County Louth cottages

Set on the coast of the Republic of Ireland, right on the border with Northern Ireland, County Louth is steeped in history and legend. The tiny region is the smallest of Ireland’s 32 counties, but the diminutive area it occupies is packed with history, culture and places of interest. Take a look at our collection of holiday cottages in County Louth, including some fabulous coastal properties, and you’ll soon be looking forward to a holiday full of coastal adventure. Perhaps you’re planning a romantic getaway, or a family holiday to a dog-friendly cottage? There is no shortage of things to do in County Louth, whether you choose to embrace the great outdoors with activities at Carlingford Adventure Centre, or opt for a more sedate day out, following in the footsteps of Cromwell as you explore the town of Drogheda.  

The county town of County Louth is Dundalk, a fascinating coastal enclave at the mouth of the Castletown River. With music, entertainment and arts spaces aplenty, it exudes culture, and is a great base for day trips to Carlingford Lough and the rest of the county. An experience not to miss is a journey on the Carlingford Ferry to County Down, opening up yet more beautiful landscapes to discover. History enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice, with one of the top heritage picks in County Louth being Ardee Castle, Ireland’s largest fortified medieval tower house, which sits on the main street of Ardee. Monasterboice Monastic Site is another striking historic attraction, whose high cross and round tower are quite a spectacle. And when it comes to coastal beauty, don’t miss the delightful villages of Termonfeckin, with its beach and castle, and Clogherhead, a haven for fishing and water sports.
