Clonleason Gate Lodge Self Catering Cottage for two County Meath. Clonleason is delighted to announce that in 2010 our gardens were nominated for the coveted An Taisce Ellison award, and in 2009 our lodge was included in The Sunday Times article entitled – 50 Cool Cottages in England and Ireland.
Located in the heart of the Boyne Valley our one bedroom self-catering riverside country cottage retreat is at the entrance to a small Georgian farmhouse. The cottage overlooks mature parkland and its garden runs down to the Tremblestown River.
Visitors will find this the ideal place to relax and unwind with little to disturb the peace and quiet but birdsong. Roses and honeysuckle scent the air in summer. The lodge, a member of Alastair Sawday’s‘Special Place to Stay in Ireland’ offers a very high degree of charm and comfort. We are within easy reach of Dublin Airport and visitors will find many fine golf courses, walks, fishing and archaeological sites of interest close by.
A warm personal welcome awaits all who come to stay with us.
The Lodge has three comfortable rooms.
The front door leads into the kitchen which is very well equipped - dishwasher, microwave, cooker, electric hob and all the necessary tools for cooking. It has a grey slate floor and pretty wallpaper. There is a cosy eating area by the window.
The Living room has a high ceiling, open fireplace and windows that overlook parkland. French doors open into a secret garden. Bookcases provide an eclectic collection of books, magazines, a mini hi-fi and a good selection of music.
The pretty double bedroom has an en suite shower room and will encourage lazy mornings. The shower room has a power shower and heated towel rail and is finished in white marble.
The shady garden is planted with sorbus and wild cherry, while the sunny rose garden which has a pretty arbour is a delight in summer and overlooks unspoilt countryside. Visitors are welcome to wander into our own garden which has been planted over the years with a mixture of native and ornamental trees and shrubs. In the little outhouse you will find garden furniture along with logs and coal which are provided free.
Our luxury self-catering cottage lies between Athboy and Kells in quiet unspoilt farming country, rural but not isolated. You will find our small road just one mile from the junction of the N52 and the R154. We, the owners live on the property. While our luxury self-catering cottage is quiet and ideally suited to rest and relaxation there are many activities and interesting things to see and do in Meath. Lake and forest walks are on our doorstep, while Loughcrew, just twenty minutes away with its beautiful gardens and passage graves built 5,000 years ago, offers more ambitious hill walking.
Visit the spectacular 4,000-year-old passage tombs at Newgrange and the recently opened earlier tombs of Knowth – both go under the Irish name of Brú na Bóinne - This World Heritage site is approximately 45 minutes drive, or you could visit the famous Battle of the Boyne site near Drogheda.
