Killua is a historic castle located in the most romantic demesne in Ireland with links to Sir Walter Raleigh and Lawrence of Arabia.

The castle, which long lay in ruins, has been fully restored and is now dedicated to expressing and sharing our greatest passions: history, art, environmental conservation, regenerative farming, and gastronomy.

The guided tour of the castle consists of an approximately 50 min. visit to the main rooms of Killua Castle, all located on the ground floor, with an optional visit to the 18th century kitchen in the cellars!

We are so grateful to all the people who have chosen Betty’s Cottage for their stay in Clonmellon since we started out with our new venture. We had the pleasure of welcoming some lovely guests to the cottage and we are overwhelmed by the good wishes and level of support we have received from people far and wide. These are a sample of comments left by some of our wonderful guest recently.

We look forward to welcoming many more guests to our lovely little cottage.

And if you haven’t already done so, we would love if you like and share our page.

The weather forecast is excellent for next week and well in to next weekend. Hopefully we won’t have to light up the wood burning stove at Betty’s Cottage for quite some time. 🤞🤞🌞🌞

A small piece of history.

Little is known about when Betty’s Cottage was originally constructed. However what is known is that my grandfather and grandmother purchased the property along with 10 acres of land in February 1930.

This is a copy of the advertisement that appeared in the Meath Chronicle Newspaper on February 8th 1930.

Please take a moment to like and share Betty’s Cottage page.

Thank you.

(Apologises for the poor print quality in the advertisement).
