Ohhh how we love a spa, and on our travels we have indulged in a few but none come near Aqua Sana Day Spa Center Parcs Ireland.

Last weekend, along with my group of childhood girlfriends, we spent an incredible relaxing full day at the spa, followed by a night of laughs at Dillon School house which is only a 25mins drive!

Go on, get the gang together and book that perfect catch up!

Fancy a break but also have to check in with work? 💻
We have transformed the old cloak room into a modern office space!

With Highspeed broadband, a very comfy office chair, the original teachers desk and duel aspect garden views, I can testify it's a really beautiful space to work in.

Entertaining or Hygge - why not both?

We lived in Denmark for a few years and embraced hygge.. getting cosy, wrapping up in throws, lighting candles, the essence of all things cosy!
However, sometimes, you just want to party! 🤩 Spending time with friends and family, good music, great food and drink, greats laughs, dancing like no ones watching! At Dillon School House we have designed the living space for both!!

Entertaining
Our large kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could want to host a fab get together!
Our handmade oak dining table can comfortable seat 10 with lots of expanse for that dancing! Having the sitting room wall open means everyone is still part of the party, even when resting their dancing feet on our bespoke couch.

Hygge - Cosy
Want some quiet time to relax with a good book in front of a log fire? We got you covered!
Grab a good read from our collection, pour yourself a cappuccino and relax in one of the authentic Irish crafted mid-century armchairs in front of the log fire.
Or
Close over the concealed wall to transform the sitting room into "the snug". With its large smart tv, electric fire, board games and huge bespoke couch that was made for lounging, you will definitely become a hygge expert in no time 😃
