cosy nest at Bertra
A wonderful host(ess) and a cosy nest of a place with inspired art work and verdant garden giving onto a magnificent view of the 'Reek' and within close walking distance of the scenic Betra Strand. Westport close enough for visiting friends and shopping, but this nest is far enough away to provide dark skies and a totally silent night. Comfortable bed and small but handy kitchen. If you are fit go on and climb the mountain you can climb it from here. But if temptation prevails, relax on the sunny patio deck and sample whatever you cook or imbibe whilst drinking in the fabulously clear air.

Beautiful location
Charming apartment with all the amenities. Our 5 days were spent exploring the beautiful area, Westport, Achill Island, the Knock Shrine and the Dooluogh Valley. Hilary is charming and accommodating and kept us stocked with firewood and peat for the fireplace. We definitely recommend!!

Wonderful experience
We had an amazing stay. The apartment is very cosy and ideal for a couple. The view is stunning (if not spoiled by weather). Hilary is a wonderful host, very welcoming and making sure you have a great stay. Her ideas for local excursions off the beaten track were very useful. Highly recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Hilary

Host profile image
I am Dublin born and love to travel, sail and ski. Also like reading and really old romantic movies in b/w and music. I really enjoy to meet interesting people and travellers. Most of all I love Mayo and Clew Bay for its spectacular wildness and adventure.

Why they chose this property

Architect designed property which we built in 2001. Spectacular location on the Bertra Strand Peninsular under the Holy Mountain of Croagh Patrick which is an extinct volcano. Westport has been voted the best place to live in Ireland by the Irish Times and is the adventure sports, cycling (Greenway) and fishing location. Going West on the Wild Atlantic Way there are surfing beaches nearby and ferries to the Islands from Louisburgh.

What makes this property unique

Amazing Panoramic Views of Croagh Patrick from the sun deck. Enjoy spectacular sunsets on Bertra Strand of Clew Bay and its islands. Property is on the Greenway extension from Croagh Patrick which means you can walk or cycle to Croagh Patrick approx. 1 km and the village of Murrisk with 2 Pubs with Food/Restaurant. Quiet private road location. Only minutes walk from the beach of Bertra with sand dunes. Close to the quaint harbour town of Westport and Louisburgh with its many surfing beaches and Old Head with its ancient oak forest.
