Knock is a village in
County Mayo, known for its world-famous Knock Shrine, which
attracts over half-a-million pilgrims each year. To become one of
the many visitors to this religious landmark, take a look through
our Knock self-catering accommodation today.
Knock Shrine is a fascinating building which is considered to be
one of Europe's major Catholic Marian shrines, so much so that
in 1979, Pope John Paul II paid a special visit to commemorate its
anniversary. The village itself is an excellent base for touring
County Mayo - a region abounding in undulating countryside,
well-stocked fishing loughs and opportunities to spot some stunning
wildlife. For a more relaxing holiday in Knock, head to one of the
several well-appointed towns within close proximity; Claremorris,
Ballyhaunis and Castlebar form a charming and shop-filled triangle
around the village of Knock, giving you plenty of opportunity to
spend those Euros.
