The chalet is fully adapted to meet the needs of those with disabilities, including Motor Neurone Disease and although available to anyone who wishes to use it, our chalet can be booked for free for the first time within a 12-month period by anyone living with MND in the U.K, with priority given to people living in Scotland.
The holiday park lies adjacent to the beach at Ardmucknish Bay and it offers views down the Firth of Lorn, with the island of Kerrera and Mull filling the horizon. You can drive your van or car on to the beach for easier access; just turn right out of Tralee Bay Holiday Park and drive along the road about 300 metres and take the second right onto a small track road. There is a gate to go through which must be opened and shut again once the car is through. The path then leads to a small gravel ‘car park’ which drifts on to beach.
Tralee Bay is a Scottish Tourist Board 5 Star Holiday Park. Facilities include a children’s play area, mini golf, launderette, nearby forest walks, and Tralee’s popular Rally Karting Centre is close by.
There are also lots of nearby attractions.
Allan Bar, diagnosed with MND in 2003, visited the Tralee Bay Chalet and thoughtfully provided us with this short review for other people with MND.

If you have MND, or are booking for someone with MND, and live in the UK, your first booking within a 12-month period is free, and for your second booking within a 12-month period you will receive a 50% discount. Subsequent bookings within a 12-month period will be charged at full price, and if you are affected by MND and live in Scotland, you may be able to apply for a ‘Time Out Grant’ from MND Scotland to put towards these costs. Once you have requested dates using our booking system below, a member of our team will be in touch to confirm your price or free stay.
Although available to anyone who wishes to use it, people with MND in Scotland will be given booking priority. This means, if no one on your trip has MND and if someone on your trip does have MND but doesn't live in Scotland, you can only book our accommodation 4 weeks in advance of your stay. Bookings are not final until a confirmation email has been sent from our team.
