Cottages (3) à Lough Sillan House : usage exclusif, acceptant les chiens, jacuzzi & sauna

Bring everyone together at Lough Sillan House with an exclusive stay across all three cottages, set around a secluded courtyard in a peaceful lakeside setting in Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands.

Sleeping 6–8 adults, it works beautifully for three couples, close friends, adult family groups, reunions, special celebrations or simply a few days away with people you love spending time with. You have the freedom to be together without having to be together every minute: three individual cottages give everyone their own space and privacy, while the courtyard, gardens, lake, spa and outdoor kitchen create wonderful shared spaces.

When you book all three cottages, the experience is part of the stay. Your group has exclusive use of Lough Sillan Lakeside Spa during spa opening times, including the hot tub, sauna, relaxation room, hot shower and direct access to the lake for a cold dip.

The three cottages – Copper Cove, Linden Lodge and Little Gem – are beautifully restored 200-year-old buildings, each with its own character.

Copper Cove is a cosy retreat for two, with original stonework and a wood-burning stove.
Linden Lodge, once a stable, offers a more spacious open-plan layout sleeping 2–4.
Little Gem is an intimate stone cottage for two, with coloured leaded glass from 200-year-old panes helping to shape its distinctive interior.

Together they offer the unusual combination of a group getaway with genuine personal space.

Outside, 9.5 acres of gardens, woodland and lakeshore are yours to explore. You can kayak or paddleboard on Lough Sillan, swim, wander through the gardens, find a quiet place for a picnic or simply sit by the water and enjoy the view.

The covered outdoor kitchen, housed within the original forge building, becomes the natural gathering place for a group stay. There is space to cook, eat, sit and spend time together, with a BBQ and pizza oven making relaxed meals easy. It works just as well for morning coffee as it does for a long dinner or evening drinks.

One price. No surprise extras.

We want groups to be able to settle in and enjoy their stay rather than discover a series of additional charges.

Dogs are welcome when all three cottages are booked together.

We personally welcome guests to Lough Sillan House and show you around the cottages, gardens and spa when you arrive. We live on the property and are nearby if you need anything, while giving your group the privacy and freedom to enjoy the place as your own.

Despite feeling wonderfully secluded, Lough Sillan House is easy to reach and is approximately an hour from both Dublin and Belfast. Shops, cafés and everyday essentials are within 10–15 minutes, and several excellent golf courses are nearby.

For groups, two nights works especially well. One evening disappears remarkably quickly once everyone has arrived, settled into their cottages, enjoyed the spa and shared a meal. A second night gives you time to kayak, explore the gardens, cook together, enjoy the lake and still have plenty of time to do very little at all.

That is really what an exclusive stay at Lough Sillan House is about: time together, room to breathe and nowhere else you need to be.

I think this is materially stronger than the current version because the commercial proposition becomes obvious in the first few paragraphs, rather than the guest having to read nearly to the bottom before discovering all the things that come with the cottages.
