Rathgillen House

Nice big house for our group.

Big and spacious suitable for a large family

Bit remote definitely need a car

Good communication with host. Flexible to our requests.

Very spacious and spotless clean. They had tea/coffee sugar etc in for us. Stove was such a comfort to us while all sitting around having our chart. Nothing was too much for Peter to help us out. Lovely friendly host.plenty of towels provided for our showers.

Nothing very spacious for our stay.

Pleasant rural place near a Greenway.

Some dishes and utensils were not clean. Facilities are a bit tired and pricey.

The property was advised as a 4 bedroom but when we arrived there was only 3 bedrooms.

The house is very big, there is a lot of space. The kitchen is filled with dishes. The rooms were clean.

Spacious and well maintained

Spacious house. Quiet location.

Beautiful location, very quiet. house was lovely, warm & clean. Delighted to see the stove stacked ready to be lit with enough firewood put out for us if needed. Was a little late checking out but host was very understanding.

The location was perfect. Peter met us at the property with the keys. Gave us a tour explained everything that we needed to know and told us that he lived on the farm if we needed anything. Patch their friendly dog sat outside the lodge sunbathing like a guard dog. The scenery was beautiful. We visited Ireland to attend a wedding at Cabra castle that was only 20 minutes away. The lodge is very spacious even has a piano in the lounge that my granddaughter had a little go on. We would definitely stay there again.

Nothing

Location was stunning & peaceful...we booked here as we had a wedding to go too at cabra castle so arrived the day before to save us the drive (over 200miles) down on the morning. We chilled out & got a takeaway delivered...would definitely go back again

Spacious and bright, nice country location

Mouse seen in kitchen one night, kettle full of limescale

Loved how big the house was .it was our daughters wedding so it was brilliant for night before the wedding.it would be great for a group of friends who just wanted to chill

Host very pleasant and friendly.

The positioning of the house with nice views.

Nothing.

Peter was lovely and came to greet us and show us around the property, great space if you had a few people staying, everything you need was in kitchen and towels provided for showers

The house is beautiful 😍. Everything you need. Host was very accommodating. Lovely spot quiet peaceful.still close to village. 5* we were a group of friends very good sleeping arrangements. Bathroom in every room. Very clean. Very homely.

Everything was perfect 👌

Location was perfect. Road leading up to the property and away from main road. Lovely picturesque view surrounding the property. Very spacious as we were a group of 7 adults so everyone was happy with their rooms, bathrooms and lounge area to chill. Lovely well stocked kitchen too. The owner was very welcoming and showed us around the property when we arrived. Owner's dog stayed close by during our stay which was nice. We were attending a family wedding at The Cabra Castle Hotel so it was very convenient for us. It was nice to have the space to unwind after the wedding. We had a really nice stay and would highly recommend it. Definitely would like to come back some day and explore the surrounding areas.

One drawback was the showers downstairs didn't have hot water so we shared the upstairs ensuite shower between us.

Everything about Rathgillan House was brilliant, clean, warm, spacious, location.

Absolutely nothing to dislike about this place

The property was beautiful & lovely country charm. Peter the host was very friendly & welcoming to us & shared his family history of the farm. We travelled with our family including grandparents & children & the accommodation suited us all. Thank you Peter, we loved our stay with you.

It was in a beautiful location in the country and a very spacious house for all our guests. Peter is an excellent host and ensured we were comfortable on our stay.

The house was a beautiful farmhouse. Lovely furnishings, ample room for our group of 4 who needed 4 seperate bedrooms. Peter was most welcoming and helped us acclimate to the house and surrounding area.

We were ther during a chilly spell and could have had a little more heat.

Great size, facilities, comfortable beds.

The place itself is absolutely gorgeous, I couldn’t name a fault.

Absolutely lovely little spot! Peter was super friendly and helpful. The place had plenty of space and it was the perfect temperature and nice and tidy. We even had plenty of visits from the family dog who is so cute and friendly and cows greeting us at the window in the morning.

Can't fault the place other than a few cobwebs which is to be expected on a farm stay, but didn't bother us 😊

Property was perfect. Hosts were so nice and helpful also. My family loved it. Wet relaxing place to stay 5stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The house very spacious and staff very helpful

It was a bit dusty

Owner Peter was very helpful and warm person. He told us about the history and left us to enjoy our stay. He came to say goodbye and it was a delight stying in the Lodge. Patch the dog came to visit and we threw him his ball.

Nothing

So much space and Peter provides as much information as you want about the surrounding attractions

Very unique and local. Peter and Patches the dog were spot on. Barman in Keoghans and girl in chipper really friendly. Great little Shraidbhaile.

Zero

Had all the essentials for our stay. Clean and well maintained. Would be good for a large family stay.

A little bit isolated by location. Windows upstairs rattle a bit during high winds.

It was mostly great! The host is incredibly attentive and will do whatever it takes to make your stay very comfortable. There is enough room for everyone and a good living space that accommodates all guests. The WiFi is good, the kitchen is large, and you coil definitely cook and spend as much time as you want there.

There is this one thing the property needs to work on. It’s a big deal though. The sewer is on a septic tank and the smell seeps through the rooms. On our second night, the house was unbearable because the smell was so bad. I didn’t know how to contact the host at that time but it was sooooo stinky. I wouldn’t stay there again unless the sewer system was fixed somehow.

It was very spacious and the beds were so comfortable. Everything u needed was there. Loved the fire...it was a real asset as the weather was miserable. Peter was lovely and friendly

The shower was not very warm and the shower head wasn't working properly

Peter the host was very friendly and full of information. Lots of space, we were a group of 8 and had plenty of room. The house was nice and comfortable with the heating setting just perfect.

If i was being picky, to access on of the bedrooms, you walk through another bedroom. But being a family, it was no problem for us.

It was a lovely, spacious cottage.

Great conditions, nice and warm place.

Coffee machine didn’t work

The location was beautiful the wood burning stove and a real homely touch.

Plenty of room, very friendly hosts, lovely dog (patch), toys and books there for the kids. Animals in they yard to see.

Nothing.

Very comfortable and plenty of space

The lodge is a bit close to the house. Very conscious of the family staying there

House was really spacious, and comfortable for our big family.

NA

Lots of room We were group 8 Lots seats tables sitting room comfortable Very bright lots windows

One bed upstairs double couple mentioned pillows were lumpy need replacing

lovely big house plenty of space well stocked with cutlery plates a few pans for self catering and casserole dishes. lovely to find a few cupboard staples too including toilet roll

a few more pans for cooking as no big ones and only one frying pan which is not ideal when cooking large volumes for a big group

Fabulous house. Twelve of us stayed there this weekend for a family occasion nearby and it was an amazing place to be. An extremely spacious house with plenty of room for us all. Warm and clean with everything we could have needed and we will definitely stay again. We would highly recommend this house and thanks to Peter, a very friendly and helpful host.

Nothing

Peter, the host, was very personable.

What a fantastic place to stay! We were blown away by the size of the accommodation, the friendliness of Peter and the value for money at this property. We stayed here to attend a wedding in Cabra Castle and it was fantastic. We easily got a taxi home from the wedding and it was lovely to come back to! Peter met us when we arrived and was so warm and welcoming! The place was spotless and would highly recommend Rathgillen House for a stay.

Location brilliant.The host Peter was so helpful

Nothing

location , size , beautiful house and scenery

nothing

Absolutely fantastic property. Farm house very well equipped and everything very clean and comfortable. Peter was an amazing host and nothing was too much trouble! He definitely went above and beyond when anything was asked of him. We would definitely return 😃

Beautiful property and location. we loved being together as a family, and even got to light a fire during the cold evening hours. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms plentiful and both bathrooms and kitchen had what we needed. it was a treat to be here.

The property, though worth it, was further from the village of Kells than we had anticipated. However, it was worth the stay. we were worried about charging our electric vehicle, and Peter found a way to help.

Rathgillen House was even better than its description. We had 6 adults and 2 young children, and the house was spacious and comfortable for all of us. Our grandson loved the toys! Peter, the owner, was wonderful. He personally welcomed us, answered our questions, and suggested a great place for dinner- Cross Guns. When we mistakenly went over our time the next morning, he was gracious and gave us a little more time to leave. It was a pleasure to meet him!

Nothing.

When I saw the fireplace I was very happy, fire was even set for us. The tables even had Christmas table cloths and a Christmas tree was up in the living room

Only minor detail was my bed was exceptionally noisy when I moved slightly think it was because it was wood on a wood floor.

we had such a lovely time, it was so comfortable and so well equipped for our family. With a cot, highchair and toys for the kids we couldn’t ask for more.

Great value, warm and comfortable! No complaints.

Peter the owner of the property was so kind and helpful . when we arrived at property he was waiting with his lovely dog to greet us and had the house nice and warm as the evening was very cold , He showed us around the house and stayed and and advised where to eat and if we didn’t wish to go out we could order in . we found him to be very interesting in helping us to settle in . In the morning we were leaving he arrived for a chat and too see if everything was ok . This is what you call real Irish Hospitality. Thanks Peter . Rose Brendan , Joe Bridget , Frank & Bridget .

large plenty of car parking lots of bathroom facilities

decor a little dated

Gorgeous house in the middle of the countryside. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. Very close to a lovely little town, locals are all very friendly!
