We stayed at 9 B & B's during our recent trip to Ireland and Coolakay House was in our top 2 favourites. Yvonne was SO nice and welcomed us with tea and biscuits. She was very helpful to us in getting to Dublin and taking the bus. Her breakfasts were excellent! The homemade Irish soda bread was the best of... More

Coolakay House was one of the highlights of our trip. Everything about it was perfect. VERY clean, VERY friendly, and the scenery was out of this world. Yvonne was very accommodating in every possible way. You were more than a guest, you were treated like family. I highly recommend this B&B, and I give it an A+ rating. MJ Allen,... More

The views and room were lovely, but I have to say that the owner was inappropriate at times. I was there with my boyfriend and my sister and her husband, who were visiting me for the weekend. The owner Yvonne--I think her name was, pinched my boyfriend's butt as we were leaving to go out for the night. And the... More

Coolakay House is the best B&B. Yvonne is really nice host. It was our first time in Ireland and Coolakay House but for sure not the last, because Ireland, specially Co. Wicklow is beautiful. 100% I van recomend B&B -Coolakay House. More

Warm and comfortable with beautiful views of the Wicklow Mountains from the bedrooms, sitting room and breakfast area. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble for Yvonne who ferried us to and fro from our walking stop/start points and also to the restaurant in the evenings. Not to mention helping to dry out our sodden walking gear in readiness for the... More

Yvonne typifies your best Irish host. Welcoming, friendly, informative, can't do enough for you. Arrived late on a Friday night so she set about making sandwiches at no extra charge. Tea and cakes on tap every day. Very comfortable rooms, just everything we needed. We were walking the Wicklow Way in the worst storms for 50 years, she got us... More

Spent one night here before returning to the UK on the ferry. Arrived later than we planned but it was no problem. The host was really nice, the views and the garden very picturesque, the rooms warm and comfortable. Went to the restaurant Yvonne recommended that evening - good choice. The plentiful breakfast was just the thing for our long... More

Dreaming about sweet dales and hills,green pastures,woods and streaming waters- we are from Jerusalem,on the threshold of the desert-once we arrived at Coolakay House everything was beyond our expectations. On top of that here is the unparalleled hospitality with which both Yvonne and Monika have received us with. Instead of the 2 planned nights we stayed 5 altogether. And we... More
