It was champagne all round at the National Ploughing Championships last week when Stephen McDonnell from Turlough, Castlebar was awarded a long service certificate by holiday lettings company, The Hoseasons Group, for partnering with them over the past 10 years.
The Hoseasons Group is one of Europe’s largest rental companies and has been responsible for bringing tourists from all over Ireland to this beautiful part of the country.
Speaking about the award, Mr McDonnell said: “We’ve had a great year, welcoming guests from all over the world, and of course from other parts of Ireland. Despite the recession, business has been good and if anything, our season has stretched.”
He continued: “Having our property featured in The Hoseasons Group brochures gives us great exposure to potential guests in a way we could never achieve on our own. It’s great for us as a business and great for our local area.”
Wendy Halliday, UK and Ireland property manager, The Hoseasons Group added: “We are honoured to work with our Irish owners. We know times are tough but are working with Irish owners to ensure we promote Ireland to all potential holidaymakers and ensure those who come are having a great time.”
