Highly recommend! This self-service stay was impeccable. The owners were too kind and the home had everything we needed; two bedrooms, kitchen and living room/dining room combo. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the convenience of having grocery stores and restaurants within 5 minutes, while only being 25 minutes outside of Dublin. My 9-yr old said it best: we're surrounded by life here!!

Ciaran and Eve were wonderful hosts! The apartment was very tidy and easy to find. Our transport was delayed and they incredibly accommodating of a midnight arrival. We were delighted to find tea and snacks waiting for us in the kitchen. The farm was easy to find and we loved exploring the trails and meeting all the animals living there. We look forward to visiting again!

Nice 2 bedroom stay with a view.. sheep and lambs out the back door. Great distance from Dublin, not too far but enough for a quiet night of sleep during St Patricks weekend. Kitchen had all we needed and the welcome goods were nice. Host was understanding with time change/dates misstep on my part.

Quiet, comfortable and nice location for our needs. We took 25 minutes to get to Newgrange and about the same time to get to the Dublin airport for our flight home. We were treated with a lovely basket of breakfast foods, as well. The host has prepared an excellent and very comprehensive book of all you could need while staying in this area.

This charming cottage (the Cowshed) is in a very quiet and convenient location in Meath. The accommodations were as shown, and we had a very comfortable two-day stay. There's a beautiful forest in the back that you can wander through, and the communication with the Hosts was fantastic. I would definitely stay at the Duffy's Ballabin again.

We really enjoyed staying in The Cow Shed for our time in the Dublin area. Welcome basket of breakfast items was appreciated. It’s a reasonable drive in to the city or you can take the 103 bus. We had a mi or issue with the hot water heater that was promptly and professionally resolved to our satisfaction. Friendly cat on property.

It was a typical farm house that got us away from the city. You need to Uber, have a car or get a ride to town. Walking is dangerous and no bus stop close. The setting is beautiful and hosts were accommodating.

Located just outside Ashbourne, short driving distances to Slane and Dublin airport. Two bedroom self catering apartment with all amenities. Eva greeted us with a welcome basket of fresh bread, milk, juice and beverages 😊

Ciaran and Eva made our stay so comfortable and welcoming. It was a great start to our Irish holiday and I would stay with them again. They answered all of our questions and were easy to contact if we needed anything. If you are looking for peaceful, country experience, this is it. Absolutely charming accommodations.

We arrived to the location and we were so happy to see sheep grazing right out our door, farm cats that were cuddly and amazing and the property manager Eva had left us bread, milk, juice and crossiants! Our stay was a wonderful and comfortable stay in the ‘cow shed’ with my family loving the amenities afforded, the cleanliness and modern layout but most of all the hospitality of this great place. We took in recommendation for trying bus to Dublin, restaurants near the place and nothing disappointed! Truly a lovely place that I plan to tell all my family and friends to stay at if they ever head to Ireland! Truly a gem!!!!

We had a great stay here at the start of our Ireland trip. The tray of breads and the milk & juice in the fridge were a nice surprise, as we arrived after an overnight flight and didn’t have the energy to stop to pick up any food on our way. The place was spacious and comfortable (great beds) and well-equipped and Eva and Ciaran were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the cats and sheep!

Very clean and comfortable, and we were made to feel very welcome. This is a super convenient location if you want to be close to Dublin Airport -- an easy 20 minute drive.

This was our last stop on a tour through England, Scotland, and Ireland before heading home. We enjoyed a much needed rest before heading home and befriended 'laundry cat' while we were relaxing. We needed to pack light due to traveling by train for a portion of our journey and having a laundry facility was extremely helpful. It was a bonus to meet the very friendly farm cat while we were at it. The rooms were comfortable and the setting was peaceful. We did have to reach out to the owner to get information about how to enter the property which was concerning at first. Once we contacted them, it was very simple. Finding the driveway at night in the rain was tricky. The restaurant recommendations were spot on and the bread they left for us was a welcome treat!

Duffy's of Ballybin was the perfect place to have a home base while we explored Ireland. The location is very convenient to not only Dublin Airport, but to many of County Meath's historical sites, as well as the well used motorways around the country. Our apartment was clean and comfortable and our hosts were warm and welcoming. I highly recommend Duffy's of Ballybin as a place to stay!

Beautiful, quiet location with lovely hosts.

We stayed 2 nights. We drove in a little late the first day and we were greeted by Eva. She was very gracious and helpful. It was nice to have milk, OJ and bread stocked in the room since we had our daughter with us. The location was quiet, close to Ashbourne and not far from Dublin at all but much more peaceful. And we were able to launder our clothes which was perfect because we were about halfway through our trip. My daughter loved the animals. I would definitely stay here again if we ever make our way back to Ireland. :)
