My partner and I wanted a short weekend break to relax, however we also wanted to take our dog with us (a Newfoundland). After finding out about the decoy cottages my partner booked the Tack room for the weekend of May 10th. After an uneventful trip down from Belfast - we found the cottages without issue and settled into our... More

As a couple in our 60's and travelled extensively we had never visited Ireland or even rented a cottage before. What a delight we found. The houses were arranged around a large courtyard, very quiet and private. We stayed in the Hen House which was the perfect size for us,spacious, absolutely everything was provided, all top quality and immaculately clean... More

There were 24 of us in 5 cottages. It could not have been more perfect. When we arrived each cottage had eggs & bread waiting for us. Besides being a beautiful structure with manicured grounds, it was very safe for the 4 younger children to play. They enjoyed the 2 dogs, the play ground and and the trampoline. It is... More

Had a hen for a two day trip out to Decoy Cottages. The beds are fantastic!! The service is great and Paula who runs it, is lovely. They helped us with booking our mini bus and left us eggs, brown bread and organic milk for breakfast. We would go back again.

We were in Navan for a family vacation/wedding and stayed at Decoy Cottages. It was a pleasant surprise to find this wonderful place. Our entire family stayed there so it was a great place to gather in the evenings for dinner. The cottages are spacious, clean, quiet and very affordable. It was easy getting a cab and the town isn't... More

We went with a family group of 27 for a get together. The quality of the accommodation was superb, with very comfortable bedrooms and excellent bathrooms and very spacious kitchens. The properties we had were clean and well equipped. The owners were pleasant and helpful and the cottages are perfect for large groups. There is also a well equipped mini... More

We had a family (well 7 families in total) gathering here last weekend. We had four of the cottages and used the largest one for communal dining at night. The cottages are well speced and well equipped and it is easy to pop in from one to the other or cook in one and eat in another. There is lots... More

I visited the cottages with a group of old school friends. Due to the size of the group we stayed in 2 cottages. These cottages were beautifully sized (The Barn and The Stables), the rooms were all perfect for us as 4 couples, 4 children 2-4 and a 12yr old. The staircases were already fitted which stair gates which gave... More

This vacation house is spotlessly clean. Our bed was really comfortable! The shower was great! The kitchen was well equipped and clean! The manager was really helpful. Internet connection was spotty, as was mobile telephone connection. It is a beautiful facility for a very reasonable price. We will definitely return!
