Now open for bookings at �40 per person

2013 sees the return, by popular demand, of the ever popular Killala Cottages weekend at The Old Deanery in Co. Mayo, Ireland. Based in fully equipped cottages on the hill overlooking Broad Bay and consists of three nights starting on the Friday and finishing on the Monday morning and all for only �40 per head.

The cottages have all been refurbished since we were last there and I understand that there is now also some sort of communal area.

This Rally makes a great break in relaxing surroundings with some great company amidst the rural splendour and relaxed atmosphere that is Southern Ireland. There is great scenery, great riding roads and a few great Irish pubs in the village.....

We tend to pre-arrange very little for this event and most folk seem happy to just 'go with the flow' Most will take ride-outs at some point, both to see the scenery, ride the roads, visit some attraction or just find a local bar for soup and a roll.....

For Saturday evening we will have a meal arranged in a local bar. Cost of the meal is not included in the Rally fee and there is no obligation to attend although, in practice everyone usually does as it tends to make for a great evening out together. The three course meal will be in ?? Euros per person. Members wishing to attend must let me know prior to the event so we can give numbers to the bar. Details of this will be confirmed nearer the time.

The cottages are fully equipped and all you need to bring are your own towels. Each house tends to do it's own catering with folk getting together to cook and/or buy provisions so you won't particularly need to cater for yourself just be willing to help out with whatever needs doing..... All totally relaxed.

Travel - most folk tend to cross the Irish Sea from Holyhead to Dublin Port on the 0820 Stena ferry and the last time we went, the majority booked into the Travel Lodge at Holyhead the night before for the early sailing  which makes for an easy start and a leisurely day to cover the 160 miles to Killala along with various lunch and tea stops. Ferry times keep on changing so we'll need to look at those later in the year. We normally have a discount code that you will be can use for a Stena ferry booking and it's likely that this will make the fare in the region of �50 each way.

Cost is �40 per person. We have five cottages available, each with one double room, one twin room and one room with either two or three beds.  - single rooms are not available so if you are coming alone you will be roomed with another person. This means that there are only 30 places available on a 'First come, First Served' basis so early booking and payment is highly recommended. So Book Now........ if you'd like to attend this rally you need to get those bookings in now......
