Derreens Hill House is a guest house, and its five reviews average a full 5 out of 5, a score that reflects how consistently guests judge their stays. The house takes its name from the surrounding hill country, and the address places it in the rural heart of the island rather than on the coast road. From here, Keel, Dooagh, Dugort and Bunacurry are all close enough for an easy drive, while Mallaranny on the mainland is reachable via Achill Sound. The website, derreens-hill-house-holiday-home.ireland-hotels.net, gives a fuller picture of the property.
Breakfast is a cooked affair in this part of Ireland, with soda bread and smoked salmon often on the table. Island pubs serve seafood chowder and host traditional music sessions with fiddle, tin whistle and bodhrán. Grey seals, basking sharks in summer and seabirds such as puffins and gannets surround Irish islands. The North Atlantic Drift keeps Irish islands mild in winter, so snow is rare and short-lived.
