Unwind and enjoy the natural beauty surrounding this historic getaway. A 300-year-old Georgian hayloft that has been lovingly converted into a cosy, modern space. Set in the heart of a regenerative family run farm. Enjoy fresh farm eggs for breakfast or a delicious coffee from our rustic farm shop "The Piggery" open on weekends throughout Summer. Located near the sleepy village of Kilmessan, 1.5km from Station House Hotel, 6km’s from the ancient Hill of Tara, a 45-minute drive from Dublin. Walk up the unique industrial staircase into a light, cosy loft apartment. Upstairs consists of a bedroom with two comfy single beds and large sliding cupboards. Further down the hall a bathroom with both a bath and a shower. The main living area is open plan with a central wood burning stove, kitchen, dining area and sitting area. Above the sitting area is a mezzanine accessed by a metal spiral staircase with a large double bed. Fall asleep to the cosy crackle from the central fireplace. Located in the heart of Swainstown a regenerative farm growing chemical free vegetables, flowers, lamb and free range eggs. The Hayloft is conveniently located opposite our rustic farm shop "The Piggery" which is open on the weekends from April to Halloween. You can purchase our fresh produce here and enjoy a delicious cup of coffee whilst sitting outside watching the chickens roam around. The farm shop courtyard has picnic benches outside and airbnb guests are welcome to use them as an outside dining option during the week. Pull on those wellies and get out into nature. We have provided a map of the walks on the farm. We do not maintain the pathways as part of the regenerative process is allowing the wild spaces to be wild to promote biodiversity. The farm has a wealth of flora & fauna and you might catch a glimpse of deer, badgers, pine martens, foxes and incredible bird and insect life.
I'm already planning a return visit if that's anything to go by! The Hayloft is a gorgeous place to stay, the surroundings and farm are a lovely setting. The first thing we did when we arrived was take photos, it's stunning. Very comfortable and cosy also. Larissa is a great host, quick responses and very clear communication throughout. 100% worth the visit.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful space! It was a wonderful stay with everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Unreal Stay, perfect escape. I would highly recommend Larissa as host. She is charming, kind and polite and you can sense she truly wants you to enjoy what was once was her home. The stove is awesome and kitchen well equipped. We visited the Hot Box Saunas close by complimented with a cold dip in the Boyne. Fantastic for a reset. Beautiful walks on the farm and a short distance to the mystical Hill of Tara! Shops are a short drive / a walk to Kilmessan Village for essentials and the people on the farm were very friendly. There were some free range eggs on arrival that were delicious with some thoughtful milk and butter too. We’ll be back.
We had such a fabulous stay at Larissa’s Airbnb . It was exactly as described and very well equipped. The air bnb itself was spotless and beautifully decorated with some lovely touches. The stove made it so cosy and homely, it was so lovely in the evenings to sit in front of the fire with a glass of wine and play a board game. Larissa’s air bnb is the perfect place to unwind. It was so relaxing and peaceful. The grounds are lovely and picturesque. There is a map of the farm and surrounding areas which has some lovely walks. Fergie’s which is less than a 5 minute drive away is a lovely pub to go to for food and drinks. We went to Trim which is only 10 minutes away which also has great food and drink options. The air bnb has plenty of sites to visit nearby. Larissa was an excellent and friendly host. She was extremely accommodating and very helpful. I would highly recommend staying at the Hayloft and I already look forward to returning.
