Very lively decor house. Great location and a very clean house. I'll definitely book this house again.
clean, great layout, really comfortable and excellent location.
The location was central and convenient. The property was definitely as its name describes … UNBORING. It provides perfect holiday accommodation in the West of Ireland
What didn’t I like? I have nothing to say here!
Loved the location and the decor!
The main road was quiet noisey very early in the morning.
Very comfortable house. We had everything we needed. It was brilliant. Very close to town center. Very quiet.
Nothing
Great location in the town. Very cosy & welcoming. Loved the colourful decoration. Garden would be great in the summer. Everything was there, so very comfortable. Obviously well thought through.
Bathroom radiator a bit unreliable.
Location perfect, 5-10 mins walk to restaurants etc. Cosy feel to the place but enough room for a family of 4 to have their own space. Garden would be ideal for summer too.
Nothing! A wardrobe would be handy for hanging clothes but there are pegs on the doors and hangers provided plus a chest of drawers in each bedroom. Coat pegs are also by the door.
Amazing, fun home decor, all the basic amenities we needed, and excellent communication.
Lovely house and the decor was quirky and fun!
Nothing not to like!
Comfortable and stylish accommodation. A tidy arrangement of furniture. Walking distance easy to main streets and garden at rear a big plus allowing space to entertain a child. Thoughtful touches abound. Heated nicely. Kitchen provides everything needed. Colourful styling, the owner has made this a fun and functional place to stay. One of the best I have seen.
Such a cool , colourful and quirky little house! Really cute, beds were so comfy! And a gorgeous garden too.
Loved the quirkiness of the house and the welcome received. Location was excellent and was a very short walk to the town centre. The house had everything we needed and a lovely yard to sit outside.
The challenging creative design, the celebration of the colour 'pink', the upgraded modern facilities, the colour coordination, the cleanliness, the simplicity and ease of access
Not meeting in person the owner, just to meet and greet. But great texting and positive friendliness, excellent !
We loved the decor, full of humour and little surprises. The location was excellent, 10 minute walk to all amenities, 10 minute drive to Enniscrone beach.

Great location and the property was so cute, had a wonderful stay
The house was a great location to walk into town, was nicely decorated and had all the little touches - washing detergent, shampoo, conditioner etc. We loved our stay.
Loved the house and decor and a good location, only a few minutes from town.
Nothing, was perfect
The place is lovely, lots of charm and humour in the decorations. It was very clean.
Fab and quirky, loved the decor and themes in every room . Kitchen well equipped, easy psrking right ourside.
A second loo would have been handy
Absolutely lovely apartment! We were staying with our 12 year old son, and he just thought it was great. All the little quirky bits and pieces around the place. Plus the books that were there. The apartment is right in Ballina, so it's literally a three minute walk down to the center of the town. Close to shops and restaurants, it's a real little gem. Unfortunately the weekend we were there it rained quite a bit, so we couldn't use the outdoor setting, but it looked really lovely. Would be great in nice weather. Ballina is really close to lots of northern Mayo attractions too, so it was just a perfect place to stay over all. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking of staying in Ballina. Everything in the house was spotlessly clean, and it was just a real treat to stay there.
Nothing
The house is beautifully decorated, funky style, and spotlessly clean. There's a lovely outdoor space with a table and chairs. The house is well equipped with all essentials. There are nice additional touches like games and foodstuffs, including packets of Tayto crisps in a bowl! The location is great too. Central but not noisy.
Nothing!
Fantastic prooerty. Excellent location 5 minutes walk from the town. Loved the back garden, was a real sun trap. Will definitely stay again.
Coffee machine didn’t work needed descaling.
Great location ,lovely house
Can't think of anything
Very modern, clean and very well equipped. Great shower and comfortable beds. Looked exactly like the photos. Nicola was very quick at responding to any questions.
No dedicated parking space, but we did find parking on the street.
Its a beautiful, private space with a lovely rear garden.
It was a good place. We cooked our own breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen.
Thin walls. Everything could be heard.
This spacious apartment was everything we needed! We were met with the keys and given wonderful recommendations on dining. Parking was easy. It's situated in a central area if you want to travel north, south or west for sight seeing. Rooms are comfortable, and the small touches like hanging hooks for your towels, coffee pods for your morning, and laundry pods for when you need to clean a few things are thoughtful and appreciated. If the weather was warmer I would have enjoyed my coffee on the patio. We walked to restaurants and pubs each night after a beautiful day in Ireland. Definitely would stay here again.
There is road noise from the tire center across the street, bring earplugs or a use the noise maker app on your phone- wasn't really that bothersome.
I was thrilled and enchanted by this beautifully decorated apartment which felt like the fairy home of my dreams! A mix of stylish funkiness with furniture upholstered by the owners in wild colourful fabrics, with a magical fairy side that appeals to the inner child, with pinks, flowers and both a fairy door and fairy lights in one of the bedrooms. Would be great for kids with lots of board games, kids books like Horrible Histories, etc. A lovely back garden terrace too.
The only thing to note is that this is not a wheelchair accessible apartment, none of the bedrooms or the bathroom is on the ground floor so you will have to use the stairs to get to these rooms. Two of the three bedrooms that face onto the road are quite noisy due to traffic so bring earplugs.
It was very charming, definitely’unboring’ Comfortable, immaculately clean, every convenience and we really appreciated the treats left by our lovely host, Nicola. The house was in a central location, with easy parking.
Absolutely nothing.
I highly recommend this property. Very cosy and beautifully decorated. My children were so excited with their rooms and everyone slept well in beds. It has everything you need for staying away from home. We will come again!
All the small touches - it was fab thank you.
Fabulous house! So cosy ! Fab decor! Very comfortable beds.
Place was so comfy and welcoming, would highly recommend, great location 2min walk from the town
Road noise was the only off putting thing when sleeping in front room but would not stop me booking again
The house was exactly as described, everything was perfect and the furniture was beautiful!
The decor was modern and fresh. Everything was in good condition and clean and tidy on arrival. On arrival there was also a collection of essential items on the table such as bread and milk along with biscuits and crisps. Lovely gesture!
The shower wasn’t brilliant. It took a few minutes to get the hot water and the pressure wasn’t that good. Not the end of the world though.
Everything
Beautifully decorated, very cosy and welcoming, clean and came with all the desired facilities and utilities needed. The little fairy park in the garden was cute!

Clean and beautiful home
Central location close to all amenities, convenient car parking, beautifully decorated, homely feeling, spotlessly clean and secure garden.
central location with high calibre interior . parking out side the property did not present any problems, always space for 2 cars nearby
some road noise in front bedroom although generally the property was well insulated.
The house was walking distance into Ballina . Lovely interiors . Nicola very thoughtful left tea milk and treats for kids . Very comfortable house .
Nothing
Great location, easy walk into town. Lovely clean space and nice outdoor patio. Beds, bathroom, etc were all amazing. Treats left by host and easy communication were icing on the cake!
A Fabulous little cottage and loads of nice twirky bits throughout the house. The house was fully equipped with everything you need for your stay. Great location and best of all Nicola was a superb host.
The noisy traffic at night, we live in the countryside so not used to that but we all did manage to get a great 2 night's sleep.
Excellent location, parking outside door, spotless, full range of facilities. Kids just loved the board games.
The Tayto sandwiches! 😊
Everything. Lovely finishing touches
Nothing
The house was beautiful and very comfortable. The location was great. Nicola was so kind she had left basic essentials to have a cup of tea/coffee, bread,milk & crisps were a lovely touch. The house was spotless & the rooms were a nice size. I would totally recommend it to anyone. Lovely back garden too.
No complaints.
The house was beautiful and had a wonderful courtyard that was a welcome sun trap allowing us to have breakfast outside to enjoy the lovely weather we were lucky to get. The contact from the owner was excellent and the lovely welcome pack on arrival was a very welcoming addition. We will definitely return :)
There was nothing we didn't like, a 2nd toilet would have been great but wouldn't deter us from booking again.
As instructed, a code was emailed to myself on the day of check-in. The Key box was very simple to use. The Cottage was absolutely beautiful, clean and a lovely welcome on the fridge with my name on it! There were lovely complimentary goodies "essentials" - bread, milk, butter, TATO crisps and biscuits,.not to mention tea/coffee and coffee pods along with all kitchen/washing facilities - you would not need to buy anything. The furniture and decor were one-off bespoke pieces and you can clearly see a designer had thought carefully about how to make this cottage stand out from the rest! The courtyard to the back was a great addition with vibrant garden furniture and lovely to sit out each morning/South facing with a cuppa and listening to the birds singing. It's a 5 minute walk (down hill) into the Centre of Ballina with car parking right outside the cottage. We were in Ballina for a family reunion from all over the Globe who were staying at hotels/other air BnB's and ours certainly stood out from the rest, so much so, I passed on the details to others who return annually. I would so stay here again...in fact I could live in this Cottage!! I would urge anyone who reads this to book...you will not be disappointed.
Nothing - it's a home from home!
Very cosy and excellent location close to everything.
We are not long back from our trip to Ballina. The property was unreal, really nice and cozy. The location is good, about a 5 minute walk to the town centre. Nicola is a great host, everything has been thought off, from leaving a welcome snack and a welcome sign to books and board games to use. I could not fault this property, it is spotlessly clean and the beds are also very comfy. You won't regret staying here! Thank you again Nicola ☺️
Decoration location comfort
The property was clean and all amenities accounted for
No hairdryer
What a beautiful little house..Great location and spotlessly clean...
Such a great location! Ballina is a lovely town to visit!
Fab little place and a great location. Communication was very good with Nicola.
Beautifully decorated, comfortable, cozy home, in walking distance to the town centre. Thoughtful treats on arrival. Nicola was great to respond quickly to any questions we had. Would highly recommend and would stay again.
First impressions of houses close to the rental were a little rundown, however it didn't effect our visit. Nicolas house is very well maintained and is beautiful inside and out.
Beautiful, bright and spacious home in the heart of Ballina
Nothing
Everything! From the moment I booked it til the day we were going home we had easy communication with our host. The best time in the most comfy stylish spotless accomodation full of little quirks. A welcome pack & message on arrival. Walking distance into town. Shop/petrol station across the road. Central location to explore the Mayo North coast. We will definitely be returning!
Nicola was lovely and responded promptly to all our questions. The property was very clean and well equipped. The location was practically placed for visiting Ballina town center.
This place was absolutely amazing, I've never stayed anywhere quite like it. Just absolutely stunning and welcoming and comfortable and quirky. Every little detail in the home is high quality and we'll designed and the furnishing were beautiful.
I honestly don't have any faults
Perfect for a weekend in Ballina
Everything, loved all the rooms and facilities.
Very handy for visiting
Very clean and great location
The thoughtful & very beautiful furnishings & restoration of this lovely old building. Personal touches, welcome pack & warm welcome.
It met all my expectations
We loved the house, it was quirky, colourful and fun in a modern, beautiful, clean and practical way. Ideal location for the town and local minimart just up the road which is convenient. The owners were so friendly and welcoming and efficient
Lovely big enclosed garden currently in progress of being developed has the potential to be lovely, is a great sun trap and is private - ground from kitchen to garden is a bit uneven and dips slightly at the moment
Excellent property and host.
Beautifully decorated and lovely personal touches like a welcome note on the fridge and crisps, chocolate, bread and milk. Nice and quiet even though its situated on a main road. Kids slept great!
Small thing but missed having a bath for the little ones. Also nowhere to hang clothes
The cosiness & beautiful decor
