Luxury US travel agents discover Mayo

TWENTY-TWO American travel agents have been exploring Mayo recently as guests of Tourism Ireland and Luxury Gold (part of The Travel Corporation).

The travel advisors are all specialists in luxury travel and are members of high-profile travel agent networks like Virtuoso, Travel Leaders and Signature Travel Network. They design unique, luxury travel itineraries for their US clients.

The aim of the visit was to familiarise them with Ireland and our superb luxury tourism offering, so that when they return home, they will be better informed and more enthusiastic than ever about Ireland when advising their clients about planning and booking their holidays here.

The group’s action-packed itinerary included a two-night stay at Ashford Castle, where they dined at Cullen’s at the Cottage and enjoyed a fine dining experience in the George V Dining Room.

Alison Metcalfe, Tourism Ireland’s Head of North America, said: “Tourism Ireland was delighted to work with Luxury Gold, to invite this group of specialist luxury travel agents to visit Ireland, to experience at first-hand some of our luxury tourism offering, including our boutique hotels and high-end resorts. Seeing is believing - and our aim is that when they return home, they will be even more enthusiastic about the destination, helping to secure a greater share of their business for Ireland in 2023 and beyond.”

A very brief history of Castlebar

There was a castle in the area called De Barra/Barry’s castle. It was built in the 13th century by a Norman adventurer and was later used as a garrison by the English.

The town of Castlebar was no stranger to armed conflict. For instance, the Irish rebellion of 1798 took place here.  General Humbert who was the commander of the French forces aided in a rout of the British garrison right in the town.

At the beginning of the 17th century, Castlebar received its charter from King James I. Michael Davitt also founded the Irish National Land League at the town’s Imperial Hotel in 1879.

Things to do in Castlebar

As you’ll discover in our guide to the best things to do in Castlebar , there are a handful of things to do  in  the town and an endless number of things to do neaby.

Below, you’ll find everything from hikes and walks to the brilliant Castlebar Greenway and much, much more.

1. Head off on the Castlebar Greenway

castlebar greenway

Connecting the National Museum of Ireland in Turlough Park with the county town of Castlebar, this greenway is a pleasant 7.3 km long linear route that follows the picturesque Castlebar River.

It will take you about 90 minutes to complete this trail and you’ll pass by native woodland and open countryside as you cycle.

The route is mostly flat with only one steep hill, which makes it a nice, handy cycle for the most part.

2. Spend a rainy day at the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life

You will find the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life in Turlough Park which is located about 8km from the centre of Castlebar. 

Established over 20 years ago as part of the National Museum of Ireland, this fully restored museum is nestled amid lovely gardens and a beautiful artificial lake.

Here, you can learn more about Irish country life between 1850 and 1950. Expect to see everything from interactive screens and archival video footage to displays and artifacts.

3. And a sunny day walking around Lough Lannagh

If you’re staying in Castlebar, then a visit to Lough Lannagh is simply a must! Spend a sunny day walking around the lake and admiring its natural beauty.

This popular picnic area boasts many new paths and walking trails for visitors to enjoy. Make sure to keep an eye out for the rounded bridges and you can even try stand-up paddle-boarding on the lake. 

4. Visit the waterfall Tourmakeady Woods (27-minutes away)

Nestled among the native Irish trees, the magical Tourmakeady Waterfall is without a doubt one of the most beautiful waterfalls on the Wild Atlantic Way .

Step inside the forest and admire the beauty of trees like oak, alder, birch, hazel, ash, and Scots pine before reaching Tourmakeady Wood’s signature feature – the waterfall.

Along the way, you may even come across spectacular wildlife including pine markets, badgers, foxes, and squirrels. Here’s a full guide to the walk .

5. Or take a spin out to Westport and climb Croagh Patrick (23-minutes away)

If you fancy a hike, you can’t go wrong with a morning spent climbing Croagh Patrick , the holiest mountain in Ireland. Overlooking Clew Bay, the mountain is associated with Ireland’s patron saint, St Patrick.

It is one of the most famous landmarks in County Mayo and attracts large crowds of visitors throughout the year. 

There is a tradition of pilgrimage to the summit of Croagh Patrick that stretches back over 5,000 years. Make sure to check out the Croagh Patrick Information Centre that is located at the base of the mountain in the village of Murrisk.

Castlebar is the county town of County Mayo in the west of Ireland. It's an agreeable provincial place but has limited sights within town; places of interest lie some distance out and you'll need your own transport.

Understand [ edit ]

travel agents castlebar co mayo

So this, plus a couple of lost battles, was the stuff of legend in Castlebar in the medieval period. The Norman castle is long gone, being replaced by a barracks, in use until 2012 then converted to council offices. For most of its history Castlebar was just a small town with a market and a racecourse, then in 1798 was its moment of fame when the French invaded. The United Irishmen led by Wolfe Tone sought help from republican France to throw off the British; a first invasion fleet in 1796 was beaten back by storms in Bantry Bay. The uprising of 1798 collapsed almost as soon as it began, only gaining control for a time of County Wexford , and utterly defeated by the end of June. So it was already too little, too late when the French landed near Killala on 22 Aug, with 1100 troops under General Humbert. But the area was lightly defended so they swept into Killala and Ballina; Castlebar was obviously next.

The British had time to reinforce Castlebar with 6000 men, but they expected attack to come along the Ballina road from the northeast. The French learned of a path through the bogs and uplands of Nephin, west of Lough Conn, and caught the British off-balance; they came under artillery fire but advanced up a sheltered gully. Their bayonet charge panicked the British, so a numerically superior, better-equipped force turned tail and ran, and ran and ran even though they weren't pursued. It became known as the "Castlebar Races", a legend that outlived the racecourse itself, let alone the brief "Connaught Republic" then proclaimed. It was all over 12 days later as British forces poured into the region, and its Irish supporters paid with their lives.

The town then lapsed back into obscurity, with the standard ups and downs of Victorian Irish country life: occasional "great inclemency of weather, and mortality of cattle", the end of the Penal Laws against Catholics, the terrible famines and mass emigration, the arrival of the railway. There wasn't much industry and Castlebar grew little until the 1990s, with better road links and the opening of a campus of the Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology. In 2016 it had a population of 12,068.

The TIC is in Linenhall in town centre, see Arts Centre below.

Map

By plane [ edit ]

Ireland West Airport Knock ( NOC  IATA ), 32 km east, has flights mostly from UK.

You might prefer to fly into Dublin, which has a much better choice of flights, then drive west.

By train [ edit ]

Trains from Dublin Heuston take 3 hours to Castlebar. On the morning service (heading for Galway) you change at Athlone, later in the day three direct trains run via Portarlington , Tullamore , Clara , Athlone , Roscommon , Castlerea, Ballyhaunis, Claremorris and Manulla Junction to Castlebar, continuing to Westport . A branch line from Manulla Junction runs to Ballina , connecting with westbound and eastbound trains. A walk-up single from Dublin is €22, see Irish Rail for timetables, fares and online tickets.

53.847 -9.288 1 Castlebar railway station is 1 km southeast of town centre off N84. Ticket office hours are erratic but there are ticket machines and toilets.

By bus [ edit ]

There is no direct bus from Dublin. You'd need to travel via Athlone or Galway, a weary trek by either route. From Galway , Expressway 52 runs every 3 hours daily via Tuam and Claremorris to Castlebar (1 hr 45 min), Foxford and Ballina. The slower Bus 456 runs every 3 hours via Headford, Shrule and Ballinrobe to Westport then Castlebar.

Bus 440 from Westport takes 20 min to Castlebar. It continues to Knock airport and village, Roscommon and Athlone . There are 4 M-Sa and two on Sunday.

Local Link Bus 978 runs twice M-Sa from Belmullet on the Mullet / Erris Peninsula to Bangor Erris, Ballycroy, Newport and Castlebar. It's timed to enable day-trips from the peninsula to Castlebar; a day-trip out to Belmullet is not feasible but it would give you a couple of hours at Ballycroy.

McGrath Coach R3 runs once M-Sa around 10:00 from Glenamoy via Bangor Erris to Castlebar and heads back around 17:00.

Bus Éireann 422 runs three times a day from Castlebar to Balintubber, Ballinrobe, Neale, Cong , Cross, Glencorrib and Headford, where it connects with Burkes Bus to Galway.

By car [ edit ]

Driving from Dublin take M4 / N4 to Longford then N5 all the way to Castlebar, and reckon 3 hours.

Get around [ edit ]

Castlebar itself is easy to walk around, but most sights are several km out in the country with scant public transport, so you need a car.

  • Town centre is agreeable 19th century low rise, the best of it is along Market St. Traffic there is southbound, eddying clockwise via Upper Chapel St northbound. The castle has completely gone, leaving a green space east side of the centre.
  • 53.858 -9.301 1 Church of the Holy Rosary (RC) is on Upper Chapel St. It was built from 1897 after many set-backs and tribulations, and the spire was never added. The exterior is rather rough-hewn Victorian Gothic but the interior is more successful.
  • 53.854 -9.307 2 Mayo Peace Park naturally caused bitter feuds. It was created in 2008 to commemorate the many local people who died in the two World Wars and other conflicts; but they mostly did so in British uniform under the Union Jack, plus quite a few for the US, what about all our Republican / Fenian deaths, are they not good enough? And then a local online scandal sheet ran a story about homosexual assignations in the park, in less-than-inclusive language, and the story itself became a media story, with legal threats and accusations every which way. The scandal sheet imploded shortly thereafter, there ought to be some kind of monument . . . The park is a pleasant place to stroll by Lough Lannagh southwest edge of town.
  • 53.884 -9.208 3 Museum of Country Life , Turlough Park House F23 HY31 ( 5 km east of Castlebar off N5 ), ☏ +353 94 903 1755 . Su M 13:00-17:00, Tu-Sa 10:00-17:00 . This branch of the National Museum depicts arts and crafts of rural Ireland, mainly 1850-1950. It's in a modern building by the Victorian Gothic Turlough House. Free . ( updated Feb 2021 )
  • Turlough Round Tower is some 500 m north of the museum and may date to 1000 AD. It's a well preserved but unusually stubby specimen.
  • 53.921 -9.131 4 Michael Davitt Museum , Strade ( 16 km east of Castlebar on N84 ), ☏ +353 94 903 1942 . Tu-Sa 10:30-17:30 . Davitt (1846-1906) was born here but when he was 4 the family were evicted for rent arrears. They moved to Lancashire, where he began work in a cotton mill but lost his right arm in the machinery. Thus radicalised, he went on to join the Irish Republican Brotherhood, campaigning with Parnell on land reform and Home Rule, and serving two spells in prison. The museum is in an old church used before the Penal Laws outlawed RC masses. Adult €5, child €3 . ( updated Feb 2021 )
  • Strade Abbey is next to the Davitt Museum, and he's buried here. It was founded as a Franciscan friary in 1240 but in 1252 switched to Dominican, then burnt down. Rebuilt, it continued until Dissolution in 1578. The best feature of the ruin is the tomb in the chancel.

travel agents castlebar co mayo

  • 53.763 -9.246 6 Clogher Heritage Centre is a small museum of country life in a farm cottage in Catford. It's open M-F 10:00-16:00.
  • 53.713 -9.226 7 Moore Hall is the imposing but teetering shell of an 18th century mansion. George Moore made his money from the Spanish wine and brandy trade, and his descendants were also notable. The house was torched in 1923 during the Civil War and the ruin is now surrounded by commercial woodland.
  • See Ballina for North Mayo Heritage Museum and other sights around Lough Conn.
  • See Newport for Burrishoole Abbey and other sights north of Clew Bay.
  • See Cong for the county racecourse, and sights around Lough Mask.

The town team Castlebar Mitchels also play here. (They might want to rethink that name as Mitchel was a notorious advocate of slavery, see Newry his home town.) The county hurling team also plays here but football is the big sport in Mayo.
  • Mayo Leisure Point has ten pin bowling, laser and arcade games and a toddlers play area. It's on Moneen Rd east side of town centre.

Drink [ edit ]

travel agents castlebar co mayo

  • McHales , Newline, Knockthomas ( corner with New Antrim St ), ☏ +353 94 902 1849 . Daily 12:00-02:00 . Old-style pub, family-friendly, does decent bar food and may have rooms. But McHales place in lore is that it's nowadays the only pub in the known universe to still serve Guinness by the meejum , an obscure measure short of a pint. The term means "medium" and was first documented in southwest Ireland circa 1890. It appeared in those days to indicate a drink sold by price not volume - a pennyworth, say - so its volume varied by pub and content. It was probably a widespread custom but only officially noticed after the 1878 Weights and Measures Act, which standardised volumes and required officially-calibrated beer glasses. Court actions arose from customers reckoning themselves short-changed, or from police or trading inspectors, and publicans using glasses marked as "medium" also fell foul of the law. The practice died out in the 20th century, although the term "medium" was used for servings in other ways. So raise a glass in McHales, containing a volume which remains undefined but is somewhat less than the SI-derived unit pint of 568.261 ml. It's a quantum thing, if you could state its exact volume then you couldn't state how quickly you drank it or who's round it is. ( updated Feb 2021 )
  • Lots more pubs in town centre along Bridge Street.
  • Castlebar Gin Trail: the town aspires to be Ireland's gin capital. They're content to serve and drink it, Mayo doesn't have a brewing or distilling tradition.

Sleep [ edit ]

travel agents castlebar co mayo

  • 53.86 -9.298 1 Ivy Tower Hotel , New Antrim St F23 DT35 , ☏ +353 94 902 2288 . Clean friendly place near town centre. B&B double €80 . ( updated Feb 2021 )
  • Carragh House is a B&B on Knockthomas Rd just north of Ivy Tower.
  • Kenny's Guest House is on Lucan St.
  • Connaught Inn [dead link] is a little further west, on Spencer St.
  • TF Royal Hotel is southwest near the hospital.
  • The Ellson is also by the hospital.
  • Imperial Hotel is a town landmark, but it closed in 2009 and was sold to the council, who've let it fall derelict.
