Lovely characterful accommodation in a beautiful part of Ireland with so much to see and do in the area. Friendly, welcoming hosts who helped us enjoy our stay. Comfy beds and a logburner to make things cosy on an evening. Great place to stay, we hope to go back.

We really enjoyed our time at the Bolt-hole. It is an authentic setting, definitely took us back in time. Very comfortable beds and lots of hot water for showers. A heads-up: you need to be in the living room to access the wifi; it does not get through the thick walls! Dave was friendly and very informative and had answers to all our questions and had lots of suggestions of local places to check out.

We had a lovely stay. The history of the castle is impressive! It was perfectly located to explore this historic region. The country setting also added to our desire to relax and disconnect. Sue and her husband were delightful, full of great anecdotes. Hope to return!

Lots of Irish historic charm in this castle. Dave and Sue very friendly. No outlet in the bathroom but great water pressure in the shower. The kitchen is not very equipped to cook a lot and for coffee, it only has a French press.

Cosy accommodation

The wood burner adds to the welcoming appeal of the bolt hole, which provided comfortably accommodation for my wife and I, along with our Irish Water Spaniels. This was our second visit to Durhamstown Castle and we'd certainly stay again.

Charming and quirky 14th century building with modern upgrades. Location is great, we enjoyed n excursion to New Grange. Hosts were very responsive. The kitchen has minimal utensils if you plan to cook.

This is a lovely renovated ancient stone tower with very thick walls, flagstone floors, arched roof, etc. The renovated kitchen functions well and the bathroom and shower provide instant hot water! It is a very old building that we picked for it's character and it provided in spades. I was surprised how much light did enter the rooms, wwe didnt need the heat and usually had the door opened wide for sun and ventilation. Dave and Sue were wonderful hosts, Ruby's on-site bakery provided fresh sourdough, and evening drinks in the courtyard sun where great memories were made. It was a great spot for exploring the Ancient East area by car and bike.

Phenomenal stay. Sue and Dave could not have been more accommodating. The property is lovely and close enough to drive to everything. If you get a chance purchase a loaf of sour dough bread from their daughter’s bakery. Bed was very comfortable, water was very hot. Would definitely stay again. Lots of great things to see within a 15-30 minute drive. Thank you for everything!

The bolthole was amazing! Sue & Dave were also great! (There isn't a dryer but they offered theirs for us to use when they saw our bathing suits hanging outside!) Very friendly couple! 20 acres of land surround the area & we were able to walk around & play! Very close to Navan with a whole bunch of shops & resturants!

Leider wusste keiner etwas von unserer Ankunft und es musste erst rumtelefoniert werden. Der Gutsbesitzer war sehr nett und man konnte sich gut mit ihm unterhalten. Die Unterkunft ist recht feucht, was aufgrund des Alters der Gemäuer nicht erstaunlich ist, aber es lief ein Luftentfeuchter, der auslief. Das Geschirr war teilweise schimmlig, sodass ein großer Teil abgewaschen werden musste, bevor man es nutzen konnte. Leider ging der vorhandene Geschirrspüler nicht an. Sobald man den Stecker wieder in die Steckdose gesteckt hat, nachdem man den Geschirrspüler erstmal unter der Arbeitsplatte hervorgezogen hat, und das Programm startete, kam die Sicherung und er lief aus. Daher musste ich das schimmlige Geschirr mit Hand abwaschen. Wir hatten für zwei Erwachsene und drei Kinder gebucht. Es gab nur 2 bezogene Doppelbetten. Ein 5. Bett war nicht vorbereitet. Alles in allem war es eine Erfahrung, aber ich würde nicht nochmal dort buchen.

accueil sympathique, appartement plein de charme (en bas du chateau, il est un peu sombre). Il permet de bien visiter la région, y compris Dublin.
