“The cois Atlantic where we have just stayed for the week was a wonderful house to stay in.”

The views surrounding the property are very pleasant to look at. The property itself is very spacious and had everything we needed. There was a lovely welcome package upon arrival and toiletries to accommodate our stay there. The owners are lovely to talk with and are not far away if you need them for anything.

Netflix is available to watch, there is an xbox to keep the kids entertained and wifi is available. We even saw a herd of deer run past the back of the property, which was amazing to see. The house is about 15 minute drive from Ballina, which is a lovely town to visit and has a nice cinema if the weather is bad. The beach is a 25 minute drive away and is lovely to visit. Overall it is a lovely place to stay and we would recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in the area.

“Have just returned home after spending a week in Cois Atlantic.”

This is an absolutely fantastic property which far exceeded our expectations. We have stayed in many holiday properties over the years from Donegal to Kerry and Cois Atlantic is the best we have ever stayed in by a long way.The property is stunning inside and out. Scrupulously clean inside and out, this property is lovingly cared for by owners Ray and Maeve. There is everything you need to make this home from home. The fridge and cupboards were well stocked. As a welcome pack Ray and Maeve had certainly gone far beyond what we could have expected. The setting was beautiful, quiet & peaceful yet within easy reach of Ballina or Crossmolina. Would definitely recommend and we will certainly be back. Charles & Yvonne Moffett. Co. Armagh.

“My wife and I have stayed at a number of properties throughout England, Scotland and Wales.”

Cois Atlantic is by far the most fantastic property of all. The location was ideal and the standard within was exceptional. There was nothing you needed to make your stay comfortable. Ray and Maeve had gone beyond by ensuring you had every conceivable item you needed. The cleanliness was second to none and the greeting on arrival made you realise that you were going to have a great holiday. The West Atlantic Way was breath-taking and there was plenty of locations to visit. It will be our intention to return in the very near future. Thank you for a wonderful stay & experience.

“Cois Atlantic is an amazing property" it was very well equipped and was very comfortable.”

The owners had thought of everything that we would need. The welcoming package in the kitchen was out of this world! We have never stayed in a property with such a great selection.

- Mr Ward, May 2019
“Cois Atlantic is a great property, with all the comforts of home.”

We stayed over the Christmas holiday. Ray and Maeve made us feel really welcome, the house was decorated for Christmas and they even got some shopping in for us when we arrived. Lovely scenery, we could see deer in the field behind the house. We would definitely return to Cois Atlantic. Many thanks.

- Mr Mcloughlin, December 2018
“Lovely house and location.”

Warm welcome from the owners on arrival and they were extremely helpful with anything we wanted to know. The area was very quiet and peaceful but Ballina was only a few miles away. We would certainly stay there again.

- Miss Dunbar, September 2018
“Everything you could wish for in a holiday home, spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable, every piece of equipment you could possibly need.”

It’s situated in an excellent spot for sightseeing and local amenities. We could not have asked for a better holiday home. Highly recommended for all ages. Linda&Dave Stephenson.

- Mr Stephenson, September 2018
“Excellent home away from home.”

I can not recommend this property high enough, it had by far exceeded all our expectations. Their hospitality is exceptional and they have thought of everything in making our stay as comfortable as possible. Fridge and cupboards were well stocked with treats and basic food supplies, the bathrooms even fully equipped with towels toiletries. An Xbox and smart Tv to keep the teenager amused, DVDs and colouring books for the younger children. The beds and linen are so clean and comfortable. I have never seen a holiday home kept in such pristine condition as this property, both inside and out. A perfect rural base with exceptional views if you wish to explore the west of Ireland. I can honestly say we will return.

“From arrival to departure the house was fantastic.”

Owners provided everything one could need. Area was beautiful and was conveiniant to town for shops etc. Would not hesitate to recommend. Well done.

- Ms Baird, June 2018
“Cois Atlantic was such a wonderful find!”

The house was immaculate, very comfortable and modern, in stunning surroundings, with beautiful views of the Nephrin mountain from the huge well stocked, bright and comfortable country kitchen/living room and patio area. The owners are so kind, friendly and lovely. They went out of their way to make sure that our holiday was special with all the comforts we needed and welcome treats on arrival. There are books, games, and even Netflix - we enjoyed films and card games in the evenings. Our only regret was not being able to stay longer. We felt so rested in such a peaceful homely atmosphere and really didn't want to leave. The location is fantastic too, in a quiet and peaceful setting yetjust a few miles from the nearest town, Crossmolina, where there is everything you need, and Ballina only 5 miles away too. Everyone we met was so friendly. We brought our bikes which we used a lot on the quiet local roads to Killala as well as cycling on the Green Way to Achill island. For those wanting to fish, the nearby Lough Conn is an excellent spot. There are many local walking trails too, with information leaflets in the house. The coastline is spectacular and the historic Ceide Fields neolithic site well worth a visit. All in all, we'd highly recommend this property for couples, families or friends. Many thanks to Ray and Maeve for making our holiday in County Mayo so special.

- Mrs Magee, June 2018
