The coastline of this section of the Wild Atlantic Way is varied and beautiful, with further unspoilt beaches at Ballyheigue and Banna Strand.

The village of Ballybunion is a mere 35 miles from the famous Killarney National Park and was the site of the first transatlantic telephone transmission made from the Marconi wireless station in 1919. Ballybunion is steeped in a rich history that can be traced back to the 14th century, when Ballybunion castle was established. In 1923 the castle came under the care of the Office of Public Works, who remain its custodians to this day. The village is also home to the Ballybunion golf course; ranked in the top ten golf courses in the world. Ballybunion is a site of great natural beauty and possesses a wide range of flora and fauna. Bird-lovers and wildlife enthusiast can often see a multitude of birds nesting and foraging including seagulls, shags, cormorants, herons and various other migratory birds. Many marine animals can be observed along the coast, such as seals, porpoises, dolphins, lobster and salmon. The waters and surrounding countryside have won the European Blue Flag award.

    Can’t believe how lucky we were to pick Moybella Lodge for our holiday. A perfect little home away from home. Fully equipped, even down to an air fryer, The setting is just wonderful, we even watch a badger run across the lawn. Ang and Maurice went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed. Trust me this little gem is definitely the place to stay if you’re exploring County Kerry.

  • Rosemary

    The lodge had everything you need, was very homely and clean, with a lovely quiet garden. Watching the birds in the garden was so relaxing. Great location for Wild Atlantic way and Ballybunion, which has lovely sandy beaches and great cliff walk. Would recommend as a quiet, relaxing base for an Irish holiday. The hosts will look after you, while also leaving you in peace to enjoy your holiday.

  • Martin

    The owners were friendly and helpful in every way. We would have no hesitation in staying there again.
