What our guests think

Karla was a fantastic host who went above and beyond to make sure we had a clean, comfortable place to stay. The barn was sparkling clean upon arrival, and we could not get over how beautifully it was decorated. Karla provided everything we needed, from fresh towels, to handmade soaps, to snacks on the table & milk in the fridge upon our arrival. She was willing to accommodate the needs of our children by providing a baby cot, baby gate, high chair and plenty of toys. She left plenty of information regarding restaurant and grocery store recommendations, and also things to do around town/in neighboring towns. You can tell that Karla cares about her guests and wants them to enjoy their time in Ireland. We stayed at five different places during our visit, and this was our favorite by far! We can’t wait to visit again one day. Thanks, Karla, for your wonderful hospitality!

Karly, USA - Connell’s Barn

Connell’s Barn is a lovely place to stay. We stayed 4 nights, it was perfect for our day trips to Newgrange & Knowth, the Wicklow Mountains, Trim Castle, Loughcrew Cairns, Howth, and Dublin city. The Barn was so clean and comfortable. Karla had a very organised and helpful box file in the Barn with local attractions and maps. The Tribe Restaurant was a superb recommendation from Karla, we had excellent food and a pleasant conversation with one of the owners of this old converted church!

This house is amazing, even the pictures dont do it justice. My family and I fell in love with the property, so much so we stayed an extra night. I cant think of anywhere else I'd want to propose to my now fiance, it was perfect. The host is a pleasure to deal with and has left no stone unturned. Thanks so much, we'll be back.

Donal, Ireland - Connell’s House

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

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!
