Exceptionally kind reception, Manager (Mazzen) went above and beyond to accommodate me. I went to hike for 3 days in Glendalough Park and it was amazing.

The cozy little studio was perfect for our family of 3. A short drive away from scenic walks, a good restaurant and a quiet place if you want to just spend time indoors relaxing or outdoor within the property with your children.
FOREST VIEW Woodland lodge enjoys a location in Ballard, 2.6 miles from Glendalough Monastery and 16 miles from Wicklow Gaol.

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.

Our hostess, Ericka, was very pleasant and helpful. She made us feel like valued guests or even family. The Lodge common rooms were very comfortable and tea, coffee, and tasty snacks were available at all hours. The grounds are very nice as well. The area around Laragh is beautiful with Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains nearby. An especially nice feature of our stay was the free driver service to the local restaurant, The Wicklow Heather, where the food and atmosphere were both excellent. We will definitely stay here in future.
This is a fantastic property in a perfect location- right on the edge of the Wicklow Mountains National Park. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the continental breakfast was convenient, tasty, and plentiful. Our host Sharon was super helpful, and she really went "above and beyond" when she mailed (at her expense!) my wife's jewelry bag to our home in the U.S. after it was left behind accidentally. Overall, this property is an outstanding value and would give it my highest recommendation!
The location is excellent for hikers and the little cabins are comfortable and make a unique experience to sleep in. As the beds were very comfortable we slept really well and, as there is basically only nature around you, it is very quite.
The shared bathrooms have individual cabins for taking a shower, and were very clean. There is a well-staffed kitchen if you want to cook your own dinner, or you can take a 7 minute walk down to the village to eat at a restaurant.
We had such a wonderful experience with our stay. It exceeded our expectations. The Heather House is such a pretty place. The grounds are beautiful. My husband and I sat outdoors with a glass of wine and enjoy how quaint the place was. Registration was easy and staff was very nice. We also went next door to the Heather Restaurant. It was also so pleasant and the food was delicious. Both dinner and breakfast. I highly recommended this place.
The host we met, Erica, was just a joy, even in the wet weather she was beaming. I don't know if she was the owner but had that level of pride. Made sure we were okay. The grounds are landscaped, with lovely features. The "room" hard to describe as was so taking aback, good space, clean, privacy half partitions separating beds and living area.. Prefer this over a stuffy hotel room.
We enjoyed our room with two beds, both of which were extremely comfortable. Our room was very clean as were the rest of facilities.
While we drove to the parking lot to do our hiking around Glendalough Upper Lake, Tudor Lodge is within easy walking distance of some of the trails around Glendalough/Wicklow Mountain National Park.
Had a wonderful night at the hotel. Friendliest staff you'll ever meet. Loved the treatment & guidance from the reception. They made my stay quite memorable & pleasant. Great location for those who intend to escape from big towns and enjoy outdoor activities + seeking peace and quietness. Stunning scenery. Loved the meals too.
This was a good value for money option in a great (and very beautiful) location in the Laragh/Glendalough area. In easy walking distance to the Glendalough monastic complex and national park area. The owner was friendly and helpful and the room was comfortable and clean. Can't ask for much more.
Old worldly feeling of this hotel. Service was excellent. The location in the Victoria district meant it is proximate to many bars and restaurants including a venue The Corner where authentic old time music is played. Stroll across the bridge and you are in the town centre.
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.
The staff are always very welcoming and helpful. We love the pub which is attached to the hotel. Live music on Wednesday night. Food was beautiful in restaurant and for breakfast. Location is perfect for glendalough.
He location, the nature, the nearby archeological sites, and the wonderfully helpful receptionist and caretaker Eugenio. He is the best of Spain in the best of Ireland.
Great location close to Glendalough, with a shop and two restaurants/pubs close by. Clean, comfortable rooms in lovely surroundings. Friendly and caring staff.
The best thing about this hotel is the staff. Everyone is very relaxed and friendly. Also very helpful. It is perfect location to hike the Wicklow area.
