쿨라케이 하우스(Coolakay House)

Excellent service, Yvonne was such a lovely host and getting to feed the horses was a highlight of my stay.

Our stay here was far too short: Yvonne has a heart of gold and the whole house radiates this warmth. You immediately felt welcome, cosy and comfortable! The rooms were lovingly furnished, the food was wonderful and the view and location eere fantastic. You go on holiday here and have a great time! Thank you, dear hostess, and best wishes from Germany from Bernd, Ben und Sabine!

We loved, loved our stay at Coolakay House! Yvonne and Robert were exceptional hosts and could not have been more wonderful and accommodating. The Coolakay House is situated on a working sheep farm with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. You can walk up the steep hill through the sheep pasture to a bench at the top with a panoramic view of Sugarloaf Mountain and Powerscourt and the Wicklow Mountains. My husband and I were fortunate to get a tour of the Heritage Center with Robert where we learned about the history of the farming in the area and got to see many old farm tools from the 1700s and 1800s as well as many beautiful restored tractors. We had wonderful lively funny conversations with both Robert and Yvonne! Our room was beautiful, pristine and had very comfortable beds and a great shower. Yvonne prepared a wonderful breakfast and gave us tips on what to visit. We saw the Powerscourt waterfall, Bray Beach and the Wicklow Mountains, and these were all highlights of our trip. Thank you Yvonne and Robert for a wonderful stay at your exceptional home and B&B and allowing us to experience the wonder of the Coolakay Heritage Center. If we are fortunate to travel to Ireland again, we will definitely look forward to seeing you again!

For: Excellent host, very helpful and friendly. Ideal location to tour Wicklow. Comfy rooms. Tea coffee etc accessible in breakfast room 24/7. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast. Against: Rushed to choose breakfast, Do no like sharing a table at breakfast.

Yvonne and Robert are the most pleasant and welcoming hosts. Their property and the overall experience was fantastic! The weather was absolutely perfect and I highly recommend that you walk up the hill to the peak of their property where you can see the Powerscourt Waterfall to the left, and the Irish Sea (Bray Beach) to the right. The room and attached bathroom was super clean & fresh, and the bed was very comfortable. We also enjoyed feeding their 3 Shetland ponies and visiting their Heritage Center. Also, although you are in the Irish country, you are able to travel by car about 2.5 miles away to Enniskerry, where there are a few pubs, local restaurants and shops. Over all experience 10!

They have 13 rooms. Located ~5km from town, where there are a couple pubs and restaurants. Walk is on a busy street, sometimes with no sidewalk. Friendly hosts. Highlight might be that this is a working farm and the owner has an amazing collection of historic farm implements. This alone is reason to stay here. Be sure to plan an hour for the host to walk you thru a show-and-tell of his collection.

After landing in Dublin, we made our way to Wicklow for our first night’s stay in The Emerald Isle! Yvonne greeted us upon our arrival, and she treated us like family from the moment she met us. She is so warm and welcoming! The Coolakay House is located amongst rolling hills and there are picturesque views surrounding this little B&B! It was a great way to start out trip! I would definitely recommend this B&B for anyone traveling through Wicklow on their journey through Ireland. The rooms were tidy, the beds were comfortable, and the full Irish breakfast was amazing! Thanks again Yvonne for such a great stay!

My sons and I spent a couple of days there and were delightfully entertained by the owners. Visiting with Robert and having him give a tour of their amazing Agricultural Heritage Center that is their private collection. And you have to climb up the hill to the bench overlooking the 360 degree view of Powerscourt falls and the Bay of Bray. And their food was wonderful!

Just want to put it out there, that Coolakay House B & B, is a Very, Very, Very Pleasant Place to Stay!!! Wonderful Service, Clean Rooms-(very Cutely Decorated)!!!!!! Yvonne, the Owner, goes out of her way to make us feel at home! Thank You Yvonne
