About this cottage rental
This is the front of the coach house. Stone built, with metal diamond pane windows, original to the courtyard. The steps are leading up to a loft with an old fireplace. It’s part of a medieval complex of buildings with various additions through the centuries. The original Norman tower which is now incorporated into the Castle & is available to rent through VRBO as The Medieval Bolthole, the Castle itself, The Great Barn & the Coachhouse which is a very sweet little place and “country”!
The space
People react very warmly to it! The wooden staircase rising out of the living room is typical of this kind of old Irish country cottage. The dresser although not very old, was the main piece of furniture in an Irish Country kitchen. It had shelves, drawers and cupboards - all in one. It has excellent Wi-Fi, a kitchen, bathroom with a separate shower & a bath. Two king-size beds. Logs are supplied for heating.
Guest access
A car is required as we don’t have buses out here. There is plenty of parking as the courtyard is large.
But there is a good bus service from Navan.
Other things to note
There may be other guests staying in the Castle - or us - No loud boogieing after midnight!

Sue and Dave are the sweetest folks with the most lovely property. We ended a three week road trip at their castle and we could not have been happier. Our accommodations were comfortable, clean, and incredibly beautiful! I needed an ironing board and Sue ran one over to me. Then the iron tripped a circuit and Dave came over to show us which one to flip. My husband and I chatted with them at length one evening and they gave us a peek into the larger house. Their entire property is just gorgeous and we feel so lucky to have stayed there. We can’t wait to come back!

Sue and Dave were fantastic hosts. My parents and I had a wonderful time. The entire property is charming with gorgeous gardens which Sue was happy to walk us through. The accommodations were clean and provided everything we’d need.

Great communication from host. Host met us upon arrival and showed us around. Was a rainy and blustery day, so he had built a nice warm fire for us prior to our arrival. We enjoyed the fact that we were not close to any cities and the quiet it provided at night. Nice to walk the grounds and look at the many flowers that were blooming. Would definitely stay again!

Property was bigger & even lovelier than expected. The hosts were incredibly amenable. Would give 5 stars for comms whilst on site, lack of comms prior to check in is why I rated it 4/5We wanted a quaint and cosy escape and that’s what we got, it was fabulous with a wonderful French feel. Blessed by fabulous weather we were able to sit outside The owners were really great, they were there but not at all in our faces, they gave us a lovely guided tour of their other facilities too and effortlessly assisted us with anything we asked for (extra towels/toilet rolls etc) We were even gifted a bottle of wine on our last night which was a really nice touch. Although we’d booked for 4 guests(maximum allowed on the booking site) they didn’t hesitate to let us have an extra guest stayKitchen was a little mishmash, quaint & serviceable & lots of stuff provided but would be better if things matched a little better. A few more forks & an additional frying pan would be very helpful. The lounge was far far larger than anticipated, with a lovely well stocked fire which had been lit for us, two huge super comfy sofas & lovely day bed it was terrific Cleanliness in the upstairs area was a bit of a shock initially & let it down just a bit, very stained carpets, stained bed sheet in one room but it didn’t affect our stay or our comfort.We slept brilliantly, had a truly wonderful stay there & would not hesitate to book again Thank you Sue & Dave. We had a truly wonderful time
