Location was great and the scenery was excellent. plenty of walks in the area and close to the lakes and mountains made it an excellent location for touring.

This property is absolutely gorgeous and just a short walk to the pub down the street. The thought that the host put into the walking paths, lights, fencing, shower facilities, communal kitchen, everything was spectacular. We only wish that we could have stayed longer! Don't miss out on this place.

Sharon was very nice and accommodating. Location was just what we wanted. The room was large, bed was comfortable.

Great location. Caught the bus from Dublin to Glendalough and did not need a car. Wicklow Natl Park and nearby town of Laragh are accessible by foot. Walked to the wonderful Heather Wicklow Restaurant for dinner. Friendly staff. Quiet (though I was there during off-season). Perfect for my needs.
On Rathdrum’s main street offering free parking, the award-winning Stirabout Lane B&B provides spacious rooms, free Wi-Fi, and home-cooked breakfasts.

Laragh itself is a very small village with 3 restaurants, a small gas-station shop and a Wool garments factory outlet. We visited only one of the restaurants, because we really liked it.
Impressive landmarks and history at nearby Glendalough (2km), with a beautiful visitor centre with lots of information and a film about the history of the monastery.
We went there to walk in nature (in November!) and had good weather from sunny to some rain, and from frosty to 15 Celsius. The paths and trails are very beautiful.

The atmosphere in the hotel was both lively and relaxed, lovely staff, a bar frequented by locals, and terrific food with a wide selection and generous portions. The rooms were spacious, and the downstairs areas were comfortable and welcoming. We could have stayed a lot longer.

We got the wrong room, single instead of a twin accommodation but they sort it out for the first night and then the next day they gave us a twin room for the rest of the stay. Great and very friendly staff. The administration does a great job in training them and been visible to all. The only draw back was that we did not get our room clean during our stay, the garbage was full, we only got towels changed.

This is a perfect location for walkers & nature lovers. The views are spectacular & if you're lucky with the weather, which we were, though it was February, there are some lovely walks in the area, both short & long-distance. Very popular with tour groups & families, especially at weekends ... lots of buggies, bicycles & dogs ... something for everyone! Lovely outdoor seating areas for coffee & snacks & tasty food in restaurant. Don't forget your camera for some memorable & scenic shots during your walks. Wear comfortable footwear to really enjoy & take advantage of the lovely walks, especially around the lake , up towards the waterfall ... so much to see & enjoy ... for adults, kids, & doggies too! Will definitely return!

We have visited Laragh on three different trips to Ireland, and we are always eager to return. It is a scenically beautiful area. We love walking the trails at Glendalough amid the ancient monastic ruins, and the drive through the Wicklow Mountains is stunning. Over the years, we also have enjoyed several day trips to nearby Russborough House with its art, gardens, interesting history, and excellent restaurant. The Wicklow Heather restaurant is world class, and the cafe in the center of Laragh has excellent homemade soups and food.
Laragh is a great part of any trip to Ireland.

Laragh is just over a kilometre away from the honey pot of Glendalough which, when we were there at the weekend, was heaving with visitors. Laragh is a good place to stay because you're away from the crowds and I suspect that the dining options are better than in Glendalough. There are lots of walks into the hills from Glendalough and it is indeed a beautiful place. The long distance Wicklow Trail passes within a kilometre of Laragh. Good public transport connections either direct from Dublin by coach or by train from Wicklow and there is a bus service to connect with the trains at Wicklow.

This was a wonderful place to stay. The location so beautiful, the house was stunning, period furniture, beautiful decor, great sense of calm and peacefulness throughout it. The manager ( regretfully didn't ask her name) was great, very pleasant, good engagement with guests, so helpful and very friendly, good at her job. The Wicklow Heather restaurant adjacent to the property was perfect for dining both evening and morning. Would highly recommend Heather House and would return in a heartbeat.
We stayed for 2 nights. The hotel is in the middle of the natural park surrounded by forests and mountains. The location is exceptional. The property is very clean and the staff are very helpful. The restaurant is good however the breakfast is a let down and not up to the standards of the hotel. It is a pity that the selection of the food available is very poor and there was not even a machine that makes cappuccino. These are standards in other hotels for the rates that they charge.
Really lovely accommodation and great reception from Sharon. The room is so warm and quiet, great for a weekend trip to relax. It is a walking distance from Glendalough Park and 5min from the main part of Laragh, where you have a coffee shop and a few restaurants.
I personally loved the breakfast option being in the room, so me and my friend could have a very relaxed morning, enjoy our breakfast and get ready for a day out in nature. Would highly recommend this amazing spot :)
What a lovely hotel ! The location is perfect for visiting Glendalough park ; even though it;s on a (not overly busy ) highway , our room was quiet and peaceful - we had the windows open to the sound of a stream on the property , very nice ! Also the food was exceptional , Aunty Biddies Guinness stew was the best we've tasted in Ireland , and the service was quick and friendly . Will need a return trip I think !
He location, the nature, the nearby archeological sites, and the wonderfully helpful receptionist and caretaker Eugenio. He is the best of Spain in the best of Ireland.
