It was no accident that led us to take our first trip twelve years ago in this wonderful, changeable region of Ireland. The spectacular scenery stretches from high rugged mountains and steep cliffs, with breathtaking sea views, over sandy beaches, to the untouched stretches of moor land. The small quaint harbour town of Westport, with its restaurants and typical public houses, will charm you from your first visit. It is populated with friendly Irish folk who have a taste for a Mediterranean way of life.
