Stirabout Lane B&B, hotel in Rathdrum

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.

Daphne was an incredibly lovely host who went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. She accommodated my request for a vegan breakfast without any hesitation, provided great advice for an evening meal, and would have provided me with a packed lunch as well if I had wanted. The residents lounge was a lovely area to relax and meet other guests. The property including the garden are beautiful and steeped in history. I was expecting only a simple room but it far exceeded this. The bed and room were cosy and comfortable with a very will appointed en suite. I had a wonderful view overlooking the garden and valley and was woken by the sound of the dawn chorus which was fabulous. I travel a good bit and must say that I was blown away with how amazing this place (and Daphne) was. It was reflected when talking to other repeat guests and with Daphne herself of course. If you have found this review and are undecided where to stay for your visit to Wicklow, I can truly tell you to stop searching and BOOK YOUR STAY NOW!

    We liked the fact that the Rathdrum was situated in a nice quiet even remote area of Wicklow but yet not far from Wicklow town. The hosts were nice, very helpful and the breakfast was ample. I cannot comment on the main house we were only in the breakfast room as we were in the log cabin at the rear. I would recommend the Rathdrum for a nice quiet stay in the countryside.

    Lovely village community, but nothing in the village to do.

    Lovely village community, but nothing in the village to do. It's an area where you need your own transport to get around efficiently. Also traffic in village chaotic and parking in the village is inadequate. Nevertheless it is still a nice area to stay in and visit. We do hope to go back in the near future.

    From the minute we arrived at the gate to the property, Francis appeared with her smiling face and welcomed us to Meadowbrook.It was lovely to get such a personal welcome while following all social distance guidelines..Francis had thought of everything to make the stay as comfortable as possible.The personalized welcome note and chocolates were a lovely surprise.The property is in a perfect location for exploring the wonderful Wicklow scenery and Francis was very helpful with directions .The homemade treats delivered to the doorstep were a big treat, especially after a long day sightseeing.The families 2 dogs are friendly and very quiet and add to the homely atmosphere of the property.I hope to return to Meadowbrook and stay a little longer next time.. If there were awards for Hostess 's Francis would win First Prize for her hospitality and property.

    Fairly centrally located for visiting historical attractions, or the coast. Not a big choice in eating establishments, but what they had was good. Would highly recommend “Bates” restaurant, down a charming alley. Sadly, “Avondale House”, a local attraction was closed for renovations. Do visit Glendalough!

    We stayed in one of the self catering flats. It was perfect! Garden view, washing machine, cooked and kitchen. Also 2 TVs and Netflix. Ann provided us with heaps of breakfast goodies 😋. We could not have wanted anything else. Perfect for exploring Glendalough and Wicklow Mountains region 😀 The hosts Ann and John were there for any questions but left us to enjoy the property. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough. It was perfect. Also only 2km drive from town with supermarket etc.

    I had a lovely stay in Stirabout Lane B&B the night before I had to attend a wedding last week. Daphne the owner is a gem. The room was gorgeous, clean, spacious and very luxurious. The breakfast the next morning was super and Daphne very kindly let me have a late checkout to prepare for the wedding. I will be returning to Stirabout Lane the first chance I get! On a side note Jacob's Well hotel is at the end of the street and the bar food was very good there too.

    The location although a little remote was ideal for us for traveling to Wicklow early next morning.. We spent the night in a cabin at the rear of the house which was different a little small,but had everything that we required. breakfast was arranged early and again met with our approval and ample helpings. The hosts were great and very helpful with advice etc all in all a nice experience.

    A hidden gem in Rathdrum, this is a relaxing and very attractive establishment to spend your evenings while exploring the natural, spiritual, and historical areas of Glendelough by day. The room is cheerful and of a fine quality as is a lavish chic breakfast which reflects the care and good taste with attention to detail by the kind owners. Thank you!!!

    Anne was very generous with the breakfast she left for us, and extremely friendly. She and her husband could not have been more helpful. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the bed was comfortable. The place is very central for exploring some of the best bits of County Wicklow by car.

    Tom was friendly and helpful on our arrival, giving us a quick tour of the apartment. The location was good with lots to do in the local area and a good sized shop located just down the road in Rathdrum. It was an excellent base to climb Lugnaquilla (the highest peak in the Wicklow mountains).

    Very private accommodation, and a fantastic base for exploring Wicklow (especially the national park). Jomi was a fantastic host! She was very helpful with suggesting we use her dryer to dry our clothes when it started raining.
