What Greets You at McEvoy Holiday Cottage, Dundalk

Over 200 years old, McEvoy Farm cottage is a beautiful and traditional

cottage, which was once part of a small 15 acre farm. The property has

recently been extensively but gently refurbished, with care being taken to

ensure it has retained its unique charm and character, while offering all the

luxury and comfort one expects from a holiday rental cottage.

Situated in a quiet rural setting McEvoy Cottage is perfectly located to enjoy

... all the local amenities, from beautiful beaches to cosy family run pubs and

restaurants. On top of that the cottage is just five minutes drive from the

busy town of Dundalk and the award winning Dundalk (racing) Stadium, 2

minutes drive from the renowned Ballymascanlon golf course, and only a 10

min drive from the beautiful medieval village of Carlingford.

views of the Cooley mountains and across Dundalk Estuary. The third

bedroom (smaller bedroom with double bed)-- on the ground floor -- has

access to the back garden through double patio doors. The main bathroom is

spacious and comfortable with a corner bath and separate shower unit.

The country style kitchen/dining room is at the heart of the house and is fully
