Rokeby cottage

Very spacious and peaceful.

Wifi was out of action., which was awkward in an area with limited phone signal. Plenty of appliances, it would have been even better with some more basic food preparation equipment.

Nichts.

Wir kamen in ein schmutziges Apartment. Eine Stunde vor Ankunft wurde uns mitgeteilt, dass das WLAN nicht funktioniert. Netzabdeckung gibt es dort nicht, TV lief über Internet. Kein Wlan, kein Fernsehen. Warmwasser hat nicht funktioniert. Eine der Duschen war verstopft, geputzt wurde vorher gar nicht. Überall Hundehaare auf den Sofas. Nachdem wir selbst geputzt hatten und alle Mängel reklamiert hatten, wurden wir unter Druck gesetzt, sofort das Apartment zu wechseln, ansonsten müssten wir dort bleiben. Das war uns nicht möglich. Uns wurde zugesagt, uns das gesamte Geld für den Ärger zurückzugeben, was nicht passiert ist. Booking.com.ist eingeschaltet. Schonen Sie Ihre Nerven und suchen Sie sich eine andere Unterkunft. Preis-Leistung stimmt überhaupt nicht. Matratzen sind unterirdisch unbequem. Küche sehr spartanisch ausgestattet. Lieblos und nur auf Kommerz aus.

It was a beautiful cottage thank you

Had a lovely stay for 2 nights perfect for our needs cute cottage clean in beauiful surroundings

Lovely property is great location

The area surrounding the property is fairly derelict however this suited us as for us it added to its charm

Beautiful setting, quiet & tranquil! Lovely & cosy but all conveniences there. Clean, well equipped and comfortable. Would recommend & return

Nothing

It was really quite and in a beautiful setting. Gerry answered the phone and responded to messages immediately.

No clothes rack for drying the clothes.

Great host, location, accommodation and rates.

Quiet location, it was new and clean and all the facilities you need.

The hot water wasn’t working in the first unit. The host let us move to another unit. In the second unit the hot water was better but we still had issues getting the water to a warm enough temperature.

V handy location

Very clean and modern fitments in the grounds of Rokeby Hall. Excellent showers and efficient heating Parking was easy right outside Extremely quiet location - no traffic or anything to disturb the peace Great location for visiting Bru Na Boinne, some local beaches and Drogheda. Only an hour from Dublin and Trim Castle

Beds not as comfortable as we would like - I could feel the springs Kitchen equipment is limited - needs a sieve, potato masher, potato peeler, more cutlery and at least 2 more wine glasses WIFI was excellent when it was on but it kept dropping out

Plenty of space inside and out

Few cobwebs and spots needed to be cleaned

Very clean and modern

Just lacked a few bits like mirror in the bedroom etc

Nice location , the guy that runs it was lovely, bed was comfy and very spacious

The kitchen was very dirty, benches and dishes were all dirty even this they were in cupboard , dishwasher was very dirty and badly rusted with rusty kitchen utensils still inside , washing machine smelt so bad you wouldn’t use it

Very well appointed. New renovation. Spotlessly clean and in a beautiful location. The hosts were friendly and I felt the communication was great.

Clean and presentable Near to family

The location was prefect, the house was comfortable and clean. The area was quite.

Beautiful stone cottage in a stunning setting. It was cozy, clean and warm, and we felt very comfortable there. Only the big spider on the stairs gave me quite a fright – maybe he was the guard spider keeping order in the house.

A few more cutlery and cups would be great, so we wouldn’t have to wash a spoon after every single use and a little dishwasher would be perfect – a holiday helper in the kitchen .But these are just minor details that are easily outweighed by the quality of the accommodation

Fab, quirky little cottage, all facilities we needed for a week visiting family.

There were quite a few big cobwebs in the upper ceilings in the bedrooms. The lounge/dinning area has the entryway, which is double glazed doors. But there is no curtain or anything over the door, so moving from bedroom, to bathroom etc you are totally on show to anyone walking by. It is very quiet, but backing on to the stables, there was the odd time people were walking past. Inside the shower couldve done with a proper shelf to out shampoo etc in. And the mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, this is a personal preference which you'll never get right for all visitors.

Very clean,comfortable and modern, great spot

Everything was great. Location was perfect, easy check-in, house was lovely, communication was great. Can't fault it and would recommend.

An extremely peaceful setting not too far from bars, restaurants, beaches and such, but still remote enough for that peace and tranquility we sometimes desire. The Valley Inn just down the road has the friendliest proprietor, staff, patrons and the food is just wow.. best steak I’ve ever had and I’m a fussy foodie….

No live tv channels was a minor inconvenience but the smart tv with Netflix etc as an alternative was plenty good enough.

This is our second time this year staying at Rokeby cottage and we have already booked for next year, the cottage is perfection at its finest, the grounds are private and quiet ,we are musician's that had gigs on the Friday night in drogheda which is only 18 mins from the cottage and on the Saturday night we had a gig in wexford which was only 1hr and 55mins on the motorway , the cottage is ideal with safe parking and a place to relax in luxury, with the peaceful surroundings the guys even got inspiration for a new song for our upcoming album next year , we didn't want to leave Ren marabou and the berserkers

The environment and the quietness

No public transport but the taxi drivers were very helpful and friendly

I absolutely adored our stay here. The grounds were like stepping back into the early 1800s. The views of the expansive fields framed the majestic horses…if you have a love of immersing yourself back in time, this place will make you smile! Like all old things, it is quirky. It is still a working farm and it’s trying to expand into the guest lodging world. The 2 bedroom suites are spacious and well appointed. The 2 bedrooms are separated perfectly by the kitchen, living room area, giving guests a little separation. The guest accommodations is a new venture, so don’t expect perfection but for the quality of the space and the magnificence of the property, it is 100% worth every penny and I would recommend to all my friends. Think rustic working farm with very nice self-service accommodation. Be sure to take a tour of Rokeby House next door, the grounds, gardens, and the host is happy to share the history of the property.

Horses outside on the other side of courtyard. Soft pillows. Nice showers. Good towels. Good location. Quiet and peaceful.

Some welcome items like tea and snacks can be helpful. Shower gel/shampoo would be good. More info about how to use hot water and other appliances would help.

Fab renovated cottage in remote location

Bedroom upstairs had a rafter extending out over the stairs hit head off on the way down the stairs

Quiet, isolated location. Comfortable stay. There was a fan to cool the attic room which was appreciated. Kitchen was equipped with toaster, kettle, airfryer.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. It out done all our expectations. The place and surrounding we out of this world. We will definitely book again. We would highly recommend this place and was pet friendly which was a great facility to have and that's one of the main reasons we booked. Everything was spotless and we had everything we needed for our break.

Rokeby Cottage is a lovely clean, spacious and quiet place to stay.

We actually liked that it was quite isolated, it was so peaceful and we felt so safe with our girls been able to enjoy the outside area

For our family the 2 rooms were at opposite ends of the cottage which didn’t suit our sleeping arrangements with children and so that is really nitpicking!!

What an amazing place to stay. My kids and I had an amazing time, was so peaceful and relaxing the hist were great. Would definitely book again.

Tv struggled to connect but internet was fine so used alternative.

We loved rokeby cottage ,if we were to score it out off 100 we would give it 200, it was private ,peaceful and very safe , we are musicians, we had two shows we were performing at this weekend ,one in Dublin and one in drogheda, we travel with alot off equipment ,so we needed secure parking and a peaceful environment before and after the shows, this was heaven to us ,we were so relaxed and refreshed for our shows , we travelled from Donegal and Dublin is only an hour from the cottage and gerry very kindly let us check in at 2pm on Friday ,which gave us time to relax and get to our first show in Dublin in plenty off time ,our second show was in drogheda on the Saturday which is 20 mins from the cottage, we had such a wonderful time at rokeby ,the fresh air ,animals and the knowledge that we could park our vehicles with our equipment in a safe environment made our weekend one off the best we have had ,we are back home refreshed and very happy vikings We had everything we needed in the cottage There was fresh milk in the fridge and plenty off tea and coffee , the cottage was warm and the beds were so comfortable , Thank you Rokey cottage From Ren Marabou and the berserkers

Very well equipped cottage. Clean and cosy

Better instructions on the booking for access procedures.

Nicely laid out cottage.

No hot water. TV kept losing internet connection. No mention in advert that there was building work being carried out. Door to upstairs bedroom would not close fully.

Lovely rural location yet within easy driving distance of all local attractions eg Bru na Boinne, Hill of Tara, Trim Castle, Battle of the Boyne visitor centre etc. Clean, comfortable, beautifully appointed. Quiet setting meant a great night's sleep. Dog loved it!

Maybe a dishwasher if anyone wanted to cook meals. As we were only there a short time it was fine without one.

Comfy beds and quiet rural location.

Situation close to coast and family Tucked away and peaceful Secure

Could do with more cutlery and crocks than just for 4. Otherwise no problem

Friendly host who came to meet us and show us around. An absolutely fabulous location. This place is beautiful and fascinating with real history attached to it. We will be back! Thank you :(

We stayed here for a few days as a base for Emerald Park (35mins) and Funtasia Water Park (15mins) trips. Excellent location… Lovely clean cottage. Highly recommend 👍

N/A

The cottage is wonderful, beautifully decorated and really cosy. Check in was easy and there was always someone on hand if we needed them. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again

This is a lovely farm-stay in a rural location and horses. Very relaxing.

The upstairs bedroom could benefit from a blind on the skylight..... the sun lights up the room at 7am.
