Boyne Valley

There are endless possibilities for exploring megalithic ruins, beaches and coastal paths, woodland walks and don’t forget to sample some of the delicious produce, grown right here in the Boyne Valley.

What our guests think

Karla’s property in Duleek is a lovely mix of the old and the new, tastefully decorated with attention to detail. The property is best suited for a larger group and easily accommodate the 8 adults and three young children in our group. All the instructions were clearly set out and we had no problem checking into Connell’s House. The history of the property was an added bonus and fascinating but reflective of the little touches Karla has made to make your stay both easy, comfortable and interesting. The children loved the toys and I nearly got the jigsaw puzzle finished! The property is ideally located for visiting Dublin city or the Boyne Valley historical sites. Karla was prompt with any correspondence and we appreciated the treats on arrival. Super host is well deserved as you have a gorgeous property. Thank you Karla!

Derek, UK - Connell's House

Connell’s House was the perfect place for my family and I to stay together. We were all flying in to Ireland for my wedding and Karla was so helpful and accommodating, in every way. The house was sparkling clean and so cozy, it’s a beautiful space and we’re trying to think when we can come back to stay again!

Jillian, USA - Connell’s House

Karla's home exceeded our expectations. We were a group of 8 who enjoyed our stay from the moment we walked in. The space is stylish, clean and has everything you could need. The beds are so comfortable it was like staying in a hotel. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again - everything was perfect. Thank you Karla

Orla, Ireland - Connell’s House

We had a fantastic experience staying in Karla's beautiful house. The house was immaculate and stylish with everything we needed (and more). The extra little touches eg. Milk in the fridge on arrival for a cuppa, made us feel very welcome. The bedrooms were so spacious and the beds are the most comfortable we've ever slept in! Perfect location, right in the middle of a lovely little village with shop/take aways on the doorstep, while being extremely quiet and peaceful. Fantastic value for money. Thanks Karla.

Niamh, Ireland - Connell's House

The best Airbnb ever. Thoughtful amenities, amazing host, it’s like your own slice of paradise in Duleek. It was hard to leave.

Our Recommendations

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.
