Make Bettystown House Your Home This Christmas Season - A Cosy, Private Escape in Meath
This Christmas and New Year, families and friends can gather under one roof at Bettystown House, with the rare opportunity to have an entire historic Irish house and its surrounding estate to themselves. Beautifully decorated for Christmas, the house offers a private and relaxed setting to celebrate together, with guests welcomed on arrival with mulled wine and mince pies.
Set on 13 acres in Bettystown, Co. Meath, just minutes from the coast and around 35 minutes from Dublin Airport, Bettystown House offers an alternative to the traditional hotel break, a private country house where guests can slow down, spend time together and make the house their own.
Available for exclusive hire, Bettystown House accommodates groups across its nine elegant en-suite bedrooms, with spacious communal areas providing a setting for long lunches, cosy dinners, evenings by the fire and relaxed mornings together.
Recognised by the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage for its historical and architectural significance, the house has been thoughtfully restored by the Ryan family, who acquired the property in 2022. Surrounded by gardens, woodland, parkland and a pond, the estate offers plenty of space to get outdoors, while Bettystown Beach and the east coast are just minutes away.
Guests have complete flexibility over how they spend their time at Bettystown House, with dining and catering available as optional additions to their private stay. Groups can choose to bring their own food and make use of the house as they please, or add a private chef experience for bespoke dining, or have ready-to-cook dinners prepared for them for an easy and relaxed option that allows guests to enjoy restaurant-quality food in the privacy of the house.
Chef Aidan Ryan, whose experience includes Ballymaloe Cookery School and Dublin's Michelin-starred Chapter One and L'Ecrivain, creates menus that celebrate Irish ingredients and the seasons, with tailored dining options available for guests. Guests can also visit the Ryan family's multi-award-winning TRIBE Restaurant in nearby Duleek, while The Barn, adjacent to the house, offers coffee, sweet treats and wood-fired pizza.
Bettystown House is also available for pre-Christmas corporate stays and festive celebrations, offering an intimate alternative to larger party venues, with custom dining and event options available.
For those looking to extend the celebrations into the New Year, the house is available over New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, providing the perfect setting to welcome 2027 together. Gather the group, settle in for a private celebration and start the new year with a refreshing walk along Bettystown Beach.
Located in Betaghstown, Bettystown, Co. Meath, A92 ND62. Private stays at Bettystown House start from €2,400 per night for up to 18 guests, with custom packages available.
