Autumn is the perfect time to slow down, step away from the screens and enjoy a little more of what is right in front of you.

Leave the busy pace of everyday life behind and enjoy peaceful countryside surroundings, cosy evenings and quality time together. And if putting your phone away is easier said than done, you can book a Stolp Box for your stay to help you properly disconnect.

Head to The Den for board games and books, enjoy a walk through the countryside, relax by the fire or simply spend an evening chatting without the constant distraction of notifications.

Why not make your digital detox even more special with champagne, flowers or chocolates waiting for you on arrival, or a delicious meal delivered straight to your cottage?

Whether you're an experienced angler or simply enjoy peaceful days outdoors, there's no shortage of fantastic locations nearby.

After a day on the water, return to your cottage, enjoy your complimentary wellness session and relax in the peaceful surroundings of the Meath countryside.

A huge thank you to Sue for taking the time to share such a wonderful review following her family's stay with us.

"My extended family & I enjoyed a fabulous holiday at Decoy Country Cottages. We were a group of 12 adults and 5 children, occupying 3 of the cottages. The description of cottages does not do the accommodations justice. Those we stayed in were really spacious and comfortable, having everything you could need. The properties and facilities are wonderful, and could not have been more ideal for the holiday we wanted. Everything exceeded our expectations, which were already high. The children enjoyed all the play areas, and seeing the animals, including newly hatched chicks. The hospitality, & all the help that Paula and Rachel gave us was fantastic, & much appreciated. We all had an amazing time, and made some very special memories. We hope to come back."

We look forward to welcoming you all back again!
