Just back home to England after a great 10 day holiday at Salmonquays. My wife was born in County Mayo, and we had a family holiday at Salmonquays in 2017. We are retired and met up in 2017 with my adult son and various members of my wife's family.We enjoyed that holiday, and always intended to return to this property. Time has passed and for various reasons including Covid after 7 years we returned again to holiday with family. We hope our next visit will be sooner. This property deserves some praise. It is in an ideal location, near The River Moy, close to the lovely Town of Ballina, just a few minutes drive or a bit longer walking alongside the river. Close by in the evening along the river is a pleasant walk for a meal or just a drink at the Ice House, delightful. Also a couple of other pubs nearby. There are many superb places to eat in the area. The house is ideal for a group of adults or for young family members. Spacious kitchen/ dining room, all appliances. All rooms are well equipped. A pleasant back garden with furniture. The house is in a very quiet area. The amount charged by the owner is very fair given the facilities provided. Many thanks to the owner.

I stayed at Salmon Quays last weekend (April 2017), and I must say it has been the best house we have ever stayed in. It was clean, warm and so comfortable. The area was so central and convenient. Booking was made so easy and any query leading up to my stay and even during was always dealt with promptly. My family are already planning their next return to Salmon Quays. Many thanks for such an amazing experience and the lovely memories made with my family which we will always cherish.

A spacious, well equipped house in an excellent location.We had eight adults in our group and it suited us perfectly .The price was very competitive so all in all we would stay here again.
Would I recommend this holiday rental to my best friend? Yes.
Andy
A lovely stroll walking along the river. An idea family park that kept the children occupied. The people in the town of Ballina were so friendly and helpful. Plenty of wonderful days out to Newport, Castelbar, Westport and lots of beaches. Fantastic holiday for the family. Booking again this year to have an adult holiday to enjoy the night life and golf.

Myself and 3 fishing companions visit Ballina most years for the fishing and nightlife. We first visited Ballina 12 years ago and have gone back many times to enjoy the Irish hospitality, the superb fishing and the many pubs/bars. Its a trip we always look forward to and despite not going back in 2017, we are planning a trip in 2018.
We have stayed in many of the hotels/B and B's over the years and discovered Salmon Quays last year. We booked a 5 night stay and were not disappointed. Housekeeper Geraldine made is feel at home straight away and even provided a dog walker for us whilst we were out fishing during the day. The house itself sits in a quiet estate a mile or so from the center of Ballina. Easily walk able on a pleasant summers evening. The house is modern inside with a lovely open plan kitchen/dining room layout with large sitting room. Downstairs bathroom is always a bonus. 4 bedrooms and family bathroom upstairs provide plenty of space.
Private garden out the back and parking for 2 large cars at the front complete the property. We will definitely look to book this property next year when we return to the area as it ticks every box.

The property is located in a quite residential area with large grass areas suitable for playing and is a lovely walk to the town of Ballina .. via a wonderful playground that provides hours of entertainment for the kids (close to eateries).
The approach to the development is nothing short of breath taking ... following the Moy river, the swans and heron and the fishermen and ruins of monatries away from Ballina you pass the renounded Crocketts pub (great food) and then approach the outstanding scenery and beachs of Enniscrone.
We hope to return very soon to enjoy all...sorry it was booked already May half term 2013
My family and I stayed in Salmon Quays in August 2014. The house is in a fantastic location, a lovely quiet cul de sac with a green area directly outside the house for the children to play on. It's within walking distance to some fantastic pubs and restaurants and a really great play park for the children.
The house itself is fantastically equipped, very clean and comfortable.
Paul is very helpful and it's great to deal direct with the owner if you have any last minute questions.
We look forward to our next visit!

Great house with ample equipment and very easy to manage. Owner was very helpful and supplied us with lots of information on what to do and where to eat out. Ballina itself is a delight, the locals were so friendly and the pubs and restaurants excellent, Crocketts and Murphy's especially. River views spectacular
"I would stay here again! Great for groups and children." - Ramy Sep 2015
We really enjoyed our stay. The price was right. The place had a lots of space for our 7 travelers ( me, my wife, all four of our parents, and our 2 year old). Three bathrooms, two with showers, made it a breeze to get ready for the day/night. The location was nice. Since we were traveling with elders, we opted to drive into the city center (~5 min) but could have easily walked the very scenic river route, which was maybe about a 30 min walk to city center. Our daughter LOVED the back yard, wide-open shared yards outside, and close-by park with a ton of playground features. It was a perfect mix of space/cost/distance to city center/backyard and parks. There was also easy parking for our two rental cars. For the size of our group, this place was perfect. The owner was extremely responsive to phone calls and emails as well. I think they lived just a few houses down from the rental which was extremely comforting. N.B. Ramy is from America and yard refers to Garden
