Went with a group of 7 ladies ranging from experienced riders to riders with no expeirience. Vicky was amazing carefully selected horses to suit each ladies comfort level. Absolutely fab trek on the beach, definitely a top expeirience in Westport with croagh patrick in the back drop, scenery is breathtaking! Vicky and her leads brought a bit of craic to the hour long trek, great value for money and a truly memorable experience

An excellent living history,our guide Tom was brought up in the house that is the corner stone of this family run museum.He explains the history of Co Mayo in a clear and balanced way,so for a novice or a history buff there is plenty to learn from his story. We had been intending to visit the museum for a longtime as we are regular visitors to Co Mayo.The changes to Irish family life in just 2-3 generations are nothing short of remarkable. Happy to recommend this small museum, for older people it is a reminder, for the young it is an eye opener. Tom and Catherine were excellent and welcoming hosts, it was a great chat with tea and biscuits.

Wonderful day cycling from Achill back to Westport. Love the way the Greenway is close to the road in places although protected or segregated, giving you a picture of the vehicle traffic as you're whistling to yourself, gliding along past picture perfect views. The coastline, hillscape, terrain are all stunning, also nice to see the odd bit of local farm activity along the cycle path. At one point a ram literally said hello to us from high up on a rock (that's what we told ourselves anyway!). Stopped in Mulranny and Newport, both perfect stop offs for bit of food or refreshment, and great views of the coastline or river. We brought two kids of 9 years old and the 42km was just about manageable for them, it's mostly flat anyway. But there were plenty of even younger children we passed along the way too. An unforgettable day's cycling. Highly recommended.
