Its a wonderful location in Westport town perfect location for touring the west coast of Ireland. Close to all amenities, horse riding, the beach, golf courses, scenic drives, water sports etc.
You can stroll to local shops, restaurants, pubs. Westport is a bustling town, largish by local standards, yet countryside can be seen at the end of all its streets. The town is one of the few planned settlements in Ireland, built in 1780 for Peter Browne, second Earl of Altamont, as an adjunct to Westport House.
A bit about the house:
The Select Vestry built the house in 1820 for the Minister of The Presbyterian Church. The Church, although now gone, was originally beside 'The Manse', the name referred to as the minister's house.The charm of the building remains in it's exposed oak beams, its 24' thick walls and as a result the recessed doorways.
The house stands on approximately one acre of grounds beside the Carrowbeg River, which runs along the side of the property. Each evening the river wall provides a sheltered resting place for a flock of wild ducks and early each morning a heron can be seen stalking his breakfast near the bridge arches. At dusk each evening a flock of pepistrelle bats feed over the river.
