In response to the growing demand for budget accommodation, Ashfield House has adapted their self-catering chalets for hostel purposes. Three chalets of varying sizes are ideal for small groups of between 4 and 8 to take an entire chalet to themselves. It is also flexible enough to cater for single walkers and couples.
Each chalet has its own self-catering kitchen and living area. Most private bedrooms have an ensuite and there is a TV available to watch in each living room. Guests are welcome to enjoy the large garden outside, with views across the valley to where the Wicklow Way crosses the foot of Ballycumber Hill.
