Railway Lodge
is an exceptional Bed and Breakfast country home, in the
heart of Western Ireland's Connemara mountainous region. It takes its
name
from the nearby disused Galway to Clifden railway which closed in 1936.
It
was 60 years later, in 1996, that the Lodge was built for the
proprietor,
Carmel Geoghegan, on a plot within her family's farm. Her father Paddy
bred
the famous Connemara Ponies all his life as his father did before him.
|
The spacious
interior of this carefully designed Bed and Breakfast has been
exquisitely furnished to perfectly combine modern convenience with old
Irish style. Each bedroom has modern en-suite facilities as well as
orthopaedic beds. It also has a traditional relaxed ambiance with its
two
log fires contained in antique cast iron fireplaces, polished wooden
floors, antique pine furniture and pure Irish linen.
