Thus property was exactly what we were looking for in the wicklow mountains. Its convenient loction to dublin made it an easy pick. The stay wqs grat, lots of room, fantastic outside space, beds were numerous in every room and each one had a full bath.
I was traveling with friends and family for my 50th. This place was perfect for our group. The only thing that could make it better would be maybe a how-to guide to the house and maybe a list of local restaurants/pubs/markets in the area.
This is a fabulous property if you want to really switch off - it has a very cosy and relaxing vibe. Beds and sofas & chairs are all very comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. Showers and bathrooms are excellent also.
The only slight negative is that the WiFi is a bit slow and unstable, but perhaps this actually helps “switching off” and relaxing more!!
We will definitely back - thank you Pete & Una!

Had a great time at the property and made many wonderful memories. Una was great and very responsive. The outside area was an added benefit to share a fire and some drinks and laughs at the end of the day. Absolutely outstanding

Good base for Wicklow
Good base for Wicklow. Comfy beds, rooms good sizes.
This was the perfect location. Perfect configuration of rooms, each bedroom has a bathroom…perfect outdoor space…wonderful kitchen… it worked for our family. Over a 33 day period we had 18 people, ranging from 5 yrs old to adults staying with us in the house. The most we had at one time was 10....the house could certainly handle it. Una, Pete, and son Luke are the greatest hosts....prompt answers to questions always. The Wicklow area has so many things to do, enjoy, and take in. Already figuring out how to do it again. You won't be disappointed if you book this house!
Wow. This place is just perfect. A beautifully designed, super comfortable, well equipped home from home. We loved every minute of our stay here and had everything we needed. The host is lovely and very accommodating. We can’t wait to return.
Perfekte Urlaubstage in einem außergewöhnlich schönen Haus in ebenso schöner Umgebung. Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich, nett und stets hilfsbereit.
Jederzeit wieder!
Highly recommend this lovely house for a family stay. We used this location as our home base, while seeing the sites in Galway, Belfast & Dublin. You'll definitely need a car to get around. Grocery stores, cafes & restaurants close by! We enjoyed several evenings sitting around a roaring fire on their roomy patio.
The owners welcomed us very warmly and where extremely caring, bringing us some fuel for the fire and checking we knew how everything works. The property is superb, very comfortable and on a great location, with a nice private set up to allow you to enjoy with friends and family
We were with 7 golfers in this magnificent house. More than enough space. Very nice kitchen and sitting-room.
All the bedrooms had their own bathroom with showers and toilets. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was very spacious. Pete and his son Luke were very friendly. A spacious house for up to 12 people.
We werden goed en gastvrij ontvangen, en hebben een duidelijke en gezellige rondleiding en uitleg gekregen. We waren met 7 personen, iedereen had dus een eigen plekje. De kamers zijn knus, gezellige en schoon. De omgeving is geweldig, en van alles voor zien. Geweldig restaurant chester beatty inn onderaan de heuvel. Met de auto of openbaar vervoer ben je zo op plek van bestemming. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. Enige minpuntje: de site doet overkomen alsof de accomodatie op een park gelegen is. Er staan foto's op van een speeltuin bijvoorbeeld, die niet aanwezig is. Het lijkt op de foto's erg aantrekelijk voor kinderen wat niet het geval was. Echter is wr op 15 min afstand aan het strand een leuke speeltuin. Verder een top verblijf gehad.
Very comfortable spacious accommodation that suited our family of 10 ,six adults and four children .We had a wonderful time exploring County Wicklow and the Lodge is centrally located and within driving distance of beach/ forest and outdoor activities for children.The hosts Una and Pete were very welcoming and available if we had any query’s ,all in all an excellent holiday ,Thanks Una and Pete for your welcome and hospitality
We as a large family had a brilliant stay at The Lodge,this is our 2nd time to stay.
There is plenty of space for us all to relax and enjoy and be together.We were celebrating my Husband's 70th Birthday . We brought board games to play and also made smores on the fire pit in the garden which we was so much fun,we danced and laughed and made great memories.The beds are so comfortable,great kitchen with all the utilities you need .we made a Sunday roast dinner and sat around the large table plenty of room for us all .
Garden space so good and the grandchildren enjoyed it.
Our host's Una & Pete are so friendly and helpful ,thank you both so much for looking after us all,it is a real pleasure to stay at your beautiful lodge and look forward to staying there again
Beautiful and unique property that catered well for all our needs. Relaxing and quiet yet close to local amenities. Lovely outdoor seating area and large dining table indoors too that we could all easily sit around (9 of us). Lots to do in area. Thank you for a great stay
A pleasure! We stayed for a week, a handful of adults and some of our young (almost adults, mainly).
The house is great, just look at the pictures. Great kitchen/living room, with a nice wood stove for the joy of it. Ashford is a great starting place for tours to the coast, e.g. to Wicklow, as well as into the mountains. Don't miss Glendalough, btw.
So we just had lots of fun, and enjoyed it. Highly suggested.
We just completed our 10 day stay and the entire family dreaded leaving! We loved the home, location, cozy yet spacious…and surrounded by beauty! It could not have been any better…kitchen had everything we needed…the absolute perfect spot to celebrate Christmas holiday!
We met here with family. We live in USA. Family lives in England and Scotland. House was great. Had everything you need. Great location. Every couple loved having their own room/bathroom. Plus there was plenty of room for our 3 year old grandson to play. Cute town. Una and Pete were great to deal with and attentive to needs.
