Monthly Rentals in Dowth

This is a magical place in every detail. The location is unbelievable. Set your alarm for dawn for a spectacular view over Newgrange. The whole place is better than I imagined, don’t miss the peacocks or the river! Live out your cottage countryside fantasy or finish your novel (I did). The Airbnb is the old school type that’s hard to find nowadays. Everything is chill and the hosts are friendly and helpful. It’s not a hotel or b&b and there is no staff just people opening up their home. You cook your own food in the amazing kitchen, pick up your supplies in Slane before arriving at the local butcher and veg shop. I’ll definitely come back.

Couldn’t fault Mick and Rosie’s place at all. Lovely spacious place with a full kitchen and living room which had a pool table and tv. We were greeted by Rosie and she was so lovely !! Went up to the place and they had a lovely basket of food ,biscuits, tea and coffee. Wound definitely recommend if you’re looking for a private, peaceful stay. Only a ten minute drive from slane and half an hour from Dublin.

The house is spotless and free of clutter, great bar and food right beside the house. Very easy check in and a very helpful host, will definitely be back. Fergus was very kind to organise lifts for us which was great.

PROS> cosy interior. private. access to lots of land and public walks at the front door. Decor that doesn't get boring. lots of things to do within a short drive. Good restaurants, cafes and takaways within short drives. pet friendly. picturesque beauty in all directions. CONS> no central heating system so it's cold (we stayed in April) there is an Aga cooker and Wood burner downstairs electricheaters in the bedrooms once they all get going its not bad, the bathroom is baltic nothing you can do about it. it does say on the listing that there is no washing machine and dishwasher but I'd like to come again and stay for longer and I think this is a must especially for the price. also its very cluttered with old condiments in the kitchen they need all thrown out. the patio could do with a brushing and tidy up. plus there is an old bath tub sitting in the bush up beside the pink chair. lastly the fridge and frezzer is too small if staying for a week.
