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.
