The Coachhouse - self catering accommodation for 4-6 people
Ingrid & Wilfred welcome you to The Coach-House at The Old Rectory - in the village of Emo.
The spacious 'Coachhouse', circa 1785, was formerly a working part of The Old Rectory. It has been tastefully restored with a high vaulted ceiling, traditional cut stone finishes and graceful arches looking out on the rolling pastures of Coolbanagher. Scenically located with private garden and patio areas where children can play safely and, weather permitting, barbecue for dinner. Get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and experience the peaceful location of The Coach-house, yet be in easy reach of local towns and villages. Perhaps visiting one of the local pubs for a 'traditional night of Irish music' or going to a night club in Portlaoise's '5' star Heritage Hotel. Why not try lawn bowls at The Heritage Country Club?
