Ballinakill Enfield – Ireland.

Aden Retreat is home to one of Ireland’s only warm springs, St. Gorman’s Well. The Coach House is a two hundred year old building on the farm with four bedrooms designed to boutique standards with a stylish, rustic interior, superking beds, rain showers and crisp white linen. It can sleep up to 12, has a fully equipped self-catering kitchen, cosy sitting room and living area.

Guests are welcome to chill out in the gardens, ramble around the farm, through the fields and woods. They can play tennis, table tennis, croquet or other lawn games, and even replenish mind and body when classes are available in the yoga studio. On wetter days, the living room has board games, a TV, huge DVD collection for kids and grown ups and lots of books and magazines.

ACCOMMODATION

Available to rent, the Coach House is a lovingly restored stone building with four ensuite bedrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen and two cosy sitting rooms. The bedrooms all open onto a sunny courtyard.

The rooms can be made up as singles with additional beds added if needed, so the entire coach house can sleep up to ten comfortably.

The sitting room looks out on the tennis court and has books, games and a huge, comfy sofa. A separate area upstairs has a cinema projector with lots of DVDs, day beds and giant bean bag so parents and kids can hang out within earshot without being on top of each other. It’s perfect for families or groups planning weekends away or catch-ups.

The grounds have a tennis court and 20 acres of fields and woods to ramble in. We’re also 5 mins from the 130km Royal Canal Greenway linking Dublin and Longford. We are 6 mins from Enfield and have great pubs within a short drive. Trim Castle is less than 20 minutes away.

Self Catering

There is an oven, four ring hob, Nespresso coffee machine, kettle, tea and coffee, plus a toaster, fridge and plenty of our own homemade elderflower cordial. There is a bottle of this delicious cordial in your room, with still and sparkling spring water direct from our own well at the house.

Although it’s self-catering, we make sure the kitchen is stocked with enough supplies to get you going with a hearty breakfast on your first morning, including eggs, bagels, fresh OJ, bagels, bread, cereals, bread etc.

LOCATION

Guests can make themselves at home and ramble about on the farm, gardens, woodland and meadow. Aden is home to some amazing, two hundred year old specimen trees including one of the largest sycamores in Ireland and a giant redwood brought from America as a seed by the original owners of the house. We have two friendly dogs, ponies, sheep and one very naughty donkey who loves to be fed carrots! We have a tennis court, boules, croquet lawn, badminton and plenty of garden games to enjoy.
