Glenmalure

Glenmalure offers Ireland's highest category of self-catering accommodation. You will discover this luxurious log cabin tucked away in the Glenmalure valley deep in the heart of the Wicklow mountains. Glenmalure is 65 kilometres (40 miles) south of Dublin City (approximately one hours drive away) and only 13 kilometre (8 miles) down the road from Glendalough. Glenmalure Golf Club is just 100 meters away.

The log cabin

This self-catering lodge sleeps 5 (+1). Tourism Ireland has awarded the property 4 stars, which is the highest possible ranking in the self-catering class. The log cabin is built using 100-year-old spruce on the exterior and solid pine on the interior. In the main living area the high ceilings and terracotta floor tiling give both a spacious and cosy atmosphere. During the winter evenings you can put your feet up and relax in front of the free-standing wood-burning stove and indulge in a glass of wine while reading a good book or select from our extensive range of DVDs or satellite TV channels.

The Location

This cluster of Scandinavian built log cabins are tucked away on a southwest facing hillside with spectacular views up Ireland's longest and most majestic glacial valley. In spring and summer you can sit out and enjoy the pure tranquillity of the valley with only the flow of the distant Avonbeg river to break the silence. The view from the south and west-facing veranda of the sun setting down over the valley is second to none.

Activities

In the surrounding hills and valleys you will find a whole range of activities such as golfing, hill walking (check out the photos from the hikes our guests have done), angling, canoeing and horse riding to name but a few. The famous Glendalough is only a few kilometres up the road. And of course you will find a healthy number of vibrant pubs and restaurants.
