The main guest bedroom has access to its own bell tower/reading room with great views of the surrounding countryside and a private bathroom complete with claw-foot bathtub. This room has a king size bed and a single bed and can accommodate three people. For larger groups a second room is available (with a king size bed), so Bookeen Hall can accommodate up to five guests.
Bookeen Hall is a former Church of Ireland Chapel. Part of the Dunsandle estate, the church was used for services by the estate’s Church of Ireland congregation. Built in stone, the rectangular hall with its large gothic windows and solid bell-tower can be seen across fields and woodland, making it a distinctive and well known local landmark.
The loveliest breakfast, chilled atmosphere, scenic surroundings and one incredibly soulful house! Makes for so many photo opportunities! Chris and Orla are very helpful and charismatic hosts.
This was the best place we stayed during our trip to Ireland. The work they’ve done to turn a 200 year old church into a home is incredible. We were in awe. Chris and Orla are fantastic hosts and they make your stay very special.
Absolutely amazing! One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. A true gem and beautiful home with amazing people and dogs. Breakfast and hospitality was beyond all expectations. Would highly and without a doubt recommend to all!
Our stay was lovely. It was a pleasure to come back to this magical place after 4 years. The big plus: the breakfast, which was masterful, as well as the dog company which was adorable.
From the time we booked this beautiful & historical location to the moment we left, Chris and Orla were very welcoming, friendly and helpful! They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and their kindness was not surpassed our entire trip to the country. Breakfast was abundant and delicious!! Thank you for the best experience!! We are so grateful!!
