This cottage exceeded my expectations on all measures. I can tell a lot of thought and creativity went into the design and structure of it. It's the cosiest place I ever did stay. For anyone wanting to know there was coffee, milk, condiments, cutlery, dishes, cookware, towels, loo roll, kitchen roll, extra on beds pillows, extra bed wear under sofa, dishwasher (with tablets), disinfectant sprays, washing machine, tumbler dryer, TV's, hot tub, first aid kit, wood burning stove, oil heating/radiators, shower gel, hand wash. (P.S, I wanna thank what I assume was a female, for putting the wall mounted mirror that pulls out above the sink. My makeup never looked so good.)

That I didn't stay longer!

Clean and modern. The decor of the cottage is beautiful and the gardens and driveway were kept immaculate! Great property for relaxing after a day exploring. Perfect for families. We had our two dogs and we were able to relax as the whole property is secured with electric gates at the road. Great outdoor area with seating area, tv and hot tub.

The gardens between the cottages are all open, meaning we kept one dog on a lead as we didn’t want her to roam around the other cottages. Not a complaint or problem for us, but if you have a dog with no recall it’s something to be aware of.

Stunning location and views. Perfect, quiet little house. It was great for our weekend away for family wedding. Even attention to small things like leaving us dishwasher tablets and tea/coffee so that our arrival was very comfortable and we could relax straight away. Area was closed off and very safe to let the kids run about. Small play park, swings etc, is a great little touch as well. We didn't use the hot-tub, but if we had stayed longer it would definitely have been great.

Long walk to the pub, other than that, absolutely brilliant all round

Amazing place the cottage was clean & spacious , Rowan went above & beyond for us highly recommend for anyone we Loved it & will be booking again . WiFi was great , added bonus of washer & dryer , dishwasher etc… thank you so much daughter celebrated her 18th with family & friends in Dundalk & was perfect location . Even my family In Ireland we’re impressed with it . Thank you so much .

Nothing ever was brilliant was a brilliant holiday . Been Ireland a couple of times best this is best one yet .

The property was easily accessible from nearby Newry and had lots of necessities even closer by (e.g., petrol, cafes, supermarkets, pubs). It still managed to feel secluded and private, surrounded by stunning Irish mountains.

The property was spacious and thoughtfully designed and furnished. There were carefully considered personal touches throughout which made us feel so welcome. We will definitely be back if we are ever over this side of the world again!

We stayed in the annex on the right. The property was spotless and provided all the amenities we needed. We found that fresh milk had been left for us, along with a packet of chocolate biscuits, which were a lovely touch. We hired a car and were able to park in very close proximity to the property. The owner (Rowan) was very kind and emailed us over the course of the week to ensure that our stay was as smooth as possible. Overall a really lovely place to stay.

Nothing whatsoever

Wonderful spacious accommodation with fantastic outdoor facilities. The huge patio area for each bungalow, was covered and had excellent table and chairs for dining, a gas fired barbeque and a hot tub. Weekend users pay extra for hottub use, but ours was included in our weekly fee. The cottage, both inside and out, was great for entertaining and our visiting families loved it. We have booked to go again!

Some interior features need upgrading, eg beds, sofas, oven and washing machine. However, these were more than adequate for our use.

Everything truly exceeded expectations. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen equipment with everything we needed. The view was spectacular and the outside area with hot tub was outstanding - perfect for our relaxing break. The extra feature of having a TV outside was a great bonus. The host was easy to communicate with if we needed anything. We had a fantastic few days here and will definitely return.

We were only given 4 towels, and as a family of 6 we needed more. Luckily I read other reviews and did bring extra with us.

I stayed here for a wedding I was attending in Kileavy castle estate. I had booked the cabin as there was just the two of us, when we arrived we had been upgraded to one of the cottages, which I was delighted about. The cottage had 2 bedrooms a bathroom and a very spacious kitchen living area, it would be ideal for a 2/3 night stay. I was so impressed by the cottages, beautifully decorated.

This was second time we used Clonlum. Easy access from SE, ideal location & snug/clean property

N/A, but one or two very small issues. Sink stopper did not work in bathroom sink. No hook on back of door in bathroom. Fire alarm sensor over kitchen was constantly bleeping as no battery in same.
