News & Reviews for Carrick Holiday Homes
REVIEW posted on weddingsonline.ie site
Hi All,
Just thought I'd write a little note about the hens We organised for our friend in Carrick on Shannon. Great spot ! We booked 4 houses just one minute walk from the town. Perfect location and ideal for a group of 35 ! instead of a load of hotel rooms we were able to go back to the houses and talk about the nights events. Make tea breakfast etc the next morning and generally got to know everyone better for the big day!
On the Friday we went for a Chinese and then onto Dunnes then to Murtagh's where we went upstairs to the over 30's bar brilliant music catered for all the Mammy's Aunties etc as it was a great mix of 80's 90's etc. The Sat we had a Surprise champagne reception in one of the houses that we decorated with all things girly. We then reserved a section in the Boardwalk Cafe ( Landmark Hotel ) where everyone could get what they wanted from Sandwich - Steak. We then went on the Moon River Cruise. Great Fun we'll worth it .. and finished the night off in Murtagh's.
Oh the website if you want to have a look at these houses is
www.carrickholidayhomes.com (Price only worked out at €30 per night depending on how many you have staying in each house.) Phil the proprietor couldn't do enough for us even posted me copy of the Leitrim post after the hens with pics of us all in the "out and about " Section !
Well recommended

Just back from a hen party where we stayed in Sonoma and Riverside House. Would highly recommend these houses for groups looking to stay in Carrick. The houses were immaculate and had little extras we hadn't been expecting. Phil was an absolute star and couldn't possibly have been more helpful. She even helped us with our bags back to the bus!! The houses are a great alternative to hotels as we could lounge around in the living rooms and sit out the back for a chat!! Thanks again so much.

Just had to leave a message for anyone thinking on staying here. It was absolutely brilliant. Just a minute walk into town and everyone that was on the hen party really enjoyed it. We had two houses both were spotlessly clean. If you are going to Carrick-on-Shannon and want somewhere near town with brilliant service here is definately the place to stay. They even give you loads of info on restaurants, tours etc.

We were in Carrick last weekend for my sister's hen party and stayed in your Riverside and Sonoma houses. All 19 of us would like to thank you very much for your kind hospitality during our stay in Carrick. Your houses were exceptionally clean and very well furnished. Both houses were within walking distance of the town which was an added bonus as there was no need for taxi's. You were able to provide plenty of safe parking also which was essential for us as approx. 10 of us drove to Carrick that weekend. I found you to be very friendly, approachable and informative during our stay. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with you and I'm looking forward to my next visit. I would highly recommend your houses. Thanks again. Olwen

Just back from my two night hen party in Carrick On Shannon!... What a weekend… brilliant time from start to finish!!. I heard about Carrick Holiday Homes from a girl at work and thought it would be ideal… as it was close to the town (1min walk) and most importantly it was cheap!.. as most girls were attending both nights I didn’t want them spending lots of money on expensive hotel. I booked the house that sleeps 8 people for Friday and Saturday night and booked the house that sleeps 6 just for the Saturday night. Couldn’t believe how close the second house was… literally at the back door!
Most girls coming knew about 2 or 3 and didn’t know the others so was worried they wouldnt mix.. but bit hard NOT to mix with this set up!... Everyone gathered around in the sitting room in the big house… got the crack going.. everyone got to mingle with people they didn’t know and that meant everyone was really relaxed for the wkend… and was really easy to chat to people. When we got back from the night out we all met in the sitting room again.. had the chats and had karoke till the early morning!
Both mornings we cooked a big fry.. Put all food in centre of table and everyone helped themselves!... Was really relaxed.. Could sit around sitting room eating our frys in our pjs! :)
Would really recommend carrick holiday homes to anyone!!!..
Oh wish I was going back this wkend! :(
