Property Description

The Old Mill Holiday Hostel is owned and run by the Carr family. It is set in an old courtyard, just off James Street, giving it a very central location in Westport, Co.Mayo. We hope you enjoy your time at the Old Mill and will return some day.

Built around C1780 the building has undergone many changes over the years. It was part of a network of warehouse buildings used as a brewery in the 18th century. It later served as a storehouse, animal shelter and slaughter house, a chicken hatchery and in 1991 was renovated and converted into a low budget holiday hostel. It has been welcoming visitors from all over the world ever since.

Room options for the Old Mill Holiday Hostel include;

Five x 4 bed dorms (some with optional 5th bed)
Two x 6 bed dorms (some with optional 7th bed)
One x 8 bed dorm
One x 12 bed dorm

The Old Mill Holiday Hostel offers clean and comfortable hostel accommodation, where the bedrooms feature the old stone walls and wooden beams refurbished to create a warm relaxing ambiance ensuring a calm mind and peaceful sleep.

Lovely staff and super friendly. Not an issue for me, but it would be nice if an email was sent beforehand that it is cash-only - had to run by the ATM to get cash out. My only quirk - I got moved out of my room to another one as I was told there was a group coming. Was moved into another room with a group which were noisy and disrespectful. Apparently, weekends are when people party so be aware. Would have appreciated being moved to a quiet dorm or been made aware of moving.
