Weddings at Connell’s House & Barn

The best Airbnb ever. Thoughtful amenities, amazing host, it’s like your own slice of paradise in Duleek. It was hard to leave.

Connell’s Barn was beautiful and meticulously clean. My friend and I developed a running joke during our stay about the flawlessness of the place; pillows too fluffy, tourist info suspiciously organised, the furnishings incredulously tasteful, you get it…...Karla really went out of her way to ensure that we had everything we needed, her organisation and attention to detail was very much appreciated. We booked places on our trip with the mindset "we just need a place to sleep" but once we got to Karla's place we opted to utilise the sparkling kitchen to cook a few meals, lingered over tea, and even had a night in eating takeout on the couch. The beds were so comfy, on our first night we both slept 11 hours straight!!!

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!

We had a wonderful stay at Connell's Barn. We had quite a bit of site seeing to do but ended up spending a good amount of time indoors because of how comfortable it made us feel. The place is well equipped, calm, and spacious. You’ll get to appreciate it even more, once you see the transformation it went through to get to what it is today (you can see that in the black book on the shelf by the radio). An amazing stay and highly recommended.

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!
