What our guests think

We were incredibly happy with our stay at Connell's House! It is superbly comfortable, beautifully decorated, warm, spacious, immaculately clean and has everything you can think is provided! We loved the spacious kitchen and the big table; the incredibly comfy living room with its soft couches, wonderful sense of space and cosiness. Each one of the bedrooms were glorious with utterly blissful beds. The garden and picnic tables outside are so lovely too. Fluffy towels, glorious shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, as much cookware as you could ever need, soft lights in every room, and a rapidly responsive heating system. Everyone had their own beautiful bathroom and a big deep bath for the restful soak! The creativity, consideration and intelligence, with which this house has been renovated is absolutely world class and we would love if Karla would take on another such project and bring more of our precious heritage back to life! May you enjoy your stay at Connell's House as much as we did! Thank you so much Karla!

Mary, Ireland - 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

Karla is hands down the best hostess we have ever had at an Airbnb. Her home was in pristine condition and had everything we needed for our family of four. Our kids loved the toys, the garden area and the sleeping arrangements, with beautiful white bed linen. We absolutely loved Duleek and exploring the surrounding areas. We will definitely be back one day soon, thank you Karla for being a wonderful host!

Connell's House is a gorgeous renovated cottage, a home from home. It was immaculately presented with lots of toys for our son to play with and well equipped for children. The board games were great fun too. We had a meal in the Lime Kiln upon Karla's many recommendations and the food was fabulous. We also had takeaway pizza from Tribe, which is literally right next door! Great location - close to Tayto Park, Drogheda, Newgrange, beaches, Dublin city and airport. I would highly recommend Connell’s House for your Irish vacation!

Alison, Canada - 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!
