The Old Deanery Holiday Cottages are a group of eight holiday cottages directly overlooking the broad bay of Killala, Co.Mayo.
The Cottages are family run with personal attention given to all our guests.
We have won several awards for the architecture and gardens surrounding the cottages.
Cottages boast their own individual views overlooking the bay to Bartra island and Enniscrone . The cottages are fitted to a high standard to cater for all the needs of the family, with three bedrooms, a fully fitted kitchen and a combined living and dining area, the focal point of which is a Liscannor stone fireplace
We are open all year round and welcome individuals and groups .The cottages are in the historic village of Killala with its famous Round tower- one of the finest in the country.

The Welcome from Tony and Liz was great - also the fire was blazing when we arrived! A lovely touch after our journey! House was very adequate, with all facilties (washing machine, coffee machine included!!) and the setting was ideal. Overlooking Killala Bay, but within a few minutes of Ballina. The scenery was spectacular - Downpatrick Head is well worth a visit. Blows the cobwebs out of the system! One big plus point was that we were able to take our dog with us! Will be recommending to all our friends and will be back! Thank you Tony and Liz for a really nice stay.
