Collon House

A great experience in a house with such history and character. Highly recommend as the decor, original furnishings and charm from another age is hard to beat.

Loved this place. Michael our host was wonderful. Breakfast excellent.

From the moment we drove through the archway entrance we were in awe. We were greeted by Michael who walked us through to the mustard drawing room for plunger coffee and tea cake. Michael was happy to answer all our questions on this simply beautiful 1740s home, exquisitely furnished over many years. We stayed in the large four poster bedroom, the bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was in a closet, so quirky. Breakfast was excellent and served in the beautiful dining room with all the finery you normally see only on display in cabinets. Michael provided us with crockery so that we could sit in the alcove in the beautifully maintained gardens and enjoy a takeaway meal. A midday checkout was very welcome. We enjoyed every moment in this lovely home with charming hosts.

Wished we had stayed longer.

absolutely wonderful! a small paradise in collon, irland

It exceeded all expectations. The house is gorgeous and Michael is a wonderful host.

Gorgeous building and beyond-welcoming owners! The breakfast was big and delicious too. They were great with the dogs too.

Only one very small thing (and may have just been me!) but I came back to my room late and the blinds were pulled down for me. I don't like to sleep with blinds down so tried to get them back up but I couldn't. I wasn't sure if they were broken or I was just not able to figure it out! It was too late to call for help at that point so I was stuck with them down. Not disasterous but it meant I found it diffcult to sleep initially.

Gardens, all of the lovely different rooms and period furniture. Good breakfast also.

The toilet was a sanilav which was noisy and didn’t flush properly and was smelly.

Great base for a visit to Newgrange visitor centre. Collon House has rooms full of very interesting furniture and ornaments. The garden was fabulous.

The shower was built into a cupboard and was a bit small.
