The Cowshed is a bright modern two-bedroom apartment in a refurbished stone farm building. It has a fully-fitted kitchen; and a dining and living area that opens out onto a private patio. It faces east over fields and forest on a working farm.
The hosts were very gracious and or little one enjoyed walking around the woods and getting to see a few animals. Very nice that they had a travel crib and a highchair for us to use. Ashebourne had a surprising amount of restaurants for takeout and easy access to Dublin/the airport with a rental car.
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage â it had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The location was perfect: surrounded by beautiful countryside, yet with quiet, traffic-free roads that made getting to our daily destinations easy and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!
We loved everything about our stay here and will definitely be back next time we are in Dublin. So close to the city but far enough out to feel years away from the hustle and bustle.
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was super spacious, we were greeted by a very friendly cat, buns/croissants/jams/butter/milk/OJ when we arrived, and the property was very clean. It was our favorite VRBO out of the 5 that we stayed at during our UK/Ireland vacation. Very nice caretaker, friendly dogs, great walking trail around the farm, sheep, and an easy 20-30 minute drive to Dublin. Highly recommend this one! (Just remember that the entrance is past the house, not via the main gate!)
Highly recommend! This self-service stay was impeccable. The owners were too kind and the home had everything we needed; two bedrooms, kitchen and living room/dining room combo. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the convenience of having grocery stores and restaurants within 5 minutes, while only being 25 minutes outside of Dublin.
My 9-yr old said it best: we're surrounded by life here!!
Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt fĂŒr 3 NĂ€chte. Alles war sauber, der Kontakt mit Eva sehr nett.
Der Willkommenskorb mit leckeren Brötchen, Butter, Marmelade und noch einiges mehr ist super gut angekommen...
Diese Unterkunft können wir gerne weiter empfehlen....
Ciaran and Eve were wonderful hosts! The apartment was very tidy and easy to find. Our transport was delayed and they incredibly accommodating of a midnight arrival. We were delighted to find tea and snacks waiting for us in the kitchen. The farm was easy to find and we loved exploring the trails and meeting all the animals living there. We look forward to visiting again!
Nice 2 bedroom stay with a view.. sheep and lambs out the back door. Great distance from Dublin, not too far but enough for a quiet night of sleep during St Patricks weekend. Kitchen had all we needed and the welcome goods were nice. Host was understanding with time change/dates misstep on my part.
Quiet, comfortable and nice location for our needs.
We took 25 minutes to get to Newgrange and about the same time to get to the Dublin airport for our flight home.
We were treated with a lovely basket of breakfast foods, as well.
The host has prepared an excellent and very comprehensive book of all you could need while staying in this area.
This charming cottage (the Cowshed) is in a very quiet and convenient location in Meath. The accommodations were as shown, and we had a very comfortable two-day stay. There's a beautiful forest in the back that you can wander through, and the communication with the Hosts was fantastic. I would definitely stay at the Duffy's Ballabin again.
Nette Ferienwohnung, in der NĂ€he von Dublin. Mit dem Bus kann man bequem dorthin fahren. Die Ferienwohnung war fĂŒr uns völlig ausreichend, 3 Erwachsene und 1 Kind. Die Schlafzimmer waren groĂ genug, das Wohnzimmer mit Esstisch und Sofa und Fernseher völlig ausreichend. In der KĂŒche war alles vorhanden was man braucht, es gab sogar ein BegrĂŒĂungskorb mit Brötchen, Marmelade, Butter, Milch, Saft, Kaffee undTee. Eva hat uns noch viele Tipps gegeben und alle Fragen beantwortet, die wir ĂŒber Land und Leute noch so hatten. Alles in allem fĂŒhlten wir uns bestens aufgehoben. Vielen Dank fĂŒr die schöne Zeit
We really enjoyed staying in The Cow Shed for our time in the Dublin area. Welcome basket of breakfast items was appreciated. Itâs a reasonable drive in to the city or you can take the 103 bus. We had a mi or issue with the hot water heater that was promptly and professionally resolved to our satisfaction. Friendly cat on property.
We had a great two nights on the farm! Eva was welcoming and accommodating and our kids loved the friendly cat and dogs on the property. The cowshed was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. :)
Gute Lage fĂŒr kurze Trips nach Dublin und andere SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten in der Umgebung.
Warmwasserboiler fĂŒr eine Familie etwas knapp bemessen. Sonst sehr gute Ausstattung und sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. wĂŒrde es jederzeit wieder buchen.
We had a great stay here. The place was clean and the beds were comfortable. The host is very welcoming and made us feel at home. Wish we had more time to spend in the area then we did.
It was a typical farm house that got us away from the city. You need to Uber, have a car or get a ride to town. Walking is dangerous and no bus stop close. The setting is beautiful and hosts were accommodating.
Located just outside Ashbourne, short driving distances to Slane and Dublin airport. Two bedroom self catering apartment with all amenities. Eva greeted us with a welcome basket of fresh bread, milk, juice and beverages đ
Ciaran and Eva made our stay so comfortable and welcoming. It was a great start to our Irish holiday and I would stay with them again. They answered all of our questions and were easy to contact if we needed anything. If you are looking for peaceful, country experience, this is it. Absolutely charming accommodations.
A wonderful place for families! Sheep right outside the door and lots of places to take the kids on walks. Eva was a lovely help and provided high chair. Thank you for the bread, butter, tea, coffee, juice, and milk upon arrival!
