    “The Lodge had more than ample space for our needs and was well laid out.”

    It was warm and comfortable. Beds were great and all facilities working well. We like to walk and visit places of interest and John was very helpful with info on the locality and beyond. He and Jacinta were very personable and hospitable.

The property

A former cow shed resting within the grounds of the impressive Raheengraney House, on the outskirts of the bustling village of Clonegal in Ireland's County Wicklow.

This all-ground-floor accommodation offers a wonderful base for exploring this region surrounded by majestic mountains and dramatic valleys, promising to be a tranquil retreat for families, friends and couples.

Look forward to relaxing into your evening within the open-plan living room where you will find everything you could possibly need to enjoy a week-long break with your loved ones.

This space boasts high vaulted ceilings, a refreshing colour palette and the patio doors flood natural light into the space.

The well-equipped kitchen is certain to entice any budding chefs to cater a delicious evening meal for the whole family before you settle down to enjoy a sociable evening at the dining table as you tuck into your meal.

After dinner, sink into the sofa and tune into the TV, whilst the woodburning stove fills the room with warmth during a winter’s evening.

If you are visiting during the summer months however, look forward to throwing open the patio doors to spend time enjoying a spot of alfresco dining or a glass of wine as the evening draws to a close.

Alternatively, relax in the sauna, after a long day’s walk on the Wicklow Way, or cycling the Nine Stones Cycle Route.

The interior is completed by three well-presented bedrooms, comprising of a king-size double with an en-suite shower and a king-size double bedroom which shares a Jack-and-Jill en-suite shower with a twin bedroom, ensuring a flexible sleeping arrangement to suit the needs of your group.

For a day out in the local area, the villages of Clonegal, Shillelagh and Carnew are lovely places all withing 15 minutes drive and surrounded by beautiful rolling hills, oak forests and fantastic vistas.

The Lodge is a superb base for exploring this picturesque location.

About the location

RAHEENGRANEY, COUNTY WICKLOW

Clonegal 3.5 miles

Clonegal on the border of Counties Wicklow, Carlow and Wexford received the accolade of Ireland’s tidiest village in the 2014 and 2015 Tidy Towns Awards and is well worth a visit for its stunning planting and colourful flower displays. The village of Cluain na nGall, or in English, “the Meadow of the Stranger” is set in a valley between the Blackstairs and Wicklow Mountains, straddling the meeting place of the rivers Slaney and Derry where the counties Carlow, Wicklow and Wexford meet. The mountains, the valleys and the rivers, the fishing and the shooting facilities have made this village a favourite stopping place over the years. It is often referred to as the “Switzerland of Ireland” for its outstanding natural beauty. With a backdrop of tree clad hills and abundant wild and bird life centred on its picturesque river; Clonegal is a delight to explore. On the edge of the Nine Stones Cycle Loop and marking the end of the Wicklow Way walk, there are several pubs in the village where you can enjoy a pint before heading back home to the Lodge. Clonegal’s multi-award winning Sha-Roe bistro continues to wow visitors with its simple and elegant approach to food and has been listed in the “Bib Gourmand” Michelin Guide 2008 – 2017.
Other local attractions include Altamont Gardens and Huntington Castle, voted one of Ireland’s top 20 Hidden Gems by The Guardian in March 2015 is set in over 160 acres of gardens, woodland and farmland. The castle features a fascinating guided tour which explains its 17th century history and the gardens are well worth a visit in their own right and were mainly laid out in the 17th century by the Esmondes who built Huntington Castle in 1625. They include the French limes on the avenue as well as the formal lawns to the side of the house, fishponds on either side of the centre walk and the yew tree walk, It is alleged that the castle is haunted. Further afield attractions include the majestic Wicklow Mountains and the cities of Dublin (1.5 hr), Wexford (1hr) and Cork (2hrs). The nearest beach and harbour is a 40-minute drive away at the seaside holiday resort of Courtown. Further afield, you can enjoy the Blue Flag world class white sand beaches at Britas Bay (45 minutes) and Curraghcloe (50 minutes) – both well worth a visit whatever the weather
