    “Lovely private home for a holiday.”

    Bohan's Barn is a lovely country home for a week's stay County Mayo. Secluded location in a beautiful area. Clean and comfortable. Nice location for exploring the area. Groceries and services nearby. Very dog friendly but note that stairs to second floor are not carpeted so a bit slippery and steep for larger or older dogs. Host Gillian left some lovely local products (sausage, bread, boxy) for our arrival. Great stay!
