Our Self-Catering Holiday Home On Achill
The Story Behind The Name
Your self-catering accommodation The Graces is named in tribute to two remarkable women – both born on the same island, both sharing the same name, and both later becoming part of the same family.
Their genuine hospitality reflected the true spirit of Achill, a legacy that continues to guide us to this day.
This lodge is our home away from home, shaped by their warmth and welcome. While you’re here, we hope The Graces becomes a home for you too – somewhere to relax, unwind, and experience the island they loved so much.
