Enniscoe House
Hidden among the woods at the foot of Mount Nephin is Enniscoe House, “the last Great House of North Mayo”. Enter through the white gates, go past the pink gate lodge and follow the long winding avenue through extensive parkland, to arrive at the classical Georgian family home of Susan and DJ Kellett, where stunning views of Lough Conn greet you. The family portraits, antique furniture, open fires, good food and wine all contribute to the pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The six guest bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, are luxurious and spacious and some offer wonderful views of the lake and parkland. Enniscoe House offers Bed & Breakfast, and dinner, accommodation between the 1st April and the end of October.
