The Coach house of Durhamstown Castle
This is the front of the coach house. Stone built, with metal diamond pane windows, original to the courtyard. The steps are leading up to a loft with an old fireplace. It’s part of a medieval complex of buildings with various additions through the centuries. The original Norman tower which is now incorporated into the Castle & is available to rent through VRBO as The Medieval Bolthole, the Castle itself, The Great Barn & the Coachhouse which is a very sweet little place and “country”!
The space People react very warmly to it! The wooden staircase rising out of the living room is typical of this kind of old Irish country cottage. The dresser although not very old, was the main piece of furniture in an Irish Country kitchen. It had shelves, drawers and cupboards - all in one. It has excellent Wi-Fi, a kitchen, bathroom with a separate shower & a bath. Two king-size beds. Logs are supplied for heating.
Guest access A car is required as we don’t have buses out here. There is plenty of parking as the courtyard is large. But there is a good bus service from Navan.
Other things to note There may be other guests staying in the Castle - or us - No loud boogieing after midnight!
The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Housekeeping is available on request.

Exceeded expectations
We had a wonderful stay. Our Carriage House was fantastic. The grounds were beautiful with blooming flowers, shrubs and trees. We arrived and was greeted by Dave with a warm fire in the fireplace. Dave and Sue were quick to resond to any of our messages. I hope we are welcome back.

Absolutely wonderful
We had the best time staying in the coach house at Durhamstown. It was charming, comfortable, and the best fun for our kids. They loved exploring the property and sharing their adventures with us. The hosts were incredibly kind. Dave showed us around the castle and welcomed us, and he and Sue had us over for a lovely evening after dinner one night. Navan is a charming town and we loved being close to the Hill of Tara and Newgrange, but also having easy access to Dublin. Can’t recommend this place enough - thank you!

Fijn verblijf
Vorige week 3 nachten in het koetshuis verbleven. Toen we aankwamen was men verbaasd, ze hadden ons niet verwacht. We waren een van de eerste die geboekt hadden via vrbo (eerder altijd alleen via een andere site). Er was het weekend een bruikoft geweest en de laatste gasten waren die ochtend vertrokken. Sue bood haar verontschuldigen aan en ging zo anwl mogelijk iemand regelen om te komen poetsen. Ze zou ons bellen als het koetshuis klaar was. Na ongeveer 2-3- uur belde zij en konden we inchecken. Het koetshuis was schoon en opgeruimd. We hebben heerlijke dagen gehad en veel vannde omgevingkunne zien. .
