Location: Ross Beach Family Farmhouse B&B

We are nestled between two beaches

It is just a two-minute walk in one direction to the breath-taking Ross Beach. This beach has been awarded blue flag status and is number one in the top beaches in North Mayo. You will really be amazed by the natural beauty and unspoiled environment that this beach has to offer. It has free parking, showers, toilets, and picnic benches to enjoy lunch or any snack with your family. It is also supervised by lifeguards during summer months. This beach is an enjoyable and safe place to bring children, they will have great fun paddling in the bathing section, playing in the sand, collecting seashells, making sandcastles and exploring the many rock pools. On summer days children love the ice-cream van or even the crepe van. Ross Beach is excellent for swimming and other water sports and is a safe place for you and your family to enjoy.

On the other hand, we are also located beside a more private beach. Just a two-minute walk in the opposite direction from our B&B, will take you to this hidden away treasure, which is home to many interesting migratory birds from the polar regions. One of the most impressive things is the walk to the beach as you get to view lots of farm animals and wildlife. As you travel through the sand dunes, one of the nicest views is of the freshwater lake where you can catch sight of wild geese, ducks and swans, this is even before you reach the beach. Upon reaching the beach you can decide on the direction you want to take, by going right you get to see some of the most wonderful and unique rocks and shells. If you choose to go left you can walk for miles and miles with just you, the sand and the water. It is really one of the nicest things you could come across and something you don’t want to miss out on.
