If you are looking for a quiet place to get away, relax and recharge your batteries the beautifully converted coach house is the place for you. Located in a beautifully, scenic part of Ireland on the Carlow/Kildare/Wicklow border, overlooking Mount Leinster, Rings Coach House Retreat is the perfect destination for a retreat of any kind. Or simply a good place to stop if you are travelling around and visiting the area. Set on 2 acres of mature garden with magnificent old trees, the former Rectory was built in the early 1800s. The coach houses have been renovated, decorated and furnished to make you feel at home and enable you to enjoy the peaceful surroundings
Hi, I'm Annette and I'm delighted to welcome you to stay at our beautiful home. I have travelled lots myself and know how important it can be to find the right place to stay when away from home. I place a very high value on making sure my guests have the best possible stay and feel comfortable here. I speak both German and Spanish, with a little bit of French, Italian and Portuguese.
Rathvilly is a small, picturesque village, located on the River Slaney. We are based in County Carlow, very near the Wicklow border with stunning views of the nearby Wicklow mountains. We are very near parts of the Wicklow Way for walking enthusiasts. There is a large equestrian centre just beside us and of course the Slaney is well known for fishing. Just over an hour from Dublin, and less than an hour from Kilkenny, it is the perfect location for travelling around this part of Ireland.
