Wicklow for Couples

Reconnect, relax and unwind on a romantic glamping retreat on the edge of the Wicklow Mountains National Park.

Escape to the country and enjoy a couple’s getaway just 1 hour from Dublin and 10 minutes from Glendalough.  Glamping takes all the hassle out of camping and lets you enjoy a stay in the outdoors in a cosy and comfortable way.  Just stick on the whistling kettle and cuddle up together under the blankets.

On Our Farm

Sometimes we just need to slow down, put the screens away and make time to simply be together.

Our unique accommodations offer the perfect combination of life in the great outdoors and cosy comfort, where together you can enjoy the stillness of nature, the starlit sky and the peaceful surroundings of the farm.

  • Donkey Experiences

    Try something fun and new together on one of our Donkey Experiences where you can get to know our lovely donkeys with their furry coats and long ears. You can learn how to care for, brush and feed them and there’s plenty of time for selfies too.  We even take the donkeys for a little walk in the woods and there’s tea and coffee waiting for you when we get home!

  • Horse and Caravan Experience

    Fun Day out with a Horse & Caravan. Enjoy an unforgettable guided tour with a horse and caravan in the Wicklow countryside. Get to know the horses and then set off on the road for a fun guided adventure with your horse and caravan.

  • Romantic Hideaway

    Wake up to the wilderness with nature on your doorstep and friendly donkeys and horses as your new neighbours. A cosy hideaway nestled in the trees with a whole farm waiting to be explored, it’s the perfect place for a stress free break together.

  • Holidays Unplugged

    Switch off the screens and venture away from the city for clear dark nights and the magic of a star filled sky. Nothing says romance like a night snuggled up beside the campfire with a nice glass of wine or a good cold beer.

Beautiful facility in a stunningly beautiful location. The kids had a ball and absolutely loved the donkeys. The donkey walk was really enjoyable and the staff couldn’t have been nicer. We had a great 2 days and our grandchildren want to return.
