Listoke House

Listoke House in Drogheda is a peaceful country-house stay set among gardens, woodland, and open farmland, designed for a quiet reset rather than a busy hotel scene.

Spacious en-suite suites: Listoke Courtyard Accommodation offers three large en-suite rooms with scenic views across the courtyard, gardens, and surrounding landscape. Room options include the Jameson Suite (with a freestanding bath) plus the Woolsey and Cairns suites (each with bath and walk-in shower).

Grounds you can actually use: Guests get free access to the gardens and woods, which makes morning walks and downtime on-site a real highlight. The setting blends historic character with a calm, rural feel.

Extra touches for a slow stay: A cosy Garden Pavilion is sometimes available for picnics or takeaways, with a log-burning fire for cooler evenings. There’s also a covered outdoor smoking area.

Hosts and atmosphere: The hosts aim to balance privacy with a warm welcome, and the property is also used for retreats and workshops. On-site options can include holistic therapies and classes like yoga and pilates.

Good base for day trips: You’re about 4 km from Drogheda, around 20 minutes by road from Brú na Bóinne (Newgrange), and well placed for coastal villages like Clogherhead and Carlingford.

Transport limitations: Listoke House is not on a bus route, so most guests will rely on a car or taxis for evenings out and sightseeing.

Small-scale facilities: With only three rooms, services and on-site “hotel-style” amenities may feel limited if you prefer a full-service property.
