Hosted by Bernie and her family.

Bernie and her family have welcomed guests to Kingfisher Lodge for many years. There are five ensuite bedrooms: three doubles, one twin and a larger four-poster room that sleeps three.

Downstairs, guests have a quiet TV and reading room, with tea and coffee available on request. In warmer weather, the patio and garden give you somewhere to sit outside.

Planning to fish the River Moy?

The Moy is known for its spring, summer and autumn salmon runs. Loughs Conn and Cullen are a short drive away for lake fishing, with sea fishing along the Mayo coast.

Bernie knows the local area well. She can help you find the right stretch of water and arrange the bookings and permits you need before you travel.

Exceptionally well presented country house bnb. Really comfortable and spotlessly clean. Lovely crisp bedding. Warm and spacious.

The breakfast is the best which I had in Ireland, with freshly baked scones.

Bernie at the Kingfisher Lodge is one in a million. Her knowledge of the local area is second to none.

Hostess Bernie is so hospitable and makes you so welcome you feel you have always known her. Spotless comfortable rooms, and the breakfast was a delight.

The paved patio with a picnic table and cast iron garden furniture, surrounded by planted borders and lawn

A patio, a lawn, and the fields beyond.

The paved patio is surrounded by landscaped gardens, with open fields beyond. On warmer days, it is a quiet place to sit after breakfast or unwind when you get back.

From the lodge, you can explore North Mayo's woodland and moorland, beaches and Atlantic coast. Ballina's restaurants, pubs and live music are 3 miles away.

A quiet base for exploring Mayo.

The Wild Atlantic Way passes through Ballina and continues around the Mayo coast. Kingfisher Lodge puts you within easy reach of the route, without staying in the middle of town.

There is off-road parking in the large driveway for cars, bicycles and motorbikes.
