Great property, amazing host!
Our host, Eva, was incredibly responsive to every inquiry. She also had excellent recommendations on local sights for our party. The kitchen came stocked with a few niceties such as bread, croissants, butter, jam, milk and juice. Beds were quite comfortable and we enjoyed resting while watching the sheep and listening to the birds. Perfect place to stay for our first two nights in Ireland!

Hen House on the Farm/Ashbourne
The pictures were exactly what we experienced. First time using VRBO. Farm property was amazing and the attention to detail provided by the care takers was "spot on". From welcoming basket with fresh bread, jams, coffee and tea to providing amenities similar to being at home. Will be back in the future.

Perfect hidden jem
After traveling for a whole day, we were met with fresh bread, jams, milk, orange juice, tea and coffee. It was a great and thoughtful surprise for us. The Hen house had plenty of room for the 5 of us. The on site washer and dryer was a godsend for us because we were In Liverpool the week before and weren’t able to do any laundry. It is in a great location for us to day travel. It was a trip of a lifetime for us! We hope to be back within the next 10 years!

Great place to stay at the start of our trip! Our host was wonderful and so responsive, greeting us with fresh bread, jam, butter, coffee and juice. Our kiddos loved meeting the friendly farm cat on the property and walking the trails to meet the sheep (even trying to herd them themselves:)) close to Dublin and airport! Thanks again!

Short, but very nice stay.
The property was nice for our family of 5. Everything was clean and Ciaran met us when we pulled in to show us around. He also has one of the most comprehensive guides on amenities, restaraunts, things to do in the area. I wish we had more time to explore more of them.

Lovely place
Wonderful spot but we didn’t have a car and walking to town was impossible due to the narrow road. The welcome basket on arrival was a lovely surprise and the host was very welcoming and helpful. I would certainly return there one day… with a car
