“The owner Paddy Costello is very helpful and the view from the Cottage is amazing.”

“Lovely vacation”

Church View cottage is conveniently located, with Newport town centre within easy walking distance and just off the Great Western Greenway, but still very quiet and secluded – ideal to explore the area far and wide (with Achill Island, certainly one of Ireland's most beautiful spots, close by), and also for simply relaxing and taking a breather, especially in the beautiful garden with the mountain vista. The cottage itself offers everything you need and is well kept by its very affable owner, who adds a very personal touch to his beautiful house to make his guests feel welcome. The beds (one queen-size in one room, two singles in the other) are very comfortable and there's plenty of storage available in both bedrooms.

“Beautiful cottage”

This is the perfect small cottage - immaculately presented and with personal attention from its owner Paddy Costello, himself something of a local legend. A short walk to the pubs, cafes and good shops of Newport, which is largely unspoiled by tourism but is a short drive from the great tourist sites of the area, such as Achill Island and Croagh Patrick. We particularly enjoyed the Ballycroy national park - admittedly helped by lovely weather! Don't miss the Harry Clarke stained glass windows in the Newport RC church.

“Fantastic”

Spent a week here in May. The description did not do it justice. The views across the valley towards the mountains is fantastic. The cottage had everything we needed and was ideally situated for touring the area. The Greenway is on the doorstep so ideal for cyclists/walkers. Will definitely coming back next year.

“Church view-Cottage in Newport is a very good place for a lot of activities.”

Biking and hiking is possible in the nearby area. Bike hire in town, good maintained bikes and shuttle service to Achill Island. As we were travelling without a car, these possibilities were important for us. Nice view to the mountains, pleasant garden, close to the town. The host likes to meet the guests and is interested in their convenience.

“Great cottage”

“VERY CLEAN & COMFORTABLE HOME, SITUATED AT THE TOP OF A LOVELY VALLEY WITH A VIEW OF HORSES AND SHEEP & THE NEPHIN BEG MOUNTAIN RANGE FROM THE WELL EQUIPPED KITCHEN & A BEDROOM.”

A VIEW TOWARDS TOWN FROM THE OTHER BEDROOM & THE LOUNGE. VERY HOMELY DECORATED & MODERN BATH. MY HUSBAND WALKED INTO TOWN EACH DAY. IT WAS VERY PRETTY. PADDY CAME & TOOK MY HUSBAND FOR COFFEE IN TOWN. WE HAD GOOD LAMB FROM THE BUTCHER. WE TOOK PICNICS ON DAY TRIPS TO BURRISHOOLE ABBEY, WHERE I SKETCHED, WHILE HE HIKED, TO MULLRANNY TO HIKE, TO KEEL BEACH, ACHILL ISLAND (BOUGHT MORE LAMB), KEEM BEACH, BALLYCROY NATIONAL PARK, CROUGH PATRICK & THE NATIONAL FAMINE MEMORIAL. BACK TO CHURCH VIEW TO COOK, RELAX, WATCH TV AND PLAY CANASTA. THE FISH & CHIPS FROM THE FOOD TRUCK WAS GREAT.

“Lovely convenient cottage”

Very conveniently placed for Newport and surrounding area. Cottage is well equipped, warm and welcoming. Very friendly owner who will welcome you to visit Ashford Castle as well. Quiet situation off the main road but walkable into Newport. Perfect if you want to explore north mayo or fish the many fisheries in the area. Shed outside is perfect for wet gear. Lots of nice places to eat locally from brilliant fish and chips to gourmet dinners at Newport House. Great music in town at Grauine Uaile.

“Review of Church View Newport CoMayo”

We visited for two weeks in April 2018, the cottage is in a nice quiet area just outside of Newport town, it is clean, has two TV sets which have free view satellite and local channels via terrestrial tv, but tbh tv is the last thing on your mind as you are surrounded by great scenery, Mountains etc, we tended to use Nevins for the odd meals, but the food was muuuum fantastic, served by great friendly people try it yourself, There are other eateries and places for a tea or coffee in Newport, they have a reasonably good supermarket there,Bridgeport has several of the biggersuper markets. But the people you will find are so friendly and helpful, Paddy who owns the cottage came from Galway to a couple of meetings, and afterward we met up with him and he took us for a coffee, he is a very very nice guy,a character he would say, Just get out and explore you will find your own special places, and memories , you must catch the chip van which comes twice a week, don’t ask for large cod it’s enormous it really is. If you get a chance visit Parade in George’s street Newport, they do a nice Tea and Coffee plus cake,also gifts, art well all sorts, and the lady is very nice and helpful, plus you pickup all the gossip, we really enjoyed our tie at Paddies place, Church View,we hope to go again soon.

“Home from home”

Wonderful cottage in a lovely location. The cottage is well equipped and warm. Plenty of hot water and lovely log burner for those cold evenings. Plenty of outside space. The kitchen is well equipped if I was being really picky it's lacking a decent sharp knife! Paddy makes you feel very welcome. Newport itself is great plenty of pubs and shops within walking distance and lots of great places to visit in a short distance.

The property

Newport 0.8 miles.

A lovely detached character cottage on the outskirts of Newport, County Mayo.

Nestled in beautiful countryside, yet only ten minutes’ walk to the town, this cosy cottage offers two bedrooms and comfortable living accommodation to come home to after a busy day exploring everything this area has to offer.

Throw another log on the stove, sit back and relax, and recount your adventures of the day.

With a fitted kitchen offering a space to dine, you can rustle up a hearty breakfast whilst you spread out your maps and plot your next expedition!

Newport is a beautiful heritage town, stunningly located on the shores of Clew Bay.

Whether your idea of the perfect break is action-packed days of fishing, walking and cycling, or a more leisurely wander round a town steeped in history, Newport is the perfect base for a holiday in the west of Ireland.

County Mayo has some wonderful cycle routes to choose from.

Escape the bustle of urban life on the Great Western Greenway, the longest off road walking and cycling trail in Ireland; the Greenway follows Ireland’s Atlantic coast between Westport town and Achill Island and visits the picturesque villages of Newport and Mulranny.

For a family day out, you can’t beat a trip to the beach, and County Mayo has the highest number of Blue Flag beaches in the country, from small sheltered coves to stretches of sand – further than the eye can see.

Renowned for its excellent fishing, Newport offers something for everyone, whatever your level of expertise.

We have sea angling in the bountiful waters of Clew Bay, while Newport River and Beltra Lake are regarded as some of the best freshwater fishing grounds in Europe.

A stay in Newport just wouldn’t be complete without a visit to one of our traditional pubs.

Find a cosy corner and make yourself at home – enjoy the traditional music still thriving here, or simply savour the perfect pint, poured by a friendly local barman.

Take some time to discover Castlebar, Westport, Croagh Patrick Mountain and Achill Island, which are all well worth visiting.

A beautiful country cottage for your Irish adventure which will live long in the memory.
