You will love staying at Hen House, it is a very warm and friendly place to stay with the ability to get out walk on the farm and in the woods. Your are close to Dublin, 20 minutes, as well as Ashbourne, 5 minutes, and there are so many wonderful things to do and see in the area. We never drove more than 3 hours to go to any of the sites that we visited in Ireland. Which included, Cork, Cliffs of Mohr, Galway, Cong, Slain, Newgrange and Carlingsford. Ciaran is such a wonderful host and we were welcomed with Coffee and Scones and a wonderful place to stay in. You'll not be disappointed with your stay here if you love the country.
