It is a fantastic spot. Well worth stepping off the Wicklow Way and stopping in Shillelagh for a pizza, beer and accommodation in a lovely and modern room with spacious leaving area offering everything tired walkers may possibly need (including foot spa :) ). The decor is very tasteful, attention to detail is obvious and all the small things give the place unique atmosphere.
The double bed was enormous and super comfortable. We had the best sleep in days.
On top of that Sean is an excellent host. He is very helpful and attending. He can pick you up from the trail and drop you back the next day if needed.
He takes pictures of all the Wicklow Way walker and displaying them on the wall so if you would like to be immortalized in the Wicklow Hall of Fame this is your opportunity.
I couldn`t recommend it more.
