Lovely cottage
So much love is put in and arround the cottage. It‘s lovely, big and cosy. The kids loved pony Buster, the chicken, alpaca susan, the playground in and outdoors. We will come back- no doubt!

Rosemarie L., Angus, Ontario, Canada

I would love to stay there again.
The Coach House is situated in a lovely, tranquil rural area amidst several other lovely Decoy Cottages. It is ideally situated as a base to see many attractions in several counties. Paula was a gracious, helpful owner. The cottage comes well equipped but due to the roomy living room & two couches it would benefit from an end table for each couch. I would recommend the cottage to anyone visiting the region.

About the host

Hosted by Paula Irwin

Host profile image
When Conor and Paula went on a holiday to Devon in the UK in 1998, they stayed in a converted farm yard and enjoyed the experience so much that when they purchased their home in Ireland in 1999 they immediately saw the potential in the farm yard attached to their house. It wasn't until their 3 children had all started school and Paula had a bit more time on her hands theta they decided to convert the courtyard in to the beautiful development of 8 cottages that it is today.

This has been a labour of love and every detail has been carefully thought out by Conor and Paula so that now these cottages have become a haven of peace and tranquility away from the stresses of today's hectic lifestyle.

They also are a fantastic base for exploring all that Ireland's Ancient East has to offer as they are so close to the many tourist sites in the region and Dublin airport is only 30 minutes away.

Why they chose this property

Conor and Paula fell in love with this property when they moved back form the UK with their 3 small children in 1998. They spent a year restoring their own house and then in 2006 they spent 18 months renovating the courtyard to fulfil their dream or running this business from home.
