What our guests think

This house was out of the pages of a magazine! The entire space was beautiful with dozens of quaint and stylish touches. The furniture, the linens, the large windows bringing in light, the modern yet vintage looking appliances, every amenity needed to be comfortable…I can go on and on. The garden area outside the house was so beautiful with flowers, plants and a picnic table to sit. You can walk to the supermarket, bar and places to eat. Karla was exceptional with communicating and providing suggestions for places to eat and always available to answer any questions very quickly. I will absolutely stay here the next time I am in the Dublin area. Thank you, Karla!

Debbie, Canada - Connell’s House

When we booked Connell’s House, we had never visited Ireland, so we weren’t too sure what to expect or if this would be a good location to stay for a holiday home base. Our expectations were exceeded and then some. This home is absolutely stunning. It was very clean and Karla provides every amenity you could possibly want. It was the perfect location for our family and it offered some peace and tranquility after long days site seeing in the bigger cites. It was very convenient to drive from Dublin airport and it was easy to plan day trips from this location. Karla was an amazing host, making us feel special from the beginning, with a welcome basket of local goodies and fresh milk in the fridge, we felt right at home when we arrived. If you plan on visiting Ireland, don’t hesitate on renting Karla's home. It is stunning, functional, sparkling clean, and all around a beautiful home to call yours for your vacation. Karla responds quickly to any questions you might have and we appreciated the in depth book of recommendations for Ireland, that she has on the coffee table. We throughly enjoyed our stay in Ireland and this home just added to the beauty of that. We will definitely be coming back to stay here in the future!

Michelle, USA - Connell's House

Excellent stay and Karla was very proactive and helpful with her communication prior to check in. Lovely pristine cottage with everything we needed, including toys for our young son! Nice local amenities including food shops, coffee shop, takeaways, pub and restaurant within walking distance in Duleek. Only 10 minutes drive from Ballymagarvey Village, a superb wedding venue, we loved it!

JONATHAN, 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

We had a super nice time and were very impressed by the great Connell's Barn. It is furnished with a lot of attention to detail and you immediately feel super comfortable. There were even a few sweets waiting for us to greet us. Karla even came by and explained a lot of things to us and gave tips for the surroundings. The property is located in the centre of Duleek but is in a quiet spot, with direct parking. Some shops can be easily reached on foot. Great places, like a super beautiful beach, can be reached within a few minutes by car. We were very sad to go home and it was certainly not our last visit to her. Thank you for a great week in a cozy place.
