Food, Music, Watersports. Our rooms are various sizes with a unique theme which the room is named. The price is based per person and please see the kids policy to avoid any incorrect pricing. We are now open for the season 2023. Please check for our opening times on the off - peak season.We are not a fully licence premises but we do have a selection of lovely beers & wines available.
Welcome to Pure Magic Achill, I am Francois (french) but in Ireland for 10 years and once was brought to Achill and... LOVED IT!!! The big open spaces, the sea, the wind, the mountains, the people, the music, the magic "Sharing is caring" , thats it
