Enniscoe House is a Georgian country house at Castlehill, near Crossmolina, County Mayo, set in parkland overlooking Lough Conn. Its host, Susan Kellett, is a direct descendant of the family who settled on the lands in the 1600s, and her son, Dj Kellett, has now joined her.
The house offers six guest bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, between 1 April and the end of October. The three large front bedrooms look out over the parkland and the lake. Self-catering apartments are offered separately, and the whole house can be hired for family gatherings.
The estate has a Victorian walled garden and pleasure grounds, and woodland paths that run down to the lake. A museum and a family history centre are also on the estate.
Guests can go boating and fishing on Lough Conn, and the house lists golf, hiking, cycling and horse riding nearby.
