What our guests think

We had an exceptional experience at Connell’s House & Barn. Karla was extremely helpful and the accommodation was absolutely beautiful. We had a rare family gathering with 14 of us staying in the house and barn. The buildings are beautifully restored. All the rooms are comfortable and finished beautifully. Both kitchens are very well equipped . We were fortunate to have fantastic weather and spent lots of time in the lovely garden. I would highly recommend this lovely place.

Angie, UK - Connell’s House & Barn

We had a wonderful stay at Connell's Barn. We had quite a bit of site seeing to do but ended up spending a good amount of time indoors because of how comfortable it made us feel. The place is well equipped, calm, and spacious. You’ll get to appreciate it even more, once you see the transformation it went through to get to what it is today (you can see that in the black book on the shelf by the radio). An amazing stay and highly recommended.

Lucy, France - Connell’s Barn

Our family of 5 adults and 4 children spent 2 nights at Connells House. Connells House is in a fab location, Meath is steeped in history and there is just so much to see and do within a short distance. Lots of activities and trips for families also. Connells House is so beautifully restored with the perfect blend of old and new and had all the comforts of home. The bedrooms are so utterly relaxing, we all slept great. The home is spacious and there was plenty of space for us all. Karla was flexible with our check in which was great, allowed us to get settled in a little earlier. We would all highly recommend Connells House and Karla was a fab host. Contactable at all times and communicated everything we needed. Highly recommend this beautiful house.

Emma, USA - Connell's House

We had a wonderful time at Connell House. It is beautiful, really well set up for families. I don’t think there is anything the host has not though of. The littles touches they have added just made our stay there so relaxed and comfortable. Would highly recommend it.

Suzie, USA - Connell’s House

All I can say is that if you are in this part of Ireland book this property! We were a party of five and everyone of us would book it again. Everything was excellent, so clean and cosy, and the welcome basket was a lovely touch.

To Explore

Dublin City

Dublin City is full of interesting sights and characters and makes a great day trip. The city centre has been transformed in the last 20 years. Neighbourhoods that were once run down have become gentrified with contemporary buildings and trendy shops and cafes. There are some spectacular period buildings alongside some cutting edge modern architecture. The city centre is small and easy to explore on foot, although you can hop on a tram to the Docklands or the Phoenix Park to explore further afield.
