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 home was perfect! We had a total of 6 adults and 2 kids staying in the house and 2 adults and 2 kids staying in the barn. Karla was an amazing hostess! Very communicative and helpful. Her home was extremely clean and perfectly located near Main Street, so we were able to walk to pick up anything we needed. Everyone we met in the village was so nice and friendly. Karla provided so much helpful information and her home had everything we needed. My nephew got married at Slane Castle and it was only a 15 minute car ride away; except when we were stopped because cows were crossing the road! That added another 5-10 minutes, but that’s Ireland!!! I could go on and on about Karla, her beautiful home and Duleek, but this was the BEST Airbnb we have ever experienced!

If you are looking for the perfect Airbnb experience this is it. The barn is beautiful and much nicer than the pictures. It is beautifully laid out and the extra touches were very welcome, such as locally made soap, shampoo, conditioner etc. As well as tea, coffee, biscuits and nibbles. I particularly loved the book charting the renovation of the house & barn. What vision Karla had to transform it to its current state. 5 stars all the way. Loved it.

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.

Pauline, UK - Connell’s Barn

Spent a wonderful week at Connell’s House. All aspects from booking to leaving were perfect. Karla is a marvellous hostess, she responds quickly, she's very friendly and helpful, but not intrusive at all. The house is a delight, spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable. Lovely toiletries and a great welcome pack to greet us. Thank you Karla.

Ann, Wales - COnnell's House

Amazing place to stay about 40 minutes from Dublin city by car. Nice little town and very close to the Newgrange, an amazing World Heritage site. Karla has thought about everything and left nothing to chance. Great property. Thanks so much, we’ll be back!
