Wonderful host in great location, about a 40 min walk through the beautiful first trail (well-paved) to the ruins of Glendalough Cathedral. Lovely accommodations- my room had the most beautiful skylight w a blind. Windows open for a comfortable night’s sleep in this quiet village

The house was very clean and inviting. The view out the back windows was just beautiful of the mountains. Erica made us feel welcomed right away. Our room was immaculate and the bed very comfortable. There is a tasty and fun restaurant 1 minute walk from the house. The access to the hiking trails and sites are just minutes up the road and should not be missed. Great location - would definitely stay again!

Everything about the stay was wonderful. Yep the scones were beautifully homemade as was the wonderful breakfast. We even enjoyed a ride to and from the local pub. Out of the park hospitality. Highly recommended if in the vicinity!

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.
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.

It was fantastic trip, scenery was amazing. We stayed at Glendalough glamping and expectations exceeded itself. It was spotless and both Debbie and Pat were very helpful and friendly. Recommend the Wicklow heather for food.

Pleasant village in beautiful scenery.
Cafe/deli very good
Wicklow Heather had good food
Swimming in Upper lake was fabulous during the heat wave
Rockpools on Glendasan River lovely for a dip
Great hiking trails
Historic monastic city full of history but definite lack of information placards on key sights.
Visitor centre not open
Quick check in and a good sized room and bathroom. Good sized restaurant and pub down below. Food was acceptable; bar choices were broad. Excellent location relative to Glendalough and Powerscourt sites although road sizes will be a bit disconcerting to many American drivers. Limited alternative dining options available although restaurant up the street was quite good. Was quiet despite pub being right downstairs.
Mary is an excellent host, very pleasant. The room was nice and comfortable. The b&b is walking distance to glendalough and The Wicklow Heather restaurant. We got drenched during our walk and the small hairdryer was actually a life saver! Small things like that make a massive difference. It was a wonderful experience and I would gladly recommend it to anyone looking to explore glendalough area.
Love this house, it is such a gem in a beautiful and historic part of Ireland. This was the original school house and subsequently operated as a restaurant. The owner maintains it with such character and style. The conservatory and TV room really are the icing on the cake. Great for a family re union.
We came up to Laragh on a nice Sunday. The area is beautiful. The room was in the front of the house, very quiet and larger than expected. The simple offerings for breakfast were great and room was comfortable with small seating area included. Very clean. Host gave us directions to pub.
I loved everything- the decor, cleanliness, the staff, the deer roaming the property. The restaurant Wicklow Heather that we went to for dinner and breakfast had amazing food, whiskey and the staff were terrific. We enjoyed every moment and would go there again- thank you so much
This property is well situated a few metres from the fantastic Heather Wicklow restaurant and the pub and only 2kms from Glendalough. We stayed in a very comfortable room in the main house which is beautifully decorated with lovely sitting rooms in the common areas.
Great location, quiet yet close to restaurant and pub. Very short drive to Glendalough. Longer walk but certainly doable. Friendly staff, delicious breakfast, comfortable room and beds, parking right outside, relaxing garden that backs up to the river
Since I was hiking the WIcklow Way I liked that I could choose my breakfast time without bothering anyone. The room was lovely, very well decorated, spacious and comfortable. The location isn't bad - a fairly easy walk into the center of Laragh.
Staff extremely friendly! The views were breathtaking!! The bbq area was lovely in between all the trees!! Short distance to laragh where you can get all the supplies you will need!! Stayed an extra night - which say’s a lot! Will be back soon!
While there are no restaurant facilities at the lodge, the Heather House Restaurant is a very short walk. We had a wonderful dinner there the night we arrived. In addition, you get 10% off breakfast and it was outstanding!
Our room was lovely, the location was great - within walking distance of bars/restaurants and very close to Glendalough. The breakfast was one of the nicest I've had in a hotel and the host was very friendly.
Beautiful location, friendly staff, cozy, the room had everything we needed, we had our own outdoor entrance so we didn't have to go through the hotel to get to our room.
Great location close to Glendalough, with a shop and two restaurants/pubs close by. Clean, comfortable rooms in lovely surroundings. Friendly and caring staff.
