"We had a fantastic holiday at Bohans Barn."
Everything there for you to cook, play, read, work, clean. The kids and dogs absolutly loved the space to run around and explore. The horses are so friendly and we even got to spot hares and deer in the field in the evening. Beautiful beaches, cliffs, walks and more all located within a short drive. Shop 5 mins drive. Gillian and family were so friendly and helpful. We hope to deffinatly return in the future. Thank you for a lovely Easter experience.

"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!

"I couldn't recommend this place enough."
My wife and I had an amazing two weeks at this beautifully converted barn. Everything is well thought out from the decor down to the cutlery and glasses. Kitchen has everything you could need for cosy dinners infront of the fire. With wildlife all around in abundance relaxation is mandatory. Gillian couldn't have been nicer with fresh bread and jam made for us worthy of any local baker. Great location. We can't wait to go back.

"Bohan's Barn was a wonderful holiday cottage and a well located base to explore County Mayo."
It is set in the most tranquil and beautiful rural location, but bustling towns and miles of stunning empty beaches are all within easy distance. There is also really well stocked shop a very short drive away so you wouldn't have to venture far if it you didn't want to. My dog loved exploring all the space in the garden and meeting the horses next door. The property was spacious and comfortable with everything you could need and beautifully decorated - I feel like the pictures don't do it justice. I particularly loved curling up in front of the log-burning stove in the evening and enjoying the well-stocked bookshelves. Everything worked great too - heating was easy to work, lots of hot water, fast internet and a great TV. Gillian was a wonderful host, helping us make the most of the local area and providing a lovely welcome pack - what a treat to be gifted freshly baked bread still warm from the oven! I will remember my holiday here very fondly and would happily recommend it to everyone!

"We just spent four glorious days in beautiful North Mayo based at Bohan's Barn."
What a little gem of a house; cosy, comfortable, located just a short drive from glorious unspoilt beaches, the bustling town of Ballina and the stunning mountainous landscape wrapped around us. We had everything we needed in the house for a family of six plus our dog. The house is safely located down a meandering lane, well away from the road which meant a lot with our youngest child with a learning difficulty and our dog of course. Gillian, the owner could not have been more helpful and welcoming. She greeted us with a big bag of goodies for our breakfast the next day and a freshly baked loaf of brown bread. Gillian guided us in where to visit on our short stay and she gaged our interests 100%. We will defiantly return for another stay at Bohan's Barn, only this time we will stay longer. xo

"We had a fabulous stay at Bohans Barn."
Kids really enjoyed the open space and the horse swing especially. They loved feeding the horses beside us some apples aswell. The house itself was perfect. We had kindly been left a lovely welcome package which we saved for breakfast the next morning, although the warm homemade wheaten bread left for us didn’t make it til then, it was too good! the kids enjoyed playing hide and seek and even read some of the books that are there. It had everything you need and more. Very comfortable beds and so peaceful. Not too far from civilisation which is good if you need to nip out to the shop. All in all we could not fault this place and highly recommend it. Just what we needed. Thank you so much.

"Bohans Barn is a hidden gem."
The house is comfortable and spacious and has everything you would need. It is situated down a small lane and has no passing traffic at all. This makes it so peaceful and quiet. On arrival Gillian had left a breakfast package for us which was so thoughtful. Gillian was so friendly and chatted to us about the local area and places she thought we may like to visit. We had 2 teenagers with us and the house was spacious enough to allow everyone to have their own room and space. We would definitely go back to Bohans Barn. Thanks Gillian.

"The house was spotless and the kitchen very well equipped with every appliance you could need."
We had a lovely few nights in front of the wood burning stove. Plenty of hot water & extra towels, pillows, throws if needed. The beds & sofas were super comfy which was very important for my elderly mother who travelled with us. The kids loved the outdoor space & the quiet lane they could cycle down not to mention the 3 horses in the field. We really appreciated the breakfast items left for us in the fridge! I highly recommend Bohans Barn to anyone & I am only sorry we booked for 3 nights & not longer!

"Lovely cottage in a very beautiful part of Ireland."
Gillian was a perfect host - friendly, welcoming and informative and her horses were equally friendly! The cottage is very well-equipped and cosy with comfortable beds and plenty of bathroom facilities which is great for our family of five. There’s lots to do in the surrounding area. We recommend Céide Fields and a trip to Belmullet. Ballina is the nearest large town with lots of interesting little shops and very friendly folk. We’d definitely return to the cottage and the area.

"Gillian and Eamonn are the most friendly and welcoming of hosts."
Bohan’s barn is a gem of a holiday home which is furnished to the highest standard: our every need was anticipated. It is spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The setting in the small wood offered us opportunities to see hares in garden, deer and the wonderful horses both in the stables and in the field.
I can not recommend Bohan’s Barn enough: it is within easy reach of the towns of Crossmolina, Ballina, Castlebar and Foxford; We visited wonderful beaches at beaches Ballycastle, Ross, Carrowmore Lacken and Enniscrone; Stunning geography and dramatic scenery at Downpatrick; a short drive took is to Belmullet and Achill.
North Mayo is truly magnificent and Bohan’s Barn is ideal to tour its rugged beauty…we will be back. Thanks Gillian and Eamonn.
