If being outdoors appeals to you, then this is the perfect holiday base. It is a fantastic location for angling on the shores of Lough Corrib and close to the Black River (boats and ghillies are available for hire locally). Wildlife enthusiasts have a wide variety of flora and fauna to see including some rare species e.g. pine marten, kingfisher, mute swan nesting site and bee orchids. Golf is available in nearby Ballinrobe. Local historical interests include Ross Abbey, Killursa and Moyne monastic sites, Ballycurrin Lighthouse, local ring-forts, Cong, Inchagoill(which can be visited by boat from beside Ashford Castle). It is also an ideal base for touring the surrounding countryside e.g. Connemara, Westport, Croagh Patrick and the Burren. However if the countryside is getting too much, Galway city is only 28km away where you can savour the laid back atmosphere of its shop lined streets and its many festivals (Arts Festival, Racing Festival and Oyster Festival).
