What our guests think

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

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.

Daniel, Canada - Connell’s Barn

We travel full time and stay in Airbnbs 90% of the time. This was one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed! No problem parking right outside. There was a grocery store around the corner, a fantastic restaurant next door called TRIBE, a lovely pub on Main Street and a great Farm Cafe (Sage & Stone) only 5 minutes away by car. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Karla!

Heidi, usa - connell's barn

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

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!
