. The owner was available by phone to answer any questions that arose throughout our stay and was very helpful. We will be back!

Amanda

This house is absolutely beautiful. There is not a point I could take from it. Spotless, lovely area and Kevin is lovely to deal with. Got list finding house , our fault, and Kevin was at the end of the phone to help us. House is spacious, comfortable and a lovely quiet area. We will be back again. Don't forget to try the Diner takeaway before you leave.

Excellent holiday. Lovely home from home. Was perfect for our extended family of 10 6 adults including grandparents, 4 kids and one cute dog. Would recommend this house and destination for a break from routine.

As a large family Kevin's house was perfect in every way, the cleanliness was 1010, everything we needed was there down to washing powder and dishwasher tablets, kevin should be so proud of himself with such a beautiful home to offer to people. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend this home in achill. Thanks kevin and family

The house was fabulous with every mod con you could mention. The bedrooms were spacious very clean and the beds were very comfortable. We thoroughly recommend it.

This was our second time to stay in Kevins House. That says it all!

The house was fantastic and achill Island was beautiful!

Anne ie

House was perfect we had a wonderful stay. Well presented and spotless would recommend this house

Roisin

We had an amazing stay at Kevin's House, Achill Island. Kevin and his parents who look after the house were lovely friendly helpful people. Nothing was too much trouble. We had booked for the 10th October until the 18th and my partner ended up with appendicitis, I rang Kevin to see if we could move dates instead of cancel and he was very understanding. We got to Achill Island on the 14th and were to stay one week, but we loved it that much and thankfully the availability was there we were able to extend our stay! The house is beautiful, very well kept and spotless. It is also fully equipped with all the appliances and facilities you need while on holiday. There is plenty of space for everyone and beautiful views out the back. Gorgeous place! There is numerous beaches within a short drive, Keel Beach is a beautiful big beach for a good walk and there is a childs play park beside it. My four year old Daughter loved it. Keen bay has some views on the way down to it, definitely worth a visit. We arrived just before the restrictions hit so everything was closed so we never got to any pubs or restaurants but we look forward to trying these on our next stay at Kevin's House. We cant wait to come back!!

Our entire party of 10 had a fantastic holiday. The weather was beautiful so the mountain climbers could climb while the rest of us enjoyed the various beaches. I couldnt say a negative thing about the house. It was perfect. We shall return!!

Richard

The house is huge and is in a great location to explore Achill. The directions were spot on, the location is peaceful and there is a lovely 10 minute walk to the beach. Kevin was very helpful and friendly and keen to sort out any issues quickly. The dishwasher and washing machine and drier were a huge plus and the fire with turf supplied was brilliant for a very wet and windy summer break! If I can give some constructive feedback I would say that for a party of 11 there isnt nearly enough cutlery or crockery and the pots and pans were not really up to standard and really need to be replaced. Finally the large upstairs bedroom has no blinds on the velux windows which is difficult with young kids

Clidhna

The house is fabulous and reasonably priced. There was so much space for 2 families it never felt cramped. The only slight issue we had was that there weren't enough kitchen utensils. But that was a such a small issue in a great house with a great garden. I would go again!
